When I was in elementary school, every year in music class we would have a program where we sang songs from different places in the world. This was one of them that we sang in the program one year. It still sticks with me to this day. :)
Thank you for sharing your wonderful memories with us! The number of likes on your comment shows that there are many others who have had the same experience as you. It is really wonderful to sing foreign songs together as children… May peace come to the world.☺️🌸✨✨
@@sakurassongsThank you for sharing this beautiful song! I learned about it from Rich Eberlen in the US, who has this channel: ua-cam.com/video/hAmEKF-ZmJE/v-deo.html …He makes guitar extensions, and I just got one :-) it’s a bit like a small Koto, and I love it! Sending love from Greece 🇬🇷 have a lovely day 😊🙏
@@ChristosNikolis Thanks for sharing wonderful website with us! I've never seen a guitar extension before and I'm very interested to see it. You are right, it does resemble a koto. And his playing is really great! Actually, my favourite sound is acoustic guitar🎸😊. Have a great day to you in Greece!🌸
This song makes me nostalgic for the first time I went to the Japanese fall festival in Springfield Missouri. It was a beautiful warm September day in 2017. I met many people, I tried on yukata for the first time (which made me feel beautiful), I watched shows, drank matcha and got a sunburn. It was a wonderful day and is a fond memory.
@@sakurassongs Exactly what I have thought. It inspired me to imagine this in a story in which... a character which I consider a father figure soothes me to sleep with this soothingly haunting berceuse.
I'm from Philippines... This song was so calming and beautiful, we're studying Japanese folk songs and me and my groupmates have to sing this infront of the class
I am Javanese. I found some similarity between Javanese and Japanese old/traditional song. They sounds heavenly, soft like a feather but also gloomy at the same time. It always uses gloomy melody even if the lyrics ain't showing anything gloomy at all and at the very ends of the song it always uses the low tone. It give the gloomy vibes even more. So, javanese and japanese traditional song for me, so beautiful yet creepy to hear. Imagine if you hear somebody sing this song in the middle of the night
Well, Nusantara was once a part of Japanese back then, so well, no wonder there's similarities in culture, imagine if this song is played with Gamelan instrument. Would be really great ig
I had a great Japanese friend, and she sang this song to me with heart and soul! When she came to visit me without fail she made me sit down to sing SAKURA to me...!!!
@@sakurassongs thanks to you, for the beautiful music, it was always a nice gift with her harmonious voice! she, unfortunately, passed away, a short time ago!!!..thanks
@@sakurassongs You're right... it's very, very painful!! I almost can't finish listening to this beautiful music completely. Well, she sang with a lot of feeling! Thank you a thousand...(rip)

It's also extremely common in Japanese Music to make an homage to it... It's fun to listen to random Japanese Music and suddenly you hear the melody...
About 25 years ago, I got a Casio Keyboard for Christmas as a kid. This song was one of the many demo songs it could play. I remember being obsessed with it. It sounded so cold and far away yet kind of nostalgic. Now of all days, I remembered the song and looked it up for the first time. Still beautiful.

Relaxing and ever wonderful, mysterious and gentle. It’s so beautifully mysterious that even rain drops dance 😉 Thanks for sharing your tradition with the world

this song is sooooo good brings back old memories when in choir we would sing songs from around the world and this is one of them and right when i got home i learned the whole thing that night.
We are using this song for our school concert, and we made Sakura tree’s for this song. We are using the karaoke version and you have inspired my class. Thank you so much for this❤❤
Yayyyyy I had found this song from you guys on Apple Music and I had been trying to find the lyrics forever because online only gave me the first part so I’m glad you guys have a UA-cam video that’s shows the romanized lyrics as well thank you!!! The melody is so nice and the singing was lovely! The music is so fascinating and memorizing! Honestly it reminds me of a siren haha loved it!
absolutely beautiful arrangement and performance. I have known this song for years and heard it many ways, but I really appreciated this, with the different verses and your beautiful simplicity. I would love to buy a copy of this for download! :)
I am learning this piano piece for a friend visiting from Japan… her name is Juri, and I wanted to learn the words as well… thank you 🙏🏼 it’s very beautiful!
I'm French, living on my native Reunion Island (an island with a lot of cultural diversity). And I remember that in secondary school, when I was in 5th grade, our music teacher arrived and told us that we were going to learn a song called Sakura Sakura, which we had to learn every day in order to evaluate ourselves afterwards. But what I remember is that from the first words of the song I felt transported, so when I got home I showed my mother the lyrics and told her I'd look them up on the internet. Unfortunately I'd never found a similar song, or even the same one. And this evening I finally found it, after 5 years since college, and I was finally able to appreciate again this magical song that had made me dream. Ps: Me and my friend got good marks in our singing exams. 😸 💜Thank you for sharing this wonderful song, I hope that one day I'll be able to travel to Japan and visit this country that fascinates me so much. 💙
That was beautiful. It's music like this that gets me to imagine such wonderful places. Like flying above a forest, or standing in the grass with the winds blowing
I only recently learned where this melody came from. I had a music box as a baby that my grandma would play for me and today my friend told me she remembered the melody as well.
@@Rosangela161 Thanks again for your kind message! I am now looking at Rapid City on google maps. I love old movies and of course Hitchcock, so I am thrilled to see your message from near Mt. Rushmore😱 By the way, this is from Tokyo. Thank you☺️
I woke up on the first day of Spring in Narita. The day before the trees had been bare. In the morning as I walked I saw the first of the Sakura blossoms and when I came to the park, all of the Sakura trees where in bloom. This song was playing in my head. I caught a flight that afternoon and crossed the International Date Line before the day had ended and flew into the beginning of Spring in the Western Hemisphere. By the time midnight came in Los Angeles, it had been 40 hours for me since the Dawn of Spring, at the beginning of which I saw the first bloom of the Sakura.

