Taking ChancesSharon Van Etten

This is a memorable song with a melody that pairs beautifully with the warmth of spring.

It’s included on Sharon Van Etten’s album Are We There, released in May 2014.

The lyrics delicately depict the courage to take risks and the feelings for a loved one, striking a deep chord.

Expanding her sound from guitar to synthesizer, this work is perfect for the start of a new season.

It’s recommended for walks in the spring breeze or when you want a fresh start.

It’s a captivating track that gently supports those struggling with complicated relationships.

April Come She Will topicSimon&Garfunkel

This is one song that somehow gives me a bittersweet feeling: Simon and Garfunkel’s “April Come She Will.” When April comes around, our dear friends and coworkers often move on, don’t they? It’s a little lonely, but maybe it’s nice to match your mood to this song and send them off gently.

The title is also well known in Japanese as “4月になれば彼女は.” Highly recommended for anyone who wants to see something off or express their gratitude.

April 29, 1992Sublime

This is a 1996 track by Sublime, a ska-punk band from California that was active in the ’90s.

The title, April 29, 1992, refers to the large-scale Los Angeles riots that broke out in the United States.

It’s not an event that’s often discussed in Japan, but it might be a song worth listening to during this period to reflect on American social issues.

Me & You Together SongThe 1975

When it comes to the latest band sound in Western music, I’m pretty sure The 1975 is the undisputed pick! EDM may be dominating the Western charts, but the power and drama of live instruments are still so satisfying.

That breezy, spring-wind feel in the beat and the sense of space—‘Me & You Together Song’—even the title is truly wonderful.

In Japan, you could say they have a vibe similar to Spitz!

Spring VacationThe Beach Boys

A track from The Beach Boys’ 2012 album “That’s Why God Made the Radio,” by the long-standing band that began as a surf rock group in the 1960s and has continued to thrive.

It drew attention as their first album in 20 years consisting solely of original songs.

This song features captivating choral work and, true to its title, is the kind of tune you’ll want to listen to when you’re in a laid-back, vacation mood!
