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 tracks (21–30)

It’s the theme song from the Madonna-starring film Evita.

Composed by the king of musical theatre, Andrew Lloyd Webber, with lyrics by Tim Rice, Madonna delivers a beautiful performance.

Even when you’re anxious about an unseen world, this song feels like it will guide you toward the light.

It’s a song you want to listen to when you want to unleash your power and feel refreshed.

The bass explodes right from the intro.

When you’re feeling vaguely unsettled or want to reset your mindset, it seems good to listen to this once, then calmly get back to work.

It also sounds easy to play as a band, so it seems like a good choice for your first band, too.

Jason Mraz’s “You Might Like It” is a feel-good track from his eighth album, Mystical Magical Rhythmical Radical Ride.

In particular, the chorus carries a message like: “Chasing your dreams is tough, but if you keep at it, you might just grow to love that dream—so give it a try.” It’s the kind of message that will put your mind at ease when you feel like giving up.

Combined with its upbeat vibe, this song makes it feel like good things will come if you keep working toward your dreams while listening to it.

I think this is especially true for men, but crying in front of others is embarrassing, isn’t it? So even when it’s painful, we tend to hide our tears.

At times like that, the chorus line, “Come here, nobody cares that you’re crying,” really sinks into my heart.

My Songs Know What You Did In The DarkFall Out Boy

Fall Out Boy – My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark (Light Em Up) – Part 1 of 11
My Songs Know What You Did In The DarkFall Out Boy

The song is by the American pop punk band Fall Out Boy.

While the band is often associated with upbeat tracks, “My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark” has a particularly strong rock vibe and an overall grand sound, making it a guaranteed crowd-pleaser! The lyrics about overcoming the past and lighting a fire also connect well with sports scenes.

It’s great not only as a sports anthem, but also for players to motivate themselves.

A track that sings about success built on years of effort.

It was released in 2013 by the American rock band Imagine Dragons.

The music video, inspired by moon landing conspiracy theories, was filmed in Utah.

What Beyoncé is singing about is her exasperation with the man she broke up with and her confident, empowered attitude—but that’s surely a feeling men can have toward women too.

If you’re single, hands up! Go all out, get sexy, and feel amazing! After all, she’s a celeb.

She turns heartbreak into a fun, upbeat song.

If you’re tired of listening to sad breakup tunes, definitely give it a listen.
