Upbeat songs to listen to in spring: Classic warm spring tunes (41–50)
Blue SpringSUPER BEAVER
SUPER BEAVER, the rock band that rose to fame when their debut single “Deep Breath” was selected as an ending theme for the anime NARUTO: Shippuden, is best known for their energizing song “Aoi Haru” (Blue Spring).
Released in 2016 as their ninth single, it was featured in Taisho Pharmaceutical’s Lipovitan D web commercial.
Centered on guitar-driven rock, the lyrics resonate with a nostalgia for youthful days.
The drama-style music video also brilliantly captures the world of the song.
Spring Songikimonogakari
Since Hotaka Yamashita announced his departure in 2021, the two-member band Ikimono-gakari has been energetically active under their new lineup.
Their 23rd single “Haru Uta,” used as the theme song for the animated film Detective Conan: The Eleventh Striker, is notable for its song structure that transitions from a piano-and-acoustic-guitar opening into a driving arrangement.
The lyrics, which evoke spring—the season of meetings and partings—are likely to leave listeners feeling both wistful and positive.
With its exhilarating melody and bright strings that convey the spirit of spring, it’s a catchy pop tune.
HarukaYOASOBI
As spring arrives and our hearts begin to flutter, this is the perfect season.
YOASOBI’s “Haruka” is a song that suits spring beautifully.
Since its release on December 18, 2020, it has continued to captivate listeners.
Inspired by the novel “Tsuki Ōji” written by broadcast writer Osamu Suzuki, the track’s up-tempo, bright melody fits the cheerful mood of spring perfectly.
The warmth and gratitude expressed by YOASOBI resonate deeply, touching the heart through the senses.
It’s a song that gives courage and hope to everyone embarking on a new beginning—that’s “Haruka.”
Hey,SHISHAMO
SHISHAMO is a three-piece band leading the girls’ rock scene with a solid, hard-hitting sound layered with relatable, true-to-life lyrics.
“Nee,” the opening track of their fifth album, SHISHAMO 5, was featured in a commercial for Calpis “Calpis Water,” and later served as the theme song for ABEMA’s “Kyo, Suki ni Narimashita” in 2021.
The lyrics tell a story of bittersweet love and the resolve to take a step forward—perfect for spring, the season of new beginnings.
With a tight, guitar-driven pop ensemble that lingers in your ears, it’s a refreshing pop tune.
The Signal of the BeginningKetsumeishi
Released in 2003 as Ketsumeishi’s sixth single, this song perfectly matches its title, building excitement with the feeling that “something fun is about to begin!” It’s a poppy, happy track that’s so quintessentially them it’s often chosen as the first song in their live shows.
SOUL LOVEGLAY
GLAY is a rock band that churned out hit songs emblematic of the 1990s and remains a beloved, nationally popular act in the 2020s.
They’ve produced many classic tracks that evoke the different seasons, and today I’d like to introduce their masterpiece “SOUL LOVE,” released in April 1998—right in the heart of spring.
Back then, it was released simultaneously with “Yuwaku,” and the two took the No.
1 and No.
2 spots, not only proving GLAY’s overwhelming popularity but also sparking a mini-boom of simultaneous multi-single releases—something that feels nostalgically of its time.
From TAKURO’s guitar arpeggios intertwining with JIRO’s melodious bass, to HISASHI’s striking guitar phrases, the opening alone is enough to get your heart racing.
The lyrics—about springtime encounters and the anticipation of the summer to come—showcase TAKURO’s excellent choice of words, and TERU’s refreshing vocals bring energy to everyone who listens.
Tattayuzu
Yuzu’s two-part harmony is so beautiful that you can’t help but be captivated! Their signature catchy melody line shines over a simple accompaniment of just acoustic guitar and tambourine.
With its pleasant tone and positive lyrics, this is a highly recommended song that will lift your spirits.
