The One and Only Flower in the WorldSMAP
A classic SMAP song that colored Japan, released in 2003 and surpassing triple million sales.
Known for being written by Noriyuki Makihara, the song maintains a warm atmosphere throughout, and its “only one” message resonates deeply.
Even with different forms and roles, people acknowledge one another and unite as a team to aim for Koshien.
It’s a track that overlaps with the way high school baseball players live their lives.
“Sekai ni Hitotsu Dake no Hana,” also used as the entrance and marching song for the Spring Koshien and as station melodies, is a wonderful song that not only shines on the main stage but also seems to recognize the daily efforts made along the way.
Bridge of Gloryyuzu
It’s an ultra-classic track that pairs perfectly with all kinds of sports, not just baseball.
Since it became the official theme song for NHK’s Athens Olympics broadcasts, it’s been played whenever highlighting great moments from various sports, and it boasts outstanding name recognition even compared to other Olympic theme songs.
HigherSHE’S
SHE’S’s “Higher” was the official MBS theme song for the Spring Senbatsu that was scheduled to be held in spring 2020.
That year, both the spring and summer tournaments were canceled due to the impact of COVID-19.
Even so, SHE’S sent their support to high school baseball players who continued to practice hard every day with this song! Set to a refreshing melody like the pleasant breeze of spring, it conveys the message: no matter how tough things get, let’s overcome them with our teammates and aim higher! Even in situations where it’s hard to practice freely, if you encourage each other and keep going with your teammates, you will definitely see a light of hope!
NonfictionsDa-iCE
An inspiring anthem that powerfully pushes you forward, declaring that each person’s story is the greatest drama of all.
This song by the dance and vocal group Da-iCE was chosen as the support song for the 107th National High School Baseball Championship.
With lyrics penned by the members themselves, it beautifully captures the conflicts of clashing with teammates and the bittersweetness of youth.
By shining a light not only on the protagonists but also on the stories of those who support them, this piece may make you feel that your own efforts are empowering someone too.
It’s a song that stands beside everyone striving toward their goals.
Sora-buneTOKIO
TOKIO’s “Sora Fune” (“The Ship in the Sky”) fires you up with the message: don’t stop rowing your own oar—keep pushing to win the Spring Koshien (Senbatsu) championship! Written and composed by Miyuki Nakajima, the song was selected as the entrance march for the opening ceremony of the 79th Spring Senbatsu.
It was also the theme song for the drama “My Boss My Hero” starring Tomoya Nagase.
With its powerful melody and vocals, the song gives you the strength to keep going.
You can feel the message: don’t leave things to others—run on toward your team’s ultimate goal, and your own personal goals!
ultramarineYOASOBI
This is a song by YOASOBI that was also chosen as the entrance march for the 94th National High School Baseball Invitational Tournament (Senbatsu).
Influenced by Tsubasa Yamaguchi’s manga Blue Period, the song was created based on the Alfort commercial story text “Make Blue Your Ally.” The lyrics depict reaching desperately toward something in the distance and moving forward in one’s own way by trusting in what one has built up so far.
It’s a perfect fit for scenes of high school baseball, where players are striving toward their goals.

Arigatou by Ikimono-gakari, which was also used as the entrance march for the opening ceremony of the 83rd National High School Baseball Invitational Tournament, has been included as a choral piece in high school music textbooks.
