Tears of MagnoliaSutādasuto☆Rebyū

“Tears of Magnolia ~acoustic~” Stardust☆Review [LIVE]

A classic song about someone precious whom we can no longer meet is Stardust Revue’s “Magnolia Tears.” Released in 1993 as their 25th single, it was re-recorded in an acoustic version in 2005.

The acoustic version, sung with only piano accompaniment, is especially moving thanks to vocalist Kaname Nemoto’s voice and the band members’ rich harmonies.

For those who said goodbye to someone important in the spring, it’s a masterpiece that can’t be heard without tears.

Sakura No Uta

The future I envisioned in my youth.

This song powerfully and beautifully portrays the preciousness of past memories and how, even if the real future turned out a little different, we’re still doing our best to live.

Perhaps everyone feels, at least once, that they’d like to return to the time when they had high hopes for themselves.

Spring is the season when new chapters begin.

Let’s live positively in the present, so we won’t be outdone by the feelings we had back then.

March of the PetalsAimer

Aimer “March of the Petals” Starring: Mirei Sasaki (Hinatazaka46) (5th albums “Sun Dance” and “Penny Rain” released on 2019/04/10)

Aimer’s “March of the Petals” is a very beautiful song that depicts springtime farewells.

Being with the one you love used to be a given, but with graduation, that normalcy is lost.

It’s filled to the brim with those precious moments and feelings, and I can’t listen without tears.