And I feel like giving you more than a billion “likes” 💕💕 I’m now preparing to release a sound-adjusted version of this song on distribution services around the world. I hope it reaches you somewhere in the world !!👍🌸
I learned this song as a kid in Okinawa in 1995. My teacher was Mr. Matsuda and he taught us Japanese culture along with Hiragana and Katakana. I miss those days 😢. Always will love Japan 🇯🇵.
i thought this song was very eerie as i only knew the melody. the second i learned the lyrics i realized its meant to feel fleeting, just like the blossoms.
What a lovely song and play! I know this melody from my time as a kindergarden teacher in Europe. With a japanese colleague called Yoshika from Tokio I was singing this song with the children many years ago. What a wonderful culture and awareness of music.
I am from Viet Nam , tôi rất thích bài hát này vì nó làm tôi nhớ đến những ngày kỷ niệm êm đềm bên cha mẹ lúc ở vùng quê , nhưng nhiêu đó vẫn không thể tả hết sự quyến rũ ma mị đầy yên bình của bài hát này ❤🌻
Cherry blossoms in bloom truly are beautiful….Wish I could see and attend a real cherry blossom festival. Been a dream of mine for years. Only one in my family who ended up part japanese because me and my older sister have different dads. Ever since I was a baby I’ve just seemed extremely interested in the culture. Even did the special japanese birthday celebration when I was little…..Still have photos of it somewhere. Plus recently did a Japanese combination with my Quinceanera when I turned 15. To do something special and unique like me. Wanting to combine 2 parts of me in one on the special day. 😊
May you one day see a real cherry blossom festival in Japan. Just as the life of the cherry blossom is connected from ancient times to today, so is yours. Having two cultures in you is a wonderful thing. You let the flower that is you blossom into full bloom in your family.🌸✨🌸✨🥰
9/5/2024 it does wtf 😬 while I was little I didn’t realised cus we sang this in Chinese school a bloody song in Japanese. Now I am listening early 8 am in UK it does sound creepy 😅
I learned this song in elementary school back in China, and I've been searching for it ever since. Recently, I watched the 1957 movie Sayonara, and there was a background song that sounded so familiar. I realized I had heard it over 30 years ago when I was just a kid.
Beautiful! I have taught this song before to my students with 4-Hole Ocarina which you may know is ancient Woodwind instrument that dates back to the Stone Age in history. Japanese Composer Koji Kondo used this instrument in Zelda: Ocarina of Time (1998). Saw concert years ago in Stillwater, Oklahoma where Koto was played with large ensemble of Ocarinas. Was given hand-made Ocarina from Japan. Was years later I began teaching 12-Hole Ocarina. Thank you for sharing!🎼
Sukura's old Japanese songs i loved it! Can you a dance with this song? It is amazing cooler than ever the relaxing music is soo sweet and the pics are a hit! My father this soo much! 👍👌😍😘💕
I'm so glad you and your father liked it! 🥰 I love dancing, but Japanese dance is difficult for me. Do you dance? I also made a karaoke so please enjoy it.🌸✨✨
It is truly amazing that this song is sung all over the world (in schools!). It's lovely to be able to listen to a song and go back to your school days!😊🌸
A very lovely rendition of this beautiful song. To my western ear, this pentatonic scale creates a feeling of melancholy. I wonder whether, as a Japanese, you would agree. I presume the cherry blossom is not only a sign of spring but also a symbol of the transitoriness of life. Am I correct?
Sorry for the late reply☺️ My modern ears, which know western scales, can feel the same melancholy in this song as you do. My impression is that the melody of this song is not about human sentimentality, but about the old Japanese landscape itself🌸🌸🌸 You are right, sakura is not only a symbol of spring, but also of fleeting life. It is said that their gracefulness and their ability to fall away is the reason why the Japanese love them so much🌸✨✨✨
I corrected the timing of English subtitles. Thank you for watching !
Thanks to the Japanese who made a video clip for me to sing so beautifully I want to listen to it forever in the Land of the Sun.

