High School Students’ Birthday Songs that Deepen Friendship (91–100)
Happy Birthday To YouOfisharu Higedan Dism
“You can become any version of yourself from here on.” It’s a birthday song filled with that kind, encouraging message.
Known for their smash hit “Pretender,” Official HIGE DANDism included this track on their 2016 album “MAN IN THE MIRROR.” No matter how old we get, birthdays are special days that make us wonder if something good might happen.
Listening to this song on such a day will make you feel like, “Let’s try something new,” or “Let’s be brave and take on a challenge.” It’s a wonderful song that supports not only birthdays but also the days that follow for someone important to you.
My friendMiyuhan
It’s a beautiful song that portrays the friendships of youth.
Miyuhan’s clear, transparent voice vividly colors precious memories with friends.
Released in February 2017, this track was also used as the ending theme for the TV anime “Kemono Friends,” resonating with many listeners.
The lyrics contain both the sadness of parting from friends and the hope of seeing them again, making your heart swell every time you listen.
It’s a song I especially recommend to high school students.
Try humming it with friends or singing it at your graduation ceremony—it will surely become a wonderful, lasting memory.
A Poem to Giveyuzu
It’s said that this song was written by Yuzu for a fan who celebrated their birthday back when they were performing street gigs.
Yuzu are famous now, but in the days before that, they probably didn’t have much time or money.
That’s why the lyrics, which speak of giving a special “song” of their own, really hit home.
Some high school students aren’t allowed to have part-time jobs and can’t buy presents for friends or partners, right? In times like that, try giving them this song as a gift.

Original song – 💘 – 💘
There are times when you can’t help but worry, “Will we still be friends after graduation?” That’s when I’d like to recommend Wakamonotachi.
It’s a track released by the three-piece rock band Zutto Mayonaka de Iinoni.
Set to a driving, fast-paced rock sound, it sings of universal bonds and friendship.
Since it’s mid-tempo, it’s easy to use as background music for videos, and its lyrics make it perfect for moments when you want to reaffirm your friendship.
By the way, the music video is edited in a social media style, so it’s fun to mimic that as well.
I’m glad I met you.Inoue Sonoko
Released digitally in 2016, Sonoko Inoue’s “Kimi ni Deaete Yokatta” is a highly popular graduation song.
She actually wrote it when she was a senior in high school, making it a truly “real high school friendship song.” It conveys a message of deep gratitude to friends: even the things I couldn’t handle alone, I was able to overcome because you were there.
It’s the perfect song for expressing thanks, and it’s a number that reminds you of how precious your friends are.
