I’ve worked in a variety of roles—regardless of pro or amateur settings—including live event PA, cameraman for video and photography, restaurant staff, and logistics center staff. I now spend my days as a part-time writer. I’ve contributed to music and manga websites with feature/review articles, and wrote the liner notes included as a bonus for 1st PLACE Inc.’s “IA SUPER BEST.” As for my music background, I started playing guitar in junior high and focused on band activities during my school years. For over 15 years since then, up to the present, I’ve continued releasing original tracks as a Vocaloid producer. My areas of expertise are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.
POPS writer/editorKEI
Since discovering music during my school days, I’ve mainly listened to Japanese and Korean pop. I have experience writing articles for sites like Utaten. 2000s J-pop and 2010s K-pop were especially the soundtrack of my youth. With the mindset that “good is good,” I enjoy music across genres. Thanks to past work environments and their influence, I was exposed to lots of classic rock and kayōkyoku (Japanese popular songs), which may have broadened the scope of what I love. At RAG MUSIC, I currently focus on K-pop and J-pop. I strive to edit with a feel for the scene and an eye for hit potential.

Every time the Olympics are held, a variety of songs are chosen as theme songs, right? In addition to NHK’s broadcast theme songs, the theme songs and cheer songs from commercial networks also draw attention.

And many of these songs go on to become staples not only for supporting sports but also as anthems that cheer people on in life, even after the Olympics are over.

In this article, we’ll introduce a comprehensive lineup of Olympic theme songs and cheer songs from over the years! It’s a parade of moving masterpieces that colored some of the most inspiring, unforgettable moments.

Water, land, and sky—infinitely.19

This is the fifth single by the folk duo 19, a song written specifically for the Sydney Olympics.

It also served as the official cheering song for the Japan national team through a tie-up with the Japanese Olympic Committee.

Although there had been official tie-ups before, this was the first song to be explicitly labeled as the “Official Cheering Song of the Japan National Team.”

Tokyo Olympic Ondo -2020-Ishikawa Sayuri, Kayama Yuzo, Takehara Pisutoru

Sung with the concept of “HAPPY & PEACE” for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, this is the Olympic song.

“Tokyo Gorin Ondo -2020-” is a modern remake of “Tokyo Gorin Ondo,” which was created for the 1964 Tokyo Olympics.

It also suits the Paralympics, and a key point is its choreography based on bon odori so everyone can enjoy it.

Delivered through a special collaboration by Sayuri Ishikawa, Yuzo Kayama, and Pistol Takehara, the song is a stylish track that captures the essence of summer, showcasing both splendor and the spirit of Japanese festivals.
