Japanese pop group AKB48’s latest single, Sakura no Shiori, (桜の栞) has topped the recent Oricon sales chart with over 300,000 copies sold in its first week of release, a record best in seven years for Japanese female artists.
It’s a nice choir-like song which is perfect for graduation season. The group’s debut single, Sakura no Hanabiratachi, was also a graduation themed song.
