A song that evokes a refreshing sense of spring is Takako Matsu’s “Ashita, Haru ga Kitara” (“Tomorrow, If Spring Comes”).

Released in 1997 as her debut single, it drew attention because Matsu, a leading actress, was making her singing debut.

It reached No.

8 on the Oricon Singles Chart and was used as the commercial song for NTT’s “Wakuwaku New Life Campaign.” With its relaxed tempo and refreshing sound perfect for spring, it’s a pleasantly soothing pop tune.

Come, spring.Matsutōya Yumi

When it comes to beautiful spring songs with a somewhat traditional Japanese sound and melody, Yumi Matsutoya’s “Haru yo, Koi” comes to mind.

Released in 1994 as her 26th single, this masterpiece topped the Oricon singles chart.

You’ve probably heard its striking piano intro at least once.

The lyrics, which express the fragile yearning for spring in classical-style Japanese, are very memorable and were later included in music and language textbooks.

Matsutoya is known for the appeal of her lower vocal range, so it’s a great recommendation for those who find high notes challenging.
