Come, spring.Yumi Matsutoya

When it comes to beautiful spring songs with a somewhat traditional Japanese sound and melody, Yumi Matsutoya’s “Haru yo, Koi” comes to mind.

You’ve probably heard its striking piano intro at least once.

The lyrics, which express the fragile yearning for spring in classical-style Japanese, are very memorable and were later included in music and language textbooks.
