Recommended Western songs for elementary school boys: World classics and popular tracks (61–70)

I’m ALIVE!Becca

This is a famous song by BECCA that was used as the theme song for the anime adaptation of the hugely popular manga “Black Butler” among elementary school students.

It’s a Western pop number that combines a catchy rhythm with easy-to-sing lyrics, and it’s a tune that elementary schoolers often hum—no wonder it’s so popular with them.

JoJo Siwa is a hugely popular charismatic kid in the United States—she’s actually a YouTuber.

With her sparkling songs and dances, she’s a role model for kids.

“HIGH TOP SHOES” is a powerful, uplifting track that’s perfect for the sporty autumn season.

Since autumn is the season of Halloween, I’ll introduce this slightly scary song.

I think many elementary school kids today might not know Michael Jackson, but he truly was a genius at both singing and dancing.

The song has a great beat and is easy to remember, so I really hope you’ll listen to it at least once.

Disney Channel’s “ZOMBIES” has become hugely popular since it first aired.

The story and comedy elements make it fun, but the songs are worth noting too.

“My Year” has upbeat, positive lyrics that can make anyone happy, so it’s a great recommendation for the fall when the new school term begins.

Gotta Be YouOne Direction

It’s a One Direction number released in 2011.

In the music video, you can see the members looking fresh and still a bit innocent at the time.

It has a slow tempo and simple lyrics, making it easy enough to understand and likely helpful for junior high school English listening practice.

FirefliesOwl City

If you’re a middle schooler who likes the Poppo Song, you know Owl City too, right? This track is becoming a new benchmark for pop songs, so it’s definitely not one to miss.

In those sensitive middle school years, you need pop with this level of sparkle.

White ChristmasBing Crosby

It’s no exaggeration to say this is the world’s second best-selling song—a global Christmas classic.

The chorus of “I’m dreaming of a white Christmas” is slow and easy, so even elementary school students can sing it without any trouble.

It’s easy to listen to and sing, making it a popular number among grade-schoolers.
