Mrs. GREEN APPLE – Spring Melancholy

A popular song that poignantly portrays graduation and new encounters has been delivered by Mrs.

GREEN APPLE.

Set at a medium tempo, it candidly sings about precious memories and farewells with friends.

The song carries the straightforward feelings of vocalist Motoki Omori, who wrote it the day after graduating high school, and it was also chosen as the theme for Suntory’s “Craft Boss” commercial.

While sensing how quickly student life passes, it depicts the realization that everyday repetition was actually a treasure, weaving in awkwardness when facing friends and the inner conflict of yearning and aspiration.

As spring arrives and the seasons change, the protagonist’s emotions—anxious about the future yet striving to look ahead—are carefully rendered alongside delicate melodies.

It’s a track we especially hope elementary school students working hard at their studies and club activities will listen to.
