Brazilian National Anthem
The singing of national anthems is one of the highlights of the FIFA World Cup, and it’s fascinating to distinguish each country’s distinctive melody.
At the 2014 World Cup, the host nation Brazil’s anthem became a hot topic.
There’s a time limit for national anthems at international soccer matches, and Brazil’s anthem is too long to fit within it.
Normally the music would be cut off partway through, but at this tournament, after the accompaniment ended, the supporters and players continued a cappella and sang it all the way to the end.
The atmosphere was so moving that some players sang in tears, making it one of the tournament’s standout moments.
The dream you chasedGACKT
Released as GACKT’s 13th single, it was chosen as the image song for WOWOW European Soccer.
With an exhilarating, fast-paced sound that gives courage to everyone chasing their dreams, it strongly pushes listeners forward.
Your FriendWEAVER
WEAVER debuted as a three-piece piano rock band.
This song was selected as the support song for the 89th All Japan High School Soccer Championship.
Like the three members who were connected by music during their high school days, it serves as an anthem encouraging high school students striving toward their dreams, giving listeners a sense of hope and inspiration.
Thunderous applauseLiSA
This is the official theme song for ABEMA and TV Asahi’s FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 programs.
Now in the 11th year of her solo career, LiSA brings a powerful sound that captures both her passion for the field of singing and the fighting spirit of every player participating in the World Cup.
As you listen, don’t you start to feel your body itch with excitement, thinking, “Let’s cheer with everything we’ve got so that the players—who have practiced until they were worn out for this one-and-only match—are rewarded for their efforts and we can see their victorious smiles!”
