"Try Again" is a 1985 single and the title track for Issei Endo's（円道一成）album that was used as the ending theme song for Fuji-TV's "Sports Tengoku"（スポーツ天国...Sports Heaven）, and considering the title and the overall arrangement, I gather that it was the ideal tune for a sports-based program. It could have been pretty good for the Olympics, too.
In comparison with the happy soul of "Yoishirete Deja Vu"（酔いしれてDeja Vu） that I wrote about back in January 2020, "Try Again" is some aural encouragement of pop/rock which whips up images of athletes getting up, dusting themselves off and heading back into the saddle again after a disappointing loss. No surprise that it starts off slowly with building anticipation before zipping down the track, and there's something about the song that reminds me of Motoharu Sano（佐野元春）.
According to the JASRAC database, "Try Again" was written by Akira Ohtsu（大津あきら）and composed by Koji Makaino（馬飼野康二）.
