Arashi is a nationally beloved idol group.
The song they created as the cheer anthem for the 2018 summer high school baseball tournament is Natsu Hayate.
It’s a track that portrays high school baseball players savoring the joys of a summer youth.
The lyrics depict the passage of time—from summer to autumn, from morning to night—conveying that youth goes by in a flash, and that’s exactly why we should enjoy it to the fullest.
The repeated use of the word “hayate” (a swift, gusting wind) reinforces this message.
Another appeal of the song is its structure—complete with chorus parts—that makes it easy for everyone to get excited together.

It’s a bittersweet love song that feels like softly murmuring the feelings kept deep in one’s heart while thinking of a former girlfriend after a breakup.
Let the cherry blossoms bloomarashi9rank/position
This is the perfect song to give to someone who’s moving on after a farewell and striving in a new place—the signature track by Arashi! “Sakura blooms” doesn’t just literally mean cherry blossoms opening; like saying exam success, it signifies that something you’ve challenged yourself with has gone well.
That forward-looking spirit is woven throughout the lyrics.
And before you set off running in a new place, there’s almost always a parting from your current environment and friends.
This song carries a powerful message: “Even after we part, the bonds we’ve built won’t disappear—so keep your head up and keep running forward!”
Sakura, Bloom!arashi10rank/position
When it comes to spring staples that instantly boost your mood with an energetic intro, this is the song! It’s Arashi’s single “Sakura Sake,” released in March 2005.

Just listening to it brings back vivid memories of your earnest younger self and the days spent with friends, and you might find your eyes welling up before you know it.
It blows away anxiety and gives you a powerful push toward the future.
It’s the ultimate cheer song that stays by your side in those precious moments when you want to wipe away your tears and say goodbye with a smile.
