In Japan, it was chosen as the theme song for the 2012 film Space Brothers.
The lyrics convey that the sweat and tears you’ve shed are never in vain; because you understand that pain, you can be kind to others.
It’s an encouraging song that carries the message that it’s okay to cry when you feel like crying.
Highway StarDeep Purple
This is a track by the legendary band Deep Purple, who left behind numerous classic songs.
It’s packed with everything that defines Deep Purple: Ian Gillan’s powerful wails, Jon Lord’s artistic lead work on the organ, and Ritchie Blackmore’s striking guitar solo—making it irresistibly cool.

Released in October 2000, this is Green Day’s 15th single, included on their sixth studio album “WARNING,” which was released the same month.
As the title suggests, the song centers on the theme of being in the minority, delivering an encouraging message about staying true to the path you believe in—even if you’re a MINORITY or all alone.
Cheering Songs by Western Bands (11–20)
Kickstart My HeartMötley Crüe
An energetic up-tempo number by Mötley Crüe, who fired up the LA metal scene with their wild sound.
It kicks off with a destructive tone created by guitar whammy work and plunges into a thrilling groove.
Vince Neil’s soaring vocals and Mick Mars’s distinctive guitar solo pack it with appeal.
Never dieYngwie Malmsteen
This is a high-impact track by the sovereign of shred who revolutionized the guitar world, Yngwie Malmsteen.
It kicks off with a riff that fuses classical elements with the power of rock, and features Mike Vescera—also known for his work with Loudness—delivering a scream-filled vocal, while Yngwie unleashes blistering guitar solos that are incredibly cool.
ThroneBring Me The Horizon
We all want to avoid pain and hardship if we can.
However, the message in this song—“Go ahead and hurt me; that’s what makes me who I am”—conveys not an urge to flee from pain but a willingness to face it head-on.
Living like that would be pretty cool, I think.
Cake By The OceanDNCE
This is a unique track that expresses fun and passion over a breezy funk-pop groove.
The September 2015 debut by American dance-rock band DNCE skillfully weaves in elements of 1970s disco and R&B, spinning a metaphor that likens a romantic seaside moment to sweet treats.
Brimming with a spirit of adventure and humor, the lyrics and Joe Jonas’s charming vocals harmonize in perfect balance.
Reaching the Top 10 on the Billboard charts, the song continues to captivate listeners worldwide with its funky guitar riffs and catchy melodies.
It’s an ideal pick for parties or drives, and a great choice whenever you want to lift your mood.
