Childish WarSakushi: Reoru / Sakkyoku: Giga P
The popular Vocaloid song “Childish War” is a track that portrays a close-knit pair of brothers.
The lyrics depict exchanges between a slightly unreliable older brother and a responsible younger brother.
Listening to this song feels like you’re right there hearing a sibling squabble up close (lol).
If you have siblings, you might find yourself chuckling and thinking, “We used to talk just like this,” or “This is exactly how we argue every day!” With siblings, the closer you are, the less you hold back.
But in the end, you’re the ones who understand each other best.
LinkL’Arc〜en〜Ciel
This song was used as a theme for the anime Fullmetal Alchemist.
The series depicts the bond between brothers, and this track ties into that theme.
Songs about bonds and gratitude are often reflective or ballads, but this one is a bright, fast-paced anthem about brotherhood.
Whether you love the series or not, pay attention to the lyrics—they really hit home.
brotherhoodB’z
It was released in 1999 as a track on B’z’s album Brotherhood.
Beyond the literal meaning of true brothers, the song is about their relationships with the people connected to them.
Inaba has said, “I created it with the theme of comrades who are connected even when they’re apart.” Thinking of it that way, you could say that brothers might be the beginning of comradeship.
Brother ShipsToba Ichirō
“Kyōdai-bune” — even if you haven’t heard the song itself, you might have at least heard its title, right? “Kyōdai-bune” is a song that celebrates brotherly love through the image of a ship.
Enka really is cool with its powerful vocal delivery.
Ichirō Toba’s straightforward singing feels great.
It’s a track where you can feel not only the bond between brothers, but also a gentle yet strong affection for family, including parents.
Sibling quarrelZushi Sankyōdai
This is the kind of song that makes you want to say, “Is there a cooler track about sibling rivalry than this?” True to its name, Sibling Quarrel is a 2017 digital release by Zushi Sankyoudai, a music unit of three real-life brothers from Zushi City in Kanagawa Prefecture.
If you grew up with three brothers—or in a household of boys—you’ll probably find yourself nodding along in recognition.
The lyrics vividly capture the reality of brothers’ fights, and beyond that, it’s an irresistibly cool, compelling track.
RPGSEKAI NO OWARI
This is a song that was used as the theme song in a Crayon Shin-chan movie.
It’s well-known as a song about friendship, but it has also resonated with many people as a song dedicated to a younger brother.
When a new sibling is born, listening to it together as a family might leave a distinctly different impression.

New WorldKasarinchu
Kasarincyu is a duo based in Amami, Kagoshima Prefecture, currently on hiatus.
Their song “New World” is their fourth single, released in 2013.
Although the word “brother” doesn’t appear, you can tell it’s about someone who understands your feelings without you having to say them—someone you fully rely on.
As adults, we sometimes suddenly recall our childhood and the past, and how we used to take on anything without overthinking it.
This song evokes those childhood days and the sibling who was there by your side.
