Cheer songs in Western music recommended for men: world-class masterpieces and popular tracks.
Somehow, when it comes to so-and-so kinds of Western music, I can’t help but want to compare the difference in direction with Japanese music of the same genre—and I’m going to do that this time too.
In Japanese music, there are many artists who sing supportive songs gently or in a pop style, whereas in Western music there are a lot of hype-you-up anthems that feel like they’re shouting, “You can do it!!!”
Also, the writing by the people who did each review in this article is really entertaining.

Cheering Songs in Western Music Recommended for Men: World Classics and Popular Hits (91–100)
I’m a BelieverThe Monkees
A catchy track written by Neil Diamond and released in 1966 by the American band The Monkees.
It reached No.
1 on charts around the world and has been covered by artists such as Smash Mouth and the Four Tops.
Never Let DownAndrew W.K.
Perhaps because of the debut album’s nosebleed cover, Andrew W.
K.
is often seen as a “go-all-out party dude,” but this track is a powerful anthem that says, “No matter how you mess up, I’m on your side.” It has a different appeal from his relentlessly upbeat party rock.
Smells Like Teen SpiritNirvana
It’s a song that’s been covered all over the world, and it was the catalyst that took the rock scene by storm.
You can feel Kurt Cobain’s personal life and spirit in it.
While it might give off a dark image, the force of the vocals conveys a power that feels like it goes beyond music.
By The WayRed Hot Chili Peppers
Here’s a song from the hugely popular band Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Their music is great, of course, but watching their live performances and their goofy, over-the-top personalities makes it feel silly to stay down, so they’re a band that lifts you up both with their songs and their presence.
They have tons of great tracks, but I picked a famous one: “By the Way.”
The Long And Winding RoadThe Beatles
The Beatles’ classic, “The Long and Winding Road.” It’s the perfect song to listen to while feeling a little immersed in your own long, difficult journey.
Carried by its beautiful orchestration and sweeping grandeur, this song makes me feel like I can start bit by bit with what’s right in front of me—and stay positive.
DreamsThe Cranberries
It’s the song that became the theme for the 1998 movie “You’ve Got Mail,” and it probably feels like something you’ve heard somewhere before.
As befits the theme song of a romantic comedy, both the sound and the lyrics nicely capture a man and woman pursuing their dreams.
It’s the perfect background music for you as you work hard for the sake of the woman you love.
So GoodAustin Mahone
Austin Mahone’s debut single, which is used in a Samantha Thavasa commercial.
The phrase “You’re beautiful,” repeated many times, makes this a song that men who dream of meeting a woman they can say that to should listen to.
Meeting someone like that is a miracle.
