I want to become a cherry blossom tree.AKB48
AKB48’s “sakura songs” are so good, aren’t they? Here’s one track I really want even kids who don’t usually listen to idol music to hear! The center for this song, “Sakura no Ki ni Narō” (“Let’s Become a Cherry Tree”), was Atsuko Maeda.
With gentle words, it expresses the feelings of spring, when we tend to feel uneasy: “Even if we grow up and everyone goes their separate ways, the cherry tree will always be standing here.” It’s a perfect song for class farewell parties and similar occasions.
Another masterpiece is “Sakura no Hanabiratachi” (“Cherry Blossom Petals”)—be sure to check it out!
spring melancholyMrs. GREEN APPLE
This song delicately portrays the transience of youth and the emotions of adolescence.
It’s said that Motoki Omori, the vocalist of Mrs.
GREEN APPLE, wrote it the day after his high school graduation ceremony.
It’s a perfect track to listen to during graduation season.
The song was tied in as the theme for Suntory’s “Craft Boss” commercial and became widely loved.
In March 2024, it surpassed 100 million cumulative streams on the Billboard JAPAN charts.
Why not give it a listen this spring, a season that evokes farewells and growth? Its heartfelt lyrics and beautiful melody are sure to color your memories.
Cherry Blossom Timeaiko
If you’re into more mature romance, this might hit home.
It’s a track by Aiko, a singer-songwriter from Osaka Prefecture, released in 2000 as her fifth single.
The arrangement—rooted in a band sound—leaves an impression with its blend of freshness and wistfulness.
Aiko’s straightforward vocals match the tone perfectly.
And the direct message of “Please love me” really strikes a chord.
Give it a listen while basking in the dappled spring sunlight.
cherry blossomFUNKY MONKEY BABYS
Elementary school students might not know this, but FUNKY MONKEY BABYS actually used to be a three-member group.
They once disbanded when DJ Chemical, the DJ of the group, left to become a Buddhist temple priest.
Then in 2021, they made a sensational comeback as a duo.
Sakura is a classic from their three-member era, and its quiet piano intro is truly memorable.
The lyrics can be taken as either romantic feelings or the bond between men—what do you think? It also made headlines because comedian Tokui from the duo Tutorial was featured on the cover.
It’s a truly great cherry blossom song that I want every elementary school student to hear now!
