I want to order this...but I don’t know if I should...I’m so torn

I'm putting together a Spring JPop playlist and was wondering which DAI songs folk would recommend?

[Xianghua]

Yesterday & Today for sure!

I also get spring morning vibes from Rakuen.

I think Wadachi, Azayaka no Hana, Enrai, Another, and Wings 510 could fit a spring theme as well.


DAI's twitter has been posting video clips of PV's on Do The Complete. It's such a trip down memory lane!

I also noticed theres a Do The Complete "MINUS V" added on Spotify, it's all instrumental versions.

Thank you, have added to my playlist!

I forgot the new Best album had been released so had a bit of that on in the background whilst doing the housework today!

When you complete your list please share it back here!

I should have mentioned that I chose those songs because of the music that gives me spring feelings, not that the lyrics have to do with spring ^^;

Was listening to Do The Complete as well, and oh man, Iron Hornet is great!! I admit that I haven’t payed much attention to their music after they got back together (because eternal flame sounded like they were a different band) and I can’t believe I went 3 years not knowing about this song.

is DTC remastered?

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

Tao always gave me spring-y vibes haha. I know it’s technically a summer song but it’s a little more melancholy than a “normal” summer single.

(Also not DAI, but ELT’s “kimi no te” and Shimatani Hitomi’s “Camellia” remind me of spring!)

Yeah, I was kinda wondering as well. Hopefully it is.

[chocopockymaster]

I don’t think it’s remastered but I can check when my copy gets here later this week.

I’ve got all sorts of questions around what they had to do to prep for the UHQCD release lol I wish we got some more insight into that process

Will do! I actually haven't listen to it myself yet as it has Haru yo Koi on it and I want to wait to for A Ballads 2 to give it it's first "proper" listen outside of the PV lol!

So far on the playlist is:

Mika Nakashima - Sakurairo Mau Koro
Ai Otsuka - Sakura Harahara
Mika Nakashima - SAKURA ~Hanagasumi~
Ayumi Hamasaki - Haru yo Koi
Hikaru Utada - Sakura Drops
Moumoon - Evergreen
Moumoon - Myself
Do As Infinity - Yesterday & Today
Do As Infinity - Wadachi

The last few songs I have just bunged on the end so need to think about the order once I listen to the playlist! (Any other suggestions welcome btw!)

[thinkingoutloud89]

^I think you should have just one by each artist. Kana Nishino has a few spring themes, Sakura Ohara too.
I don't think Sakura Drops is that springy tho. For YUI you could also go with CHERRY bit she has a few other softer tunes.

[mi|kshake]

Thanks for the tip! Yeah Kana is a good shout! I do think I remember Hikki saying she considers Sakura Drop more of a summer than spring song.
