Vocaloid songs to listen to in spring: masterpieces that color the season of encounters, farewells, and love.

The town closest to spring40mP

[GUMI (40mP)] The Town Closest to Spring [Original PV]

This is the first VOCALOID song to surpass one million views in the Reiwa era.

Even when we say “spring,” people carry many different feelings: those anxious about a new chapter in life, those troubled by love, and those who are simply having fun.

This is a song I’d like all of them to hear.

It wears a cheerful face yet somehow feels a little bittersweet—a complex expression—but there’s no doubt it’s a masterpiece.

Happy SynthesizerEasy Pop

[Megurine Luka, GUMI] Happy Synthesizer [Original Song]

It’s an irresistibly cute and pop-infused track packed with electronic sounds.

The playful lyrics, possible only because it’s by the artist VOCALOID, and the repeatedly appearing title phrase inevitably stick in your memory.

Brimming with brightness, fun, and excitement, it’s a perfect song for spring.

spring stormjohn

Spring Storm / Hatsune Miku

It pulls you in from the very intro.

This is a track by john, a Vocaloid producer known for a stylish, distinctive sound, released in 2019.

It’s irresistibly upbeat—the kind of breeziness that just feels right.

Perhaps precisely because of that light touch, the lyrics actually depict a parting from someone important, yet listening to it somehow makes you feel positive.

Still, thinking about the protagonist, it might be a song about trying to shake off their lingering feelings.

It’s a springtime Vocaloid song that works both as pure sonic enjoyment and as a piece whose lyrics invite deeper interpretation.

I'll go crazy.Kawasaki Nautilus

I'll go crazy. – Kanoe (KAF)

A bit provocative and almost as if it turns the melancholic spring air on its head, this song is a work by Kawasaki Nautilus, released in March 2023.

Its dynamic melody and Kafu’s energetic vocals stir the heart.

With the theme “a song about the strange people who appear in spring,” it vividly portrays the surge of sensitive feelings that wash over you in unguarded moments, offering an escape from the busyness of daily life.

Hear it once and you’ll find its rhythm irresistibly compelling—there’s a definite addictive quality hidden within.

The world is falling in loveHONEY WORKS

The World Is Falling in Love / CHiCO with HoneyWorks

One of HoneyWorks’ signature pieces, the spring-evoking classic “The World Is Falling in Love.” Since it’s used as the theme song for the hugely popular TV anime Blue Spring Ride (Ao Haru Ride), many of you may already know it.

Its pop style and catchy melody leave a strong impression.

Sentimental affectionChiaki Natsume

Sentimental Love Affection / Chiaki Natsume feat. GUMI (Sentimental love Heart / Chiaki Natsume feat. GUMI)

This is a song that portrays the feelings of a girl in love.

However, it isn’t a song overflowing with happiness from being in love; instead, it depicts the sorrow of parting.

Even as she thinks, “I loved this about you,” and remembers, “We had moments like this,” she still has to say goodbye.

It’s a piece that beautifully captures the aching, painful emotions of a farewell.

Sakura-Colored Time CapsuleSuzumu

[Eng Sub] Sakura-Colored Time Capsule [GUMI]

I think many people have experienced graduating from school without being able to confess to someone they liked.

That regret—but also the feeling that someday, surely…

Those emotions are packed tightly into the spring Vocaloid song “Momoiro Time Capsule.” It was released in 2014 by Vocaloid producer Suzumu.

It’s a fast-paced, rock-style track.
