Watadori is one of [ALEXANDROS]’s signature songs.
Released in 2015, it was their 10th single.
You’ve probably heard it often as a tie-in track or in commercials.
It’s a must at their live shows and festivals, a number that brings the whole venue together.
The powerful song likens overcoming life’s hardships to the strength of migratory birds that change their habitats with the seasons and travel long distances.
It’s the perfect track to crank up in the morning and lift your spirits for a positive day.
Feeling great!!mihimaru GT
“Kibun Jojo ↑↑,” a track by the hip-hop group mihimaru GT released in 2006.
When you listen to this song, you can almost hear the sound quality of old cellphone ringtones playing in your head.
For the true 2006 ringtone generation, it’s a deeply nostalgic tune.
It’s an up-tempo number that gives off a lively, energetic vibe rather than a calm one.
While it’s a party tune, it somehow feels wholesome and pleasantly refreshing.
Full-Power BoySukima Suichi
With an instantly bursting passion from the intro, Sukima Switch’s “Zenryoku Shonen” feels like it can fill you with energy.
It’s famous as a song that gives you strength and a push from behind, and many people have probably been encouraged by it over the years.
It’s also been used in many tie-ins.
Released in 2005, the fact that it still gives people courage and energy after all this time is proof it’s a classic.
It’s a highly recommended feel-good song that will lift your spirits on those mornings when you just can’t get motivated.
Fictionsumika
Let the fluttering piano tones send your sleepiness flying away! This track by the popular pop-rock band sumika was included on their single “Fiction e.p,” released in 2018.
It was used as the opening theme for the anime Wotakoi: Love Is Hard for Otaku.
The catchy melody pairs perfectly with the cheerful vocals, and just listening to it fills you with energy! It’s an uplifting tune that makes you think, “Today is going to be a great day.”
Horoscopes and the MorningKaneko Ayano
This song has a mood that feels like a breakfast table, and those kinds of scenes even appear in the lyrics.
Singer-songwriter Ayano Kaneko, who shines in both solo acoustic and full band styles, released the single “Horoscope and Morning” in 2020.
Its airy, sprightly, and crisp sound feels a bit retro yet romantic.
I think it suits both busy mornings and leisurely ones.
It might be nice to get ready to head out while “Horoscope and Morning” plays.
It’s a lovely morning song, featuring Ayano Kaneko’s uniquely comforting way of depicting everyday life.
breakfastMrs. GREEN APPLE
Produced in the milestone year of their 10th anniversary, this song was released in June 2025 as the theme for Fuji TV’s information program “Sun! Shine.” Its title, symbolizing the start of the day—morning—embodies both the freshness of greeting a new dawn and the inner conflicts that waver in everyday life.
An ambitious work that blends breezy pop-rock with dance-tune elements, it also drew attention for its first full-fledged dance music video in about three years.
As a theme for a morning information show, the track is sure to gently nudge listeners as they begin their day.
Whether during your commute, on the way to school, or while getting ready in the morning, listening to it will help you kick off a new day with a positive mindset.

youthful daysMr.Children
As expected, every Mr.Children song is a masterpiece, and each one gives you energy.
There are plenty of opinions on which classics are best to hear in the morning, but how about the 2001 hit “youthful days”? In the morning, you want a grand, liberating track to reset your mood.
The soaring chorus gives you such a rush that you’ll feel like you’re about to take off running.
Hope it helps you start your day on a great note!
