Song of Springsupittsu
Spitz isn’t just a band that churned out a string of massive hits in the 1990s—they continue to shine in the 2020s as a top band with a truly one-of-a-kind presence.
Their songs, woven from a simple yet meticulously crafted, rock-solid ensemble, never rely on gimmicks, and yet no matter where you cut into them, they sound unmistakably like Spitz—that’s pretty amazing.
The song featured here, “Haru no Uta” (“Spring Song”), released in 2005, is a quintessential Spitz track, showcasing their strongest and most beautiful melody.
Masamune Kusano’s evergreen voice—he writes both the lyrics and the music—gently touches the softest parts of the listener’s heart, carried by the brisk shimmer of acoustic guitar.
That, too, is a uniquely Spitz kind of musical experience.
The lyrics drift with a springlike, nostalgic poignancy and carry a fable-like atmosphere; also note how the first-person pronoun is omitted.
Whether intentional or not, it seems to open up an even richer field for the imagination.

It’s a song that makes you think back to those days and reminisce about your own youth.
