Cherry blossom seasonFujifaburikku
A wistful yet warm number that conjures up scenes of spring.
It’s a work released by the lyrically acclaimed band Fujifabric in April 2004 as their major-label debut single.
It weaves feelings of helplessness at farewells when the cherry blossoms fall and at setting off for a distant town.
The clear, translucent piano tone is striking, giving the sense of gently filling in the blanks in the listener’s memories.
As the beginning of a four-season series, this piece was also included on the album “Fujifabric.” It has been listened to for many years, even appearing in high school music textbooks in the 2022 school year.

The last spring breakItō Maiko
It’s a ballad that conjures the scene of stepping into a school building during spring break after graduation, when everyone’s gone, and being suddenly overcome with loneliness.
Written and composed by Yumi Matsutoya, this classic—performed by both Hi-Fi Set and Yuming herself—was covered by Maiko Ito.
It’s included on her album “Yume no Iriguchi,” released in June 1983, and her clear, translucent vocals from her idol days—she now works widely as an actor and researcher—really touch the heart.
In 1991, a story inspired by this song aired on the TBS drama “Rouge no Dengon,” testifying to its lasting popularity.
The slightly youthful vocals make the lyrics’ poignancy feel even more immediate, and it’s a track you’ll want to listen to alone, slowly, in the season of farewells.

It’s included on their album “Tokyo Shoki Shodo,” released in September 2025, and it’s a number that seems to embody the momentum they gained with their major-label debut.
The catchy melody composed by Yuho Kitazawa and the lyrics by vocalist Shiina, which capture the pain of parting, really hit home.
It was also selected as the theme song for the film “Flame Union: The Legendary Strongest Hitman Kunioka [Private Battle Edition],” and its driving punk sound is perfect for shaking off drowsiness.
While depicting the end of a complicated relationship, the song brims with forward-charging energy—so if you need a boost at a crucial moment, give it a listen.

Ryomei Shirai’s arrangement sparkles, and the horn tones evoke the light of morning.
While carrying the loneliness of night, the lyrics step forward into a new dawn—a worldview that hits even harder now that we’re adults.

It’s a classic that won the Wired Music Award at the 36th Japan Cable Awards in 2003 and the Gold Prize at the Japan Record Awards the following year.
As one of Kyogo Kawaguchi’s signature works, it’s cherished as a springtime standard.
At first listen, the lyrics seem to depict a breakup between a man and a woman, but it was actually created with the relationship between Doraemon and Nobita in mind.
Its warm message, imbued with the deep bond and mutual care between them, gently resonates with those facing graduation or a new departure.
Goodbye ElegyIshizaki Hyuui
Singer-songwriter Huwie Ishizaki.
He’s well known for writing songs for Masaki Suda.
He’s not the type who relies on explosive vocal power, yet he captivates with vocal nuance, breath control, and the way he places words.
That’s why he has an unusually strong persuasiveness in ballads and mid-tempo numbers.
Have you watched Huwie Ishizaki on THE FIRST TAKE? I got goosebumps.
What amazed me was the trembling delicacy, the rasp that borders on a shout—it felt so soulful and hit me right in the heart.
He sings while playing guitar, yet neither his voice nor his guitar wavers at all.
I think he’s the kind of artist who changes the air the moment he steps on stage!
