The song that gets me fired up before an important match is RADWIMPS’ “Catharsist.” Released in 2018, it was used that same year as the theme song for soccer broadcasts on Fuji TV.

Its addictive, hip-hop-style melody really stands out.

The lyrics convey the message: to achieve goals—whether it’s the desire to win or the drive to keep aiming higher—fight with everything you’ve got right now.

It’s a must-listen for students who are determined to win.

Her debut track showcases her overwhelming vocal prowess.

A truly powerful song!
