When cherry blossoms start blooming, it’s likely to be the end of school year and fiscal year in Japan. That means, it’s the time to say good-bye to the classmates or coworkers who may join different school/class/working place from April. In Japan Feb-March to April is the season of sorrowing farewell in exchange for new encounters. (That’s why Sakura songs released during this period are likely hit!) Cherry blossoms are exactly the flowers in this period. They are not just beautiful to us. I think we definitely overlay our sensitive feelings or memories or expectations ( to see new people by the time the blossoms fall) on cherry blossoms. They are that special, and you’ll see there’s no wonder we LOVE Sakura songs! They are very much suitable as love songs!!
