[For High School Students] A Collection of Motivational Songs to Boost Your Study Focus (91–100)
Funny BunnyELLEGARDEN

This song is recommended for high school students who love rock bands! Originally it’s a track by the rock band the pillows, but the version I’m introducing today is the cover by ELLEGARDEN, a group very familiar to high schoolers.
The best part of this song is, without a doubt, its lyrics! When you’re losing confidence in yourself, listening to this song will affirm all the effort you’ve put in so far and gently encourage you, telling you, “You’re the one who will make your dreams come true!!”
HURTSHomecomings

As a song to play before you start studying, Homecomings’ “HURTS” is perfect.
The open, expansive band sound and vocalist Ayaka Tateno’s voice are soothing, and they give you courage when you’re beginning something new.
Maybe it’s precisely because the guitar phrases and drum work aren’t overbearing that the tones slip so easily into your head.
End of the dayMr.Children

This Mr.
Children song is the one that will support you when you want to make that final push.
They formed in 1989, but they’re still popular among today’s high school students! When you’re “so close, but just not quite there,” if you really read the lyrics to this song, you’ll find the strength to push a little harder.
These lyrics gently encourage a heart that’s feeling a bit timid and give you the courage to keep running.
I hope every high school student striving toward their goals will listen to it.
UnlovelessMrs. GREEN APPLE

This is an upbeat rock tune that blows away the feeling of “I can’t be bothered.” It’s a song by Mrs.
GREEN APPLE, included on the album ANTENNA released in July 2023.
While singing with a touch of irony about self-love and the desire for approval, the lyrics deliver a memorable, forward-looking message: “Let’s love.
Just love.” It’s a powerful cheer song that resonates with the troubled hearts of people today.
When you’re lacking motivation to study, listening to it should naturally give you the courage to look ahead.
Be sure to play it as a refreshing break during your exam study sessions!
InfernoMrs. GREEN APPLE

A rock number marked by powerful guitar riffs and a driving, fast-paced drum beat! Included on Mrs.
GREEN APPLE’s album “Attitude,” released in July 2019, this track captured many hearts as the opening theme for the TV anime Fire Force.
It earned Gold certification for streaming and is highly regarded as one of the band’s signature songs.
The lyrics celebrate the importance of keeping your head up and moving forward, embracing life’s fragility while holding on to hope.
Perfect for daily workouts and high-intensity training, this song will be a reliable companion when you want to boost your motivation or fire yourself up.
