Song of BeginningsŌhashi Takuya (Sukima Suicchi)
Takuya Ohashi, a singer-songwriter who shines as a member of Sukima Switch and is also active as a solo artist.
His debut single “Hajimari no Uta,” chosen as the campaign song for U-Can 2008, is memorable for its intro where the guitar, bass, and piano each weave standout phrases.

Ai Kawashima’s “Tabidachi no Hi ni…” is a song loved by many as a celebration of new beginnings with the arrival of spring.
Released in 2003 under the name I WiSH, it’s also known as the original version of the smash hit “Ashita e no Tobira,” which broke into the top 10 on the Oricon charts.

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.
Sakura (2019)Moriyama Naotaro
Singer-songwriter Naotaro Moriyama captivates fans with a voice instantly recognizable at first listen, blending in his distinctive falsetto.
His digital single “Sakura (2019),” an arrangement of his signature second single “Sakura (Docusho),” drew attention when it was chosen as the theme song for the TV drama “My Fellow Coworker, Sakura.” Its message—believing that we will meet again someday, even as we face the reality of parting from friends—resonates ever more deeply as graduation approaches.
It’s an unfading ballad and a classic you’ll want to sing at karaoke in March, a month that marks a key milestone in life.
Far, far awayMakihara Noriyuki
This is an early masterpiece by Noriyuki Makihara, a genius singer-songwriter who represents Japan.
Although it wasn’t released as a single, it first appeared as an album track on his second album, “Kimi wa Boku no Takaramono” (1992), and it’s highly popular and well-known—one of his signature songs that’s frequently included on best-of compilations.
As Makihara himself has described it as “semi-autobiographical,” the lyrics, addressed to friends back in his hometown, are especially relatable for anyone who moved to Tokyo from the countryside.
Many people leave their hometowns in March to start new lives in April.
If you ever feel lonely in your new place, sing this song and let it give you the courage to take a step forward.
