Compilation of male friendship songs: Classic tracks you’ll want to play at a wedding (61–70)
Friendshipkingu gidora
This is King Giddra’s “Friendship.” It’s a song with straightforward lyrics about male camaraderie.
Many men will probably relate to it.
The lyrics are striking in how they express that friendship isn’t all good, which is part of their appeal.
FriendKetsumeishi
Ketsumeishi’s “Tomodachi” is a song about parting with a friend.
Whether it’s a childhood pal or a classmate you spent almost every day with, someday you each go your own way.
Its beautiful melody and powerful lyrics speak to you, saying, “Even if you’re far away, I’m always cheering you on,” and “When we meet again, let’s talk with the same feelings.” Even after getting married and starting a new life, it’s wonderful to look back and find a friendship that hasn’t changed.
My friend — from here on out, forever…Ketsumeishi
Ketsumeishi is a four-member music group formed in 1993 that rose to nationwide fame with their major 4th single, “Tomodachi.” The song was used as the theme for the Toho-distributed film “Crayon Shin-chan: Invasion!! Alien Shiriri” (Japanese title: Eiga Crayon Shin-chan Bakusui! Yumemi World Daitsugeki).
The music video features the comedy trio Dachō Club, delivering a production full of variety-show flair with both laughs and tears.
Set against a lively beat, the track makes liberal use of synthesizers, and above all, its lyrics expressing passionate friendship leave a strong impression.
It’s the kind of song you’ll want to sing at karaoke with old friends!
Bond.haji→
It’s a song by Haji→ that captures the intense friendship between men.
Although it’s not specifically themed around weddings, the soaring chorus is moving, and I think even men might find themselves tearing up when they hear the lyrics.
It’s filled with the sentiment that this friendship won’t change no matter where we are—that we’ll always have each other’s back—and, just like the title suggests, it’s a song that lets you truly feel the depth of their bond.
Singing it together with your buddies and ending in a big chorus that pulls in the groom as well would make for a great memory.
Happy Summer WeddingMōningu Musume.
One of Morning Musume’s early signature songs, from a group that has kept leading the idol scene while changing its name and members over the years.
It’s also famous among fans as the first single featuring the golden 4th generation—Tsuji, Kago, Yoshizawa, and Ishikawa.
The lyrics express gratitude to parents, and the song has practically become a staple for dance performances by the bride’s friends at wedding receptions.
If you’re a friend of the bride looking for a song for the entertainment segment, be sure to consider this one.
Happy Pre-Wedding SongYabai T-shatsu Yasan
One of the signature songs by the rock band Yabai T-Shirts Yasan, the single “Pineapple Senpai,” is included on the album “Galaxy of the Tank-top.” Its powerful, fast-paced sound directly conveys a sense of fun and liveliness.
The lyrics, told from the perspective of friends egging someone on to get married, are also a highlight.
While the content can come off as irresponsible, the lack of restraint can also feel like an honest depiction of an unpretentious friendship.
There’s also a version with adjusted lyrics to make it more suitable for wedding receptions, titled “Happy Wedding Mae Song (Won’t Break Up Within 2 Years ver.),” so be sure to check that out too.
March 9Remioromen
Remioromen’s “March 9th” is a classic that, despite being released in 2004, has long been loved as a soundtrack that accompanies many of life’s milestones.
Fujimaki wrote it as a song to send to a friend’s wedding, making it perfect for conveying heartfelt congratulations.
Sometimes, when you try to put feelings into words, what you want to say keeps overflowing and won’t quite come together.
It all feels like it went by in a flash, yet when you look back on the long time spent together, you can’t help but wish for even more happiness ahead.
When feelings can’t be put into words, you entrust them to a song—an offering like that would surely become a lifelong memory.
