"Sakura" (stylized in all caps) is the sixteenth and final track from Rosalía's third studio album, Motomami.
It's a flamenco number that's partly about how fame never lasts and shouldn't be the measure of an artist's ultimate worth. With the sound of a crowd in the distance, as if she's looking into a distant memory, Rosalía vocally digs in and channels her training into an emotional declaration of what she loves. She compares her time as a star to a cherry blossom and notes that her moment in the spotlight is likely to be as short-lived as the flower. This remains to be seen. For now, she's twisting the pop universe to suit her own vision, with glorious results.
