Song of DepartureMr.Children
A single released in 2007.
March is a time when some people graduate and others embark on new journeys.
As we live, we face various inner conflicts and regrets like “If only I had done this back then…”.
This is a gentle song that feels like it embraces all of that.
Mr.
Children’s tender sound and Sakurai’s vocals move me yet again.
Listening to “Tabidachi no Uta” makes me feel that looking back isn’t such a bad thing.
When I’m feeling sentimental, it truly seeps into my heart.
Please give it a listen when you’re tired.
Sakura RabbitKawasaki Takaya
A song that delicately portrays the feelings of a girl attending her graduation ceremony under the cherry blossoms.
Released in January 2021, it centers on the protagonist “Sakura Usagi,” who lacks the courage to confess her feelings.
The poignant lyrics paired with Takaya Kawasaki’s husky vocals resonate deeply with listeners.
In December 2021, Kawasaki released the album “Calendar” through Warner Music Japan.
His experiences and emotions from high school are said to have influenced his songwriting.
This piece offers comfort to those wrestling with the frustration of having something to say but being unable to put it into words.
It’s the perfect song for anyone looking to take a new step forward with the arrival of spring.
Cherry Blossom BookmarkAKB48
Sakura no Shiori, released in February 2010 by AKB48—a group emblematic of the idol scene since the 2000s—is, as the title suggests, a classic, straightforward graduation song.
Unusually for an idol single, it takes the form of a choral piece, and it was even included in music textbooks, so some people may have actually sung it at school.
Arranged by Kenichi Mitsuda of KENSO, the song is so fully realized as a “choral work” that, if you didn’t know, you might not even think it was an idol track.
The music video was directed by Shunji Iwai, and you can catch glimpses of the youthful members walking through Akihabara as it was back then.
It has come to goodbye.Chevon
An original track that rhythmically captures the bittersweet feeling that seeps in with the arrival of spring.
Created by Chevon, this single was released in March 2025, carrying on the tradition of annual spring-themed songs.
Its emotional vocals and a sound that fuses rock and pop leave a strong impression, while the sentimental guitar tones beautifully paint the scenery of spring.
Immediately after release, comments like “resonates with the heart” and “beautiful” spread across social media, striking a chord with many listeners.
Highly recommended for moments when you want to dwell on memories with someone special.
I hope it’s sunny.DREAMS COME TRUE
It was in October 1992 that a heartwarming masterpiece was born—one that depicts childhood experiences in nature, filled with nostalgic memories and love for family.
Richly emotional lyrics trace memories of time spent with family in early childhood and the evolving parent-child relationship that comes with growing up.
Through this classic, DREAMS COME TRUE beautifully captures the scenery of a nature-rich hometown and the bonds between parents and children.
Selected as the theme song for the NHK morning drama Hirari and included on the album The Swinging Star, the work achieved phenomenal sales in Japan at the time.
The exquisite melody—where Miwa Yoshida’s vocals and Masato Nakamura’s arrangement blend perfectly—has continued to be cherished as a springtime anthem, a song that comforts those longing for the arrival of spring.

Listening during cherry blossom season will make the lyrical world resonate even more deeply.
It’s a song that offers comfort to those experiencing spring farewells or new encounters.
Doki itnaniwa danshi
This eighth release from Naniwa Danshi rides on a spring breeze—an upbeat, hopeful song finished as a refreshing rock tune.
It conveys the excitement of stepping into a new environment and the importance of living true to yourself with vibrant energy.
While we sometimes face adversity, the message resonates: accept it as part of life and move forward with joy.