Thank you for the message!🥰🌸 I am very curious why this song is so loved all over the world…
I really hoped u will answer im now so happy
What a lovely song and play! I know this melody from my time as a kindergarden teacher in Europe. With a japanese colleague called Yoshika from Tokio I was singing this song with the children many years ago. What a wonderful culture and awareness of music.
I am from Viet Nam , tôi rất thích bài hát này vì nó làm tôi nhớ đến những ngày kỷ niệm êm đềm bên cha mẹ lúc ở vùng quê , nhưng nhiêu đó vẫn không thể tả hết sự quyến rũ ma mị đầy yên bình của bài hát này ❤🌻
When I read your message, I imagine your parents in the countryside and in Vietnam. Thank you for your peaceful message🥰🌸
Me too
I really love this song from first time listening to it
Luffy sang this I think
i remember learning this in 2nd grade with my music teacher , love this song it brings back awesome memories
Hello Stephanie!
Thank you for sharing your beautiful memory with us🌸☺️
Cherry blossoms in bloom truly are beautiful….Wish I could see and attend a real cherry blossom festival. Been a dream of mine for years. Only one in my family who ended up part japanese because me and my older sister have different dads. Ever since I was a baby I’ve just seemed extremely interested in the culture. Even did the special japanese birthday celebration when I was little…..Still have photos of it somewhere. Plus recently did a Japanese combination with my Quinceanera when I turned 15. To do something special and unique like me. Wanting to combine 2 parts of me in one on the special day. 😊
May you one day see a real cherry blossom festival in Japan. Just as the life of the cherry blossom is connected from ancient times to today, so is yours.
Having two cultures in you is a wonderful thing. You let the flower that is you blossom into full bloom in your family.🌸✨🌸✨🥰
とても美しい曲です。 BABYMETALの「メギツネ」という曲を聴いて、この曲に似ていることに気づきました。歌詞もとても素敵です🌸
Why does it sounds scary😭
Why?
9/5/2024 it does wtf 😬 while I was little I didn’t realised cus we sang this in Chinese school a bloody song in Japanese. Now I am listening early 8 am in UK it does sound creepy 😅
It’s in a minor key
Then try to search "Krao Dark sakura"
@@codywiench4214thats not why
Heavenly voice! I would love to visit Japan!
Got to be one of my favorite versions.
I've also made a karaoke song, so please try singing it!🌸
This is very serenading and sweetly enchanting like a blossoming flower
Honestly I love Luffy's version most but this is so beautiful
It is a lullaby women sing to their babies. It's supposed to be funny because Luffy sings it to a old woman like a baby.
I learned this song in elementary school back in China, and I've been searching for it ever since. Recently, I watched the 1957 movie Sayonara, and there was a background song that sounded so familiar. I realized I had heard it over 30 years ago when I was just a kid.
This just makes me wanna cry my eyes out. Lyrics are joyful, intruments are beautiful yet here i am with teary eyes.
MEGITSUNE !
Thanks, teaching myself to play it on piano.

Beautiful! I have taught this song before to my students with 4-Hole Ocarina which you may know is ancient Woodwind instrument that dates back to the Stone Age in history. Japanese Composer Koji Kondo used this instrument in Zelda: Ocarina of Time (1998). Saw concert years ago in Stillwater, Oklahoma where Koto was played with large ensemble of Ocarinas. Was given hand-made Ocarina from Japan. Was years later I began teaching 12-Hole Ocarina. Thank you for sharing!🎼
Sukura's old Japanese songs i loved it! Can you a dance with this song? It is amazing cooler than ever the relaxing music is soo sweet and the pics are a hit! My father this soo much! 👍👌😍😘💕
I'm so glad you and your father liked it! 🥰 I love dancing, but Japanese dance is difficult for me. Do you dance? I also made a karaoke so please enjoy it.🌸✨✨
Whoaaaa! I just got blown back to 6th grade when we sang this. Thank you so much for that nostalgia! That was over six years ago 😄.
It is truly amazing that this song is sung all over the world (in schools!). It's lovely to be able to listen to a song and go back to your school days!😊🌸
me and gang are getting ready to memorize this so we can perform this on mapeh
realll
I search this bc we're learning about the songs in east asia🇯🇵🇰🇷🇰🇵🇨🇳 from Philippines btw🇵🇭🇵🇭
A very lovely rendition of this beautiful song. To my western ear, this pentatonic scale creates a feeling of melancholy. I wonder whether, as a Japanese, you would agree. I presume the cherry blossom is not only a sign of spring but also a symbol of the transitoriness of life. Am I correct?
Sorry for the late reply☺️
My modern ears, which know western scales, can feel the same melancholy in this song as you do. My impression is that the melody of this song is not about human sentimentality, but about the old Japanese landscape itself🌸🌸🌸
You are right, sakura is not only a symbol of spring, but also of fleeting life. It is said that their gracefulness and their ability to fall away is the reason why the Japanese love them so much🌸✨✨✨
Enjoyed this nice melody, greetings from england.
