[Elementary School Students] Popular Western Music Rankings [By Generation] (81–90)
How Far I’ll GoAlessia Cara81rank/position

It’s the theme song from the international version of the Disney film “Moana” (released as “Moana” overseas).
While the song is also used as an insert track, this particular version was used as the end song.
It’s a grand yet warm piece that evokes the vast ocean, connecting closely to the film’s story.
abcdefuGAYLE82rank/position

GAYLE is a female singer-songwriter who gained support from young people around the world after a viral hit on TikTok.
She’s a young artist, but her musical style is already well established.
Among her works, the song I especially recommend for elementary school students is “abcdefu.” It’s sung in a near-whisper voice, so for elementary school kids whose voices haven’t fully changed yet, it might be surprisingly easy to sing.
Another point is that precocious elementary schoolers will find many of the lyrics relatable.
I Will Always Love YouWhitney Houston83rank/position

It’s a song that could be considered one of American singer Whitney Houston’s signature tracks.
The very first word of the climactic chorus draws attention—widely praised and often used as a fun reference—so it’s highly well-known.
The song itself is a magnificent masterpiece with a gentle resonance, so please take your time and listen closely.
Beautiful DayU284rank/position

A four-piece band that emerged from Ireland.
The vocals—Bono’s voice—draw attention from around the world.
Listening to this track, delivered with a crystal-clear sound throughout, will let you take your first step into the world of U2.
It’s a song I especially recommend when you’re feeling down.
Hello KittyAvril Lavigne85rank/position

Avril Lavigne, who sparked a massive boom in Japan in the 2000s as a rock singer, has performed live here many times and is a musician with deep ties to Japan.
Are you familiar with her surprising 2014 release, aptly titled “Hello Kitty”? It blends a rock-EDM vibe with Japanese lyrics and takes as its theme Hello Kitty, the beloved character from the Japanese company Sanrio.
For girls who probably owned at least one Hello Kitty item, it might be a great gateway into listening to Western music.
