Spring Songikimonogakari

Ikimono-gakari “Haru Uta” Music Video

Spring Songikimonogakari

It’s a refreshing song that evokes the arrival of spring.

Ikimono-gakari released it as the theme song for the anime film Detective Conan: The Eleventh Striker.

Released in April 2012, the track is notable for Kiyoe Yoshioka’s clear, transparent vocals.

Its gentle melody, perfect for the start of a new season, and lyrics that sing of hope for the future resonate deeply.

It’s ideal for the graduation and school entrance season, so we recommend it to elementary school students who may feel anxious about a new environment.

If you sing it with friends at karaoke, it’s sure to lift your spirits like the cheerful warmth of spring.
