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.

This is an anthem by Beyoncé, whose powerful vocal sensibilities and luxurious R&B track sense have garnered immense popularity.

With a glamorous texture, it delivers a solid sound that’s perfect to listen to in September.

Never Let DownAndrew W.K.

Perhaps because of the debut album’s nosebleed cover, Andrew W.K.

is often seen as a “go-all-out party dude,” but this track is a powerful anthem that says, “No matter how you mess up, I’m on your side.” It has a different appeal from his relentlessly upbeat party rock.

It’s the theme song from the Madonna-starring film Evita.

It’s a song that’s been covered all over the world, and it was the catalyst that took the rock scene by storm.

You can feel Kurt Cobain’s personal life and spirit in it.

Here’s a song from the hugely popular band Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Their music is great, of course, but watching their live performances and their goofy, over-the-top personalities makes it feel silly to stay down, so they’re a band that lifts you up both with their songs and their presence.

They have tons of great tracks, but I picked a famous one: “By the Way.”
