Arashi, the national idol group that went on hiatus at the end of 2020.

While many of Arashi’s songs are loved by a wide range of generations, there are “hidden gems” among their B-sides and album tracks.

The song “Blue,” included on their third album How’s it going? released in 2003, is one such track—so popular among fans that it was also included on their best-of album.

It’s a bittersweet love song that feels like softly murmuring the feelings kept deep in one’s heart while thinking of a former girlfriend after a breakup.

This is the perfect song to give to someone who’s moving on after a farewell and striving in a new place—the signature track by Arashi! “Sakura blooms” doesn’t just literally mean cherry blossoms opening; like saying exam success, it signifies that something you’ve challenged yourself with has gone well.

That forward-looking spirit is woven throughout the lyrics.

And before you set off running in a new place, there’s almost always a parting from your current environment and friends.

This song carries a powerful message: “Even after we part, the bonds we’ve built won’t disappear—so keep your head up and keep running forward!”

When it comes to spring staples that instantly boost your mood with an energetic intro, this is the song! It’s Arashi’s single “Sakura Sake,” released in March 2005.

It was also used in a Jounan Prep School TV commercial featuring Sho Sakurai, and became widely known as an anthem for exam season.

The lyrics, filled with positive messages, and the driving band sound perfectly match graduation scenes where you take a bold first step forward.

Just listening to it brings back vivid memories of your earnest younger self and the days spent with friends, and you might find your eyes welling up before you know it.

It blows away anxiety and gives you a powerful push toward the future.

It’s the ultimate cheer song that stays by your side in those precious moments when you want to wipe away your tears and say goodbye with a smile.
