Cheer songs in Western music recommended for men: world-class masterpieces and popular tracks.
Somehow, when it comes to so-and-so kinds of Western music, I can’t help but want to compare the difference in direction with Japanese music of the same genre—and I’m going to do that this time too.
In Japanese music, there are many artists who sing supportive songs gently or in a pop style, whereas in Western music there are a lot of hype-you-up anthems that feel like they’re shouting, “You can do it!!!”
Also, the writing by the people who did each review in this article is really entertaining.

Cheer-up Western songs recommended for men: World-famous masterpieces and popular tracks (41–50)
PILLOWTALKZAYN
This is the first song Zayn released after leaving One Direction, which had originally been a girls’ idol group.
Defying most expectations, Zayn successfully reinvented his image with this track and even won over male fans.
For men as well, this song of his is surely a masterpiece.
Crazy Crazy NightsKISS
KISS’s classic anthem “Crazy Crazy Nights.” It’s a song that lifts you up with straightforward, unpretentious words.
You can enjoy both KISS’s powerful vocals and their top-tier musicianship in this one track.
The lyrics are so positive you might think they belong to an anime protagonist, so it could be worth checking them out.
You’ll be moved by both the melody and the lyrics! It’s a highly recommended song not just for tough times, but also when you want to push yourself.
I Don’t Wan’t Miss A ThingAerosmith
It was used as the theme song for the 1998 film Armageddon and became a huge hit.
The band earned its first-ever No.
1 on the U.S.
singles chart, holding the top spot for an impressive four consecutive weeks.
It was also nominated for Best Original Song at the 71st Academy Awards.
In an American TV program’s “Top 100 Songs Chosen by Americans,” it even surpassed Michael Jackson to claim the No.
1 spot.
It’s undeniably a classic.
If a guy can sing this well, he might score major points with the ladies.
Bad DayDaniel Powter
If you’re on a karaoke date with a woman you’re not quite in a relationship with yet and want to win her over, this Daniel Powter love song is the one to sing.
The melody is great, so a sweet moment will likely come for the two of you.
The melodic progression is straightforward, so it should be easy to sing, too.
We Are The ChampionsQueen
Among the Queen songs that saw a revival with the massive success of the 2018 film, this is the one that appeals most to Japanese listeners.
It’s a ballad and a global anthem, and it’s probably more fun to sing with a group than solo.
