Added by bernard-dewagtere, 09 Mar 2009 Japanese traditional song sakura sakura was primarily
played on shakuhachi (bamboo flute). During World War
II, the sakura being an enduring metaphor for the
ephemeral nature of life, was used to motivate the
Japanese pilots. They would paint them on the sides of
their suicide planes. Their souls were reincarnated in
the blossoms. |
