Sakura SongKANA-BOON
Sakura no Uta by KANA-BOON portrays someone conveying their feelings to the person they love through a song.
It’s included on their 2013 mini-album “Boku ga CD wo Dashitara.” Set to a characteristically fast-paced KANA-BOON melody, the lyrics express the clumsy, earnest heart of someone who struggles to honestly convey their feelings to the one they like.
Before the moment comes when they won’t be able to meet anymore, they sing a song packed to the brim with their deep feelings for that special person.
If you also find it hard to express your feelings to someone you like, trying to convey them through music is highly recommended!
