the first strong spring windnishina
Nishina’s song portrays the emotions of people facing farewells and new departures with the arrival of spring.
Built on the warm tones of an acoustic guitar and a simple band sound, the track is marked by a gentle yet fleeting vocal performance.
Chosen as the theme song for radiko’s new commercial, it was released digitally in March 2023.
By depicting both sides of the spring season—“parting” and “beginning”—the piece is crafted so listeners can layer it onto their own experiences.
It’s a song that resonates with many, embracing memories with loved ones, the loneliness of growing distant, and the resolve to keep moving forward.

This is a song by Junko Sakurada, released in February 1974, that entrusts the tender feelings of first love to tricolor violets.
Singing of a fleeting romance, the track reached No.
10 on the Oricon chart and sold approximately 186,000 copies.
The fusion of Akuyu’s delicate lyrics and Taiji Nakamura’s evocative melody beautifully captures the aching innocence of a young girl’s love.
The work depicts the emotions of adolescence—where hope and anxiety intertwine—with elegance, while Sakurada’s clear, translucent voice adds depth to the story.
It is a gentle companion for anyone who holds close the longing of waiting and the poignancy of an unfulfilled love.
Snow in MarchMakihara Noriyuki
This is a coming-of-age ballad capturing a spring scene twenty days after graduation.
With a gentle melody and tender vocals, it expresses young people’s anxieties and hopes about change, as well as the fleeting time spent with dear friends.
Amid an unseasonal snowfall, the image of walking shoulder to shoulder with friends is portrayed in a way that resonates deeply.
Included on Noriyuki Makihara’s album “Kimi wa Dare to Shiawase na Akubi o Shimasu ka.” released in September 1991, this piece is captivating for its calm, warm poetic worldview.
It is a classic you’ll want to listen to with the arrival of spring, a song that offers solace to those facing life’s turning points and harboring feelings about the changing days.
Last SongOfisharu Higedan Dism
With the arrival of spring comes a season of farewells and new encounters.
Official HIGE DANDism’s song gently embraces those springtime feelings.
The melody, beginning with delicate piano tones, seeps into the listener’s heart.
Included on the album “Traveler,” released in October 2019, the track was also used as an insert song in a Kansai TV/Fuji TV drama.
The lyrics convey the importance of cherishing everyday moments and living earnestly within limited time, offering quiet support to those whose hearts are filled with both anxiety and anticipation for a new chapter in life.
HarukaYOASOBI
Records and cassette tapes quickly gave way to CDs and MiniDiscs, and even those are already relics of the past.
If we were to describe YOASOBI in terms of music media, they’d be the “streaming generation.” Their song Haruka, which turns literature into music, is based on Osamu Suzuki’s novel The Moon Prince.
The lyrics feel like a cheer for everyone starting a new chapter in spring—those graduating, starting jobs, moving—anyone beginning a new life.
Ikura’s vocals are incredibly gentle! It’s a highly recommended track for anyone feeling a bit anxious or low as spring begins.
When spring comesmiwa
March is also a season of farewells, like graduations.
Despite the warmth of spring, your heart can sometimes feel a little lonely, right? In times like that, I recommend “Haru ni Nattara” sung by miwa.
It was released in 2011 as her fifth single.
The pop melody played on acoustic guitar turns anxious, lonely feelings into excitement for spring.
The lyrics are perfect for those graduating, so it might be nice to listen to it with friends.
