=LOVE (Equal Love) / 1st ALBUM track 'I Heard the Sound of Cherry Blossoms Blooming' MV [YouTube ver.]

This is a heartwarming =LOVE song that gently conveys the arrival of spring.

It portrays a faint, bittersweet first love by likening the flutter of a first crush to the invisible scene of “the sound of cherry blossoms blooming.” The reasons the protagonist prefers riding in the third car of the school commuter train, and the care she takes with her hairstyle, convey the feelings of a girl earnestly navigating her first love despite her confusion.

Included on the May 2021 album “Zenbu, Naisho.” (“Everything’s a Secret.”), the song also drew attention for its refreshingly springlike visual beauty in the music video.

It’s a perfect track for the spring season—one that makes your heart flutter when listened to at the start of a new school term.

It’s recommended not only for those in love, but also for anyone who wants to enjoy the spirit of spring.

Little Glee Monster’s “Seishun Photograph” turns a lonely, tearful graduation into one where you can say “See you again” with bright smiles and full of energy.

If you take lots of photos of your memories, then whenever uncertainty creeps in down the road, just looking at them will make you feel, “It’ll be okay”! Spring is also a season of farewells and can feel a bit bittersweet, but if you keep making memories with your friends right up to the end, just like in this song, it will never end with only sad tears.

If you’re feeling sentimental before graduation, listen to this song and enjoy every last moment with your friends!
