Catchy Western Music Classics: Hit Songs Flowing Through Everyone’s Hearts [2026] (21–30)
Here For It AllMariah Carey
This piece, the title track and final song of the album Here For It All released in September 2025, begins as a piano-led ballad that gradually rises into a gospel-like swell.
The lyrics, which vow to remain “here” despite hardship and loss, are layered with a time-weathered vocal timbre and prayerful ad-libs, giving it a mature, universal quality distinct from the power ballads of the ’90s.
It stands as a symbolic number that Mariah Carey released under a new, strongly independent framework through her own imprint.
It’s a deeply resonant song I recommend for moments when you want to face yourself honestly, and when you want to feel the bonds you share with someone anew.
NightmareHalsey
This is a song by the American singer-songwriter Halsey, who has been gaining popularity especially among younger generations.
It was released in May 2019.
Her popularity is solid here in Japan as well, with “Without Me” being a long-running hit.
The energetic vocals and sound feel soul-stirring.
The lyrics, which convey the strength and resilience of women, are particularly striking.
SuckerJonas Brothers
As their band name suggests, Jonas Brothers is a rock band made up of three brothers.
Lead vocalist Joe Jonas also fronts DNCE, a band that scored major hits in the U.S.
and is known in Japan for collaborating with SEKAI NO OWARI.
In fact, Jonas Brothers had effectively disbanded since 2013, but they made their comeback with “Sucker,” released in 2019.
LightsBTS
A song by BTS (Bangtan Sonyeondan) performed in Japanese, featuring strikingly cool visuals as their popularity rises around the world.
The movement of Asian languages spreading globally feels fresh, and since they sing in Japanese, it’s a track where I want to read the message of the lyrics and interpret it in my own way.
Both the rap and the emotional chorus make it an exceptionally compelling listen.
Uptown FunkMark Ronson
Music producer Mark Ronson has released tracks featuring a variety of artists, but this is probably his most famous one.
You often hear it in TV commercials.
It’s a club banger with a song structure that’s textbook EDM, yet it’s firmly rooted in funk—so much so that you could call it “EDM funk.”
