Songs that start with “Be.” Great for shiritori, karaoke, and playlists! (271–280)
Bedtime StoryNishino Kana
This is Kana Nishino’s 34th single, released in September 2018.
After releasing this work, she went on hiatus, making this the last single before her break.
In terms of vocal melody, even when you listen through the whole song, there aren’t many parts that are particularly hard to sing.
To make it sound good at karaoke, I think the key point is how you cut off the notes at the end of each phrase.
Keep that in mind when you study the original track.
Also, note that the chorus modulates, so pay attention there as well.
Parting CitySuzuki Masayuki
The song “Wakare no Machi,” sung by Masayuki Suzuki, is a sophisticated, urbane track whose saxophone tone further enhances its allure.
It’s a captivating number that exudes the charm of a refined adult when sung at karaoke.
Released in September 1989 as Suzuki’s seventh single, the song was written and composed by singer-songwriter Kazumasa Oda.
BABYBABYichou BOYZ
Here lies one of Ging Nang BOYZ’s signature songs.
Fierce instrumentation and lyrics that squeeze your heart—it’s a track where the word “youth” fits perfectly.
Released in 2005, it’s included on the album “Kimi to Boku no Daisanji Sekai Taisen-teki Ren’ai Kakumei” (“Our Third World War–Style Love Revolution”).
It expresses powerful feelings for a loved one and a longing for eternity.
It paints city illuminations and a partner with an angelic smile as an illusion, singing of the beauty and fragility of love.
Its blisteringly hot live performances make it a classic you’ll want to emulate.
not particularlySekitori Hana
“Betsuni” is a cute, pop-tinged song about a touch of jealousy.
It was released in 2016 as the B-side to the single “Kimi no Sumu Machi.” Thanks to appearances on TV programs sparked by “Gyoretsu no Dekiru Soudansho,” the song often led to her being introduced as the “Queen of Spite Songs,” garnering plenty of buzz.
Centered on the theme of couples flirting at stations and around town, it portrays the feeling of trying to look away but still getting curious—and jealous.
Depending on how over-the-top the flirting is, it can even be irritating.
These sentiments are delivered with a touch of comedy, making the song surprisingly uplifting.

Vega and AltairOnda Masanori
Gently singing of feelings for someone far away, like stars shining in the night sky.
Masanori Onda’s “Vega and Altair,” released in June 2024, first soothes with its soft, band-driven sound.
The lyrics, inspired by Orihime and Hikoboshi and the Tanabata festival, are imbued with sorrow and lingering attachment to a former lover, tightening the chest as they harmonize with the delicate melody.
It may resonate even more when you listen to it as you’re trying to move on from a heartbreak.
veilSuda Keina
Keina Suda, who rose to popularity on the internet as the Vocaloid producer Balloon, released “veil” in 2019, and it’s become a big hit at karaoke.
The song has a relatively high key for a male vocalist, so I think it sounds really cool when someone confident in their high notes sings it.
If you can also stay mindful of the rhythm while singing, it should come across as skillful.
Better Dayz feat. aMEI Chang Hui-meigandō MJ116
