cherry blossom rainJUJU
A poignant medium-tempo ballad by JUJU, layered with reflections on a beautiful cherry blossom rain.
Visiting a riverside path of memories alone, the protagonist wistfully recalls a past love—tenderly portraying the bittersweetness of spring in a gem of a song.
Released in February 2010, it was featured as the March opening theme for TBS’s CDTV and in a RecoChoku commercial, and is also included on the album “JUJU.” It’s a song to listen to on nights when the coming of spring makes you look back, or when you’ve said goodbye to someone dear.
cherry blossom night breezeSukima Suichi
A Skima Switch song filled with a tender yet bittersweet love, wrapped in the spring night breeze.
As cherry blossoms dance on a spring evening, the protagonist stands alone, their heart stirred by memories of days gone by and the anticipation of a new departure.
Along with the gently flowing melody, the quiet of the night softly portrays the subtle trembling of the heart.
With Masayoshi Yamazaki’s acoustic guitar and backing vocals, the piece gains even greater depth and richness.
Included on the September 2006 album “Fukumimi THE BEST WORKS,” this track is recommended for anyone who wants to connect with the feeling of quietly awaiting spring’s arrival while walking alone beneath rows of cherry trees.
Oh, sake!Fukuda Kouhei
Ikuzo Yoshi’s masterpiece “Sake yo.” It’s a celebrated classic in the enka world that became a nationwide hit, so I think everyone knows it.
In Kohei Fukuda’s cover, the song reveals a new side, characterized by clearer enunciation compared to the original.
For those who find Yoshi’s Tohoku-accented singing style challenging, this version might actually be easier to sing.
As for the kobushi (ornamental bends), the pitch changes are more distinct than in the original, so if that part feels difficult, it’s perfectly fine to model just the kobushi after the original.
