See You Again (ft. Charlie Puth)Wiz Khalifa

Wiz Khalifa – See You Again ft. Charlie Puth [Official Video] Furious 7 Soundtrack

This is a moving ballad released in 2015 by popular rapper Wiz Khalifa.

Chosen as the theme song for the film Furious 7, it became a long-lasting global hit.

The lyrics, written as a tribute to actor Paul Walker, who died in a sudden accident, deeply resonate with listeners.

Carrying memories of a beloved friend who was lost, the song conveys a message about facing forward and continuing to live.

It perfectly matches the world of the Fast & Furious series, which reflects on Walker and values the bonds among companions.

It’s also a great choice for scenes like group gymnastics, where a team reaffirms its unity.

Rising SunYoshida Kiyoshi

Rising Sun – Kiyoshi Yoshida / Samurai Collection (Official Audio)

Kiyoshi Yoshida’s music, known for incorporating elements of Japan and Asia, often seems to be used in settings that showcase Japan, such as fireworks festivals and fashion show theme songs.

Among his pieces that evoke a sense of Japan, this track conveys a forward-driving energy reminiscent of a sunrise.

The resonant rhythms of taiko drums that reverberate through the body and the crisp tones of the shamisen heighten the anticipation for a grand stage.

A distinctive feature is the inclusion of the traditional “3-3-7” clapping rhythm, which evokes the atmosphere of a school sports day and helps build excitement.

An inspiring main theme composed by Takayuki Hattori for the drama “Rikuoh.” It’s a striking piece that combines a rich, dynamic orchestral sound with a piano melody that quietly unfolds like a storyteller.

Its dramatic development evokes a moving climax, while the warm harmonies convey the strong bonds between the characters, resonating deeply with listeners.

LemonYonezu Kenshi

Kenshi Yonezu – Lemon

When it comes to Kenshi Yonezu, the first song that comes to mind is this one.

I’m sure everyone knows it—Lemon.

It was a huge hit.

It’s a cool track with an energetic groove in both rhythm and melody.

The final pose in a group gymnastics routine is often a pyramid.

Building it from the bottom up is tough, so let Lemon give you courage.

A moving finale awaits.

Let’s spend a wonderful time with friends while listening to Kenshi Yonezu’s singing.

It’s such a cool number that even the exhaustion will just fly away.

Ten Thousand Cheers, A Thousand ChantsRADWIMPS

Banzai Sensho

This is a song by RADWIMPS created together with a thousand 18-year-olds for a special NHK program.

It carefully depicts, like a single story, the dreams and anxieties of young people and their forward-looking steps into the future, resulting in an energetic, stirring anthem of encouragement.

Included on the album ANTI ANTI GENERATION, it became a much-talked-about gem in 2018.

Born from the passionate feelings of the youth involved, the piece was also performed on RADWIMPS’ nationwide ANTI ANTI GENERATION TOUR 2019.

As a song that colors energetic scenes where large groups move as one—like at sports festivals or group gymnastics—it naturally envelops the venue in a positive atmosphere.

SMILE ~Like a Clear, Sunlit Sky~Kuwata Keisuke

Keisuke Kuwata “SMILE ~Like a Clear Blue Sky~” Commercial Broadcasters Official Special Movie (Joint Commercial Broadcasters Project ‘Let’s Do It Together’ Support Song)

Keisuke Kuwata, the vocalist of Southern All Stars, sings the refreshing “SMILE ~Harewataru Sora no Yō ni~.” Although Kuwata is strongly associated with summer songs, this track serves as a support song for “Let’s Do This Together 2020.” It’s a number that feels like a fresh breeze blowing through.

Its calm vibe makes it a great pick for elementary school sports days—especially for kumitaisō, the challenging group gymnastics event that requires careful, step-by-step construction.

“SMILE” will guide you to smiles under a clear blue sky.

It’s a wonderful number.

SummerHisaishi Joe

Joe Hisaishi – Summer

It’s Joe Hisaishi’s “Summer.” It was released in 1999 as the theme music for the film Kikujiro.

Even though it isn’t an old piece, it somehow makes you feel nostalgic, as if you’ve been listening to it forever.

Many people have probably heard it in a Toyota Corolla commercial as well.

It’s a melody that really resonates with the hearts of Japanese people.

I’ve heard that Hisaishi incorporated the sound of a school chime.

Using this piece for group gymnastics would make it especially memorable, as it would engrave itself in the hearts of students going about their daily school lives.
