It's an old Japanese folk song called "Sakura sakura". I remember reading from an interview back in the 80's that they put it there as a sign of thank you for their loyal Japanese fans who had sent them a small music box that played this song.
And to this day, that remains the only Japanese I know, despite taking an evening class
I love the song, enough to say it's probably one of my favourite Jovi songs.
