[Alexandros] – Wataridori (MV)

A signature number by [Alexandros], with a driving melody and piercing high-register vocals that stir the listener’s heart.

It was included on a single released in March 2015 and is also known as the theme song for the film “Ake Garasu (Akegarasu).” The lyrics, which depict striving single-mindedly toward dreams and goals like a bird spreading its wings and soaring into the sky, really resonate.

When your mock exam results aren’t great or you feel anxious because you can’t see what lies ahead, the song’s positive energy will give you a push forward.

It’s a track I want exam takers to keep as a good-luck charm—something to listen to when you want to believe in yourself and sprint all the way to the finish.

[Alexandros] – Tomorrow, Again (MV)

While their signature song “Wataridori” also carries a message that really hits home, the track “Ashita, Mata” seeps in gently—and it might just let all those pent-up feelings burst out and make you cry.

Released in 2017, it was also featured in a Clorets commercial.

Its appeal lies in lyrics that resonate deeply with people carrying various struggles or emotional wounds—those feeling defeated by their current situation, heartbroken, or troubled by relationships.

It’s a song that slowly spreads through your heart, offering a sense of comfort and reassurance.

[Alexandros] – Philosophy (MV)

Here’s a song I especially want high school students who feel like “Someone like me…” to listen to.

It was created in 2019 for a music event called “18-fes,” which brings together 18-year-olds from across the country.

The reason I recommend it is, plainly, the lyrics! I think many people feel weak or insecure about studying, but these lyrics acknowledge and accept those feelings—lack of confidence and negative emotions—and then tell you, “Go do it your way!!” When you’re having a hard time facing your studies, give this song a listen.

[Alexandros] – Heart Rate of Zero (MMV)

An uplifting song with a driving rock sound and lyrics that convey straight-ahead passion.

Created by [Alexandros] as the opening theme for the TV anime Ao Ashi, it’s a perfect fit for this coming-of-age drama centered on soccer.

Since its digital release in June 2022, it has captured the hearts of many listeners, reaching No.

13 on the Oricon Weekly Digital Singles chart and No.

97 on the Billboard Japan Hot 100.

It’s a track you’ll want to add to any playlist for sports—whether you need a boost in motivation or are pushing toward your goals.

[Alexandros] – Transcend (MV) (Anime “Uma Musume: Cinderella Gray” Season 1 Opening Theme)

[Alexandros], a rock band that continues to captivate fans with overwhelming musicianship and a one-of-a-kind presence.

This track, included on their album PROVOKE released in April 2025, was selected as the opening theme for the anime Uma Musume: Cinderella Gray.

Its worldview—portraying the act of overcoming walls such as one’s own limits, the past, and the expectations of others—will surely resonate powerfully with those standing at the major milestone of graduation.

A dynamic ensemble that balances tension and release will turn anxiety about the future into courage.

Give it a listen when you want to steel yourself to dash into the unknown, or when you need to fire yourself up.

[Alexandros] – Flash (MV)

Anchored by powerful guitar riffs and an exhilarating rock sound, [Alexandros]’s theme song paints a grand narrative.

Released in May 2021, the track brilliantly captures the world of the feature-length anime Mobile Suit Gundam: Hathaway.

The lyrics, rich with deep messages—ranging from past pain to hope for the future and dialogues with one’s inner voice—are also perfect for moments like stoking competitive spirit during a tug-of-war at a school sports day! Its driving sound and empowering message strengthen team unity and will surely become a reliable ally when you’re fighting for victory.

[ALEXANDROS] – Pray (MV)

It’s a beautiful song by the rock band [ALEXANDROS], who have won wide popularity not only in live houses and the rock scene but also in living rooms across the country.

You might wonder, “Is this song a cheer song?” But aren’t the families, friends, and managers supporting high school baseball all watching the games with a prayerful heart? I hope our cheers reach the players.
