Band Ranking Popular with Teens [2026]

GO!!!FLOW71rank/position

FLOW – GO!!! – Pv – Naruto Opening 4

When you go to karaoke with friends, you want to get pumped up and have everyone get excited together, right? In times like that, I recommend FLOW’s “GO!!!”.

It was also used as the opening theme for the anime Naruto.

Its bright tone and bouncy rhythm will lift your spirits as you listen.

Try splitting the rap parts and singing it as a male duet.

If you can pull it off cleanly, it looks super cool.

For the final chorus, focus on the interplay between the lead and the rap as you sing.

LONGMAN 'Spiral' Music Video (TV Anime 'Mushoku Tensei II: Jobless Reincarnation' Opening Theme)

LONGMAN is a three-piece band with male-and-female twin vocals that made their major-label debut in 2019.

They’ve provided numerous anime theme and tie-in songs, and their track “spiral” is used as the opening theme for the anime Mushoku Tensei II: Jobless Reincarnation.

Stories about once having a dream that ultimately didn’t come true are everywhere.

This song resonates like a declaration from one’s present, grown-up self to their past self: the dream didn’t come true, but here’s how I’ll live and move forward from now on.
