Popular Spring Song Rankings [2026] (71–80)
March of the PetalsAimer78rank/position
A heartwarming song that portrays springtime farewells and new beginnings.
Parting from close friends is lonely, but the gentle melody resonates in your heart, giving you the courage to move forward on your own path.
It was included on the single “I beg you/Hanabiratachi no March/Sailing,” released in January 2019, and later featured on the album “Sun Dance.” The music video stars Mirei Sasaki from Hinatazaka46, and its depiction of youthful scenes is especially memorable.
It’s perfect for listening to on your commute as you head to a new class or school, basking in the spring air.
Even those little anxieties can turn into excitement when accompanied by Aimer’s voice.
Spring ~spring~Hysteric Blue79rank/position
One of the quintessential spring songs of the 1990s is Hysteric Blue’s “Haru ~spring~.” Released in 1999 as the band’s second single, it reached No.
5 on the Oricon Singles Chart.
Its fresh band sound and clear, airy vocals made a strong impression and turned it into a big hit.
In 2016, Eir Aoi covered the song, drawing renewed attention.
After Hysteric Blue disbanded, vocalist Tama and drummer Takuya formed the group Sabão and released a self-cover of “Haru ~spring~.”
seasonikimonogakari80rank/position
In spring, where meetings and farewells intersect, we sometimes feel a vague anxiety that casts a shadow over the heart and a melancholy for which we can’t find a reason.
Gently accompanying that indistinct sense of unease and loneliness is Ikimonogakari’s “Kisetsu” (“Season”).
Included on the album “WE DO,” this song is a tender ballad spun with the warm melodies so characteristic of Ikimonogakari.
Having created many spring-themed songs, Ikimonogakari uses this track to portray the anxieties and loneliness that everyone feels in spring, as well as a bright sense of hope—embracing the full range of emotions that arise in the heart.
It’s a song that delivers a gentle warmth to your heart, no matter what you’re feeling.

Early summer rainOhtaki Eiichi81rank/position
This is the B-side track to Eiichi Ohtaki’s single “Soratobu Kujira,” released in June 1972 after his work with Happy End.
Its lyrics, said to gather words from Basho’s haiku and Nagai Kafu’s essays, pursue the appeal of sound and euphony over literal meaning, brimming with Ohtaki’s signature experimental spirit.
The track was produced by recording the rhythm first and then overdubbing, and when it was later included on the classic album “Eiichi Ohtaki,” the arrangement was changed.
Even under gloomy skies, Ohtaki’s characteristically light vocals and unique sound design are sure to put you at ease.
It’s a richly flavored number that makes you want to relax indoors, listen to the rain, and sip a coffee.

A heartwarming scene depicted from the perspective of a mug strikes a chord—this is a ballad by YOASOBI.
The song portrays moments overflowing with the feeling of watching over its owner’s growth and everyday life, making the emotions of gratitude and farewell truly moving.
It’s a single released in December 2020 in collaboration with broadcast writer Osamu Suzuki, and it’s also included on the album THE BOOK.
Perfect for those approaching milestones like graduation ceremonies.
Why not pair it with an Instagram Reel, imagining someone dear to you, along with the song’s gentle vocals that resonate with the spring atmosphere?
CHERRY BLOSSOM10-FEET83rank/position

If you’re feeling anxious about a new chapter in life, listening to this might blow all that gloom away.
