A bittersweet number that captures the feelings of a man with an unrequited crush.

The moment you fall in love is blissful, but when things don’t go well, the painful moments start to pile up.

In this song, the protagonist is a shy man who lacks confidence and can’t bring himself to confess his feelings to the girl he likes.

The music video shows the two on a date, but she fiddles with her phone and the conversation doesn’t take off; the man, who started with a smile, gradually looks more and more downcast…

It’s a ballad filled with the bittersweet emotions anyone in love has felt at least once.

Many listeners will probably relate.

It’s a song that offers comfort to those facing a turning point in life or thinking of someone dear who lives far away.

It’s a ballad I’d love to hear in winter.

If someone sang a song like this with a sweet voice in a closed room, I’d fall for them.

I really like the background music too.

Whether it’s that person you’re interested in or a couple whose relationship is getting a bit stale, I’d love for the boyfriend to sing it to her in a manly way.

This song makes me feel like that person I sometimes drift into thinking about is about to come to mind.

Even if we can’t meet or talk, it’s a bittersweet song where, like the moment puzzle pieces click into place, the sudden image of someone you love flashes before you and unsettles your heart.

Sakura Melody is a collaborative track by Miliyah Kato and Shota Shimizu, who also drew attention with their collaborations on Love Forever and FOREVER LOVE.

Included on the compilation album THE BEST, created as part of their joint project, the song was written by Noriyuki Makihara.

Set to a poignant melody that evokes the fleeting impression of cherry blossoms, it sings of a springtime parting—a separation chosen for each other’s future.

The melody, likening those bittersweet feelings to cherry blossoms, perfectly suits a woman’s delicate sensibilities.
