MISIA’s 31st single, “Sakura Hitohira,” also drew attention for featuring SHIROSE from WHITE JAM.

It’s a gently emotive cherry blossom song that pairs beautifully with MISIA’s resonant, full-bodied vocals.

It stands as a quintessential sakura song that we hope will touch the hearts of elementary school children as well.

CHE.R.RYYUI

CHE.R.RY – YUI (Full)

A smash hit by the eternal guitar girl, YUI.

If you’re a woman who sings while playing guitar, you’ve almost certainly gone through this song, CHE.R.RY.

Just like its tagline—a sweet-and-sour spring song like fruit—it’s a truly splendid anthem of youth and love.

When this song came out, smartphones didn’t exist yet; everyone was tapping out emails on flip phones.

The nostalgia of pressing the same key multiple times instead of flick input! Even if today’s elementary school kids don’t know flip phones, any girl wishing for someone to notice her budding feelings is sure to get butterflies from this springtime song!

Cherry Blossom Societyyuzu

Yuzu “Sakura-kai” Music Video

It’s a euphoric love song that incorporates the timbre of traditional instruments.

The track is by Yuzu, a musical duo that has long been at the forefront of the Japanese music scene, and it was released as a single in 2010.

The lyrics express a very pure feeling—“I will protect you forever”—and as you listen, your heart warms.

Another charm is the beautiful choral work of the two members of Yuzu.

You can’t help but hope to someday meet someone who feels like they belong in the world of this song… or maybe you’ve already met them?
