Men’s Friendship Songs Collection: 71–80 of the Best Tracks to Play at Weddings
MIRAIShonan no Kaze
This song is built on an energetic, reggae-inspired sound that’s quintessentially Shonan no Kaze.
It carries a hopeful, forward-looking message, emphasizing the importance of bonds with friends and supporting one another.
Included on the album “2022 ~Time to Shine~,” it was released in July 2022.
The track sings about the importance of pursuing your dreams while facing reality, maintaining hope even in difficult times, and opening up the future together with your friends.
It’s a perfect fit for scenes that portray male friendship—like a message video for a male friend’s birthday or moments spent with friends at a wedding.
Dear BrideNishino Kana
Kana Nishino’s very first wedding song.
Friendship isn’t all about the good times—it’s something that’s born as you share the unpleasant and the sad moments too.
Since it’s the future chosen by the friend who’s been through those days with you, it’s bound to be something wonderful.
I’d love to give this song—stronger and kinder than any words of congratulations—to a friend who’s getting married!
CheersNagabuchi Tsuyoshi
One of Tsuyoshi Nagabuchi’s signature songs from when he could still easily be called a young man.
The muscular Nagabuchi of today is great, but the slightly lanky, long-haired Nagabuchi had a certain melancholy and was cool in his own way.
Back in the Showa era, when there weren’t as many graduation songs as there are now, everyone sang this at their graduation ceremonies.
Of course, it was also a staple at weddings.
Maybe the reason we still want to hear it, even as a classic, is because of its timeless appeal.
It’s a song that suits any new beginning in life, and if you can play guitar, I’d love for you to perform it.

Hey, my friendMr.forute
This song beautifully depicts the invisible bonds of friendship.
Written and composed by Mr.
Furbte’s vocalist, Tsukasa Inao, it was released as an advance digital single in January 2021.
Later included on the album “sweet life,” the track sets the precious ties between friends—and the ups and downs they overcome together—to a refreshing melody.
Starting in September of the same year, it was also chosen as the theme song for the Twitter drama “Itadakeba, Totoshi.” sponsored by the Nisshin Seifun Group, drawing attention as a track that colors the “delicious” moments of youth.
When you’re struggling to make memories with friends or want to express gratitude to your cherished companions, this song will be a reassuring ally.
Hang in there!TEE
It’s TEE’s “Ganbare yo.” It’s a perfect song for male friendship.
With its upbeat tempo and lyrics, it really gets you pumped, and it’s highly recommended as a cheer-up song for friends.
It’s very popular as a song to send to friends embarking on a new journey, and it’s a wonderful track.
FriendHirukuraimu
It’s “Tomoyo” by Hilcrhyme.
I love how the memories from when we first met are expressed with unpretentious lyrics.
It feels like this one song captures male friendship, and it’s also a great choice to send at a wedding.
It’s a song that powerfully conveys the message: Thank you for being my friend, even with someone like me.
GIRL TALKAmuro Namie
If you want to look back on memories of blossoming over love talks and express your friendship, Namie Amuro’s “GIRL TALK” is a great pick.
Released in 2004 as her 28th single, it reached No.
2 on the Oricon Singles Chart.
It was also used in a commercial for Mandom’s “LUCIDO-L Prism Magic Hair Color.” The lyrics, centered on women’s friendship, and the characteristically danceable Amuro-style track are really appealing.
For a wedding reception performance, why not gather your friends and give the dance a try?
