Songs with titles that start with “bo.” [Boku (I), boy, adventure, etc.]

There are times when you want to find “songs that start with a certain hiragana,” like for “shiritori karaoke,” where you link songs together like the word game shiritori, “song-title shiritori,” where you restrict yourself to track titles, or even when making a playlist themed around the 50 Japanese syllables.

In this article, we’ll focus on songs that start with “bo” (ぼ) and introduce some selections!

You probably don’t usually search for music by the first hiragana of the title, but that’s exactly why it can lead you to songs you wouldn’t normally come across.

Be sure to check out this article and see if you can discover a new favorite track.

This song brilliantly portrays the inner conflicts and loneliness within the human heart.

Vaundy projected his own experiences into this work, released in February 2020.

It is included on the album “strobo.” The protagonist’s emotions—tossed about by parental expectations and a lover’s words—are expressed through delicate lyrics and melody.

The fusion of expansive musicality and profound lyrics makes it a track that deeply moves many listeners.

It is recommended for those who feel lost in life or want to sort out their feelings.

Be sure to listen to this masterpiece that fully showcases Vaundy’s talent.

Their 19th single, “Wasuremono,” released in November 2022, drew attention after being featured in a McDonald’s TV commercial.

The lyrics, which trace memories one by one, create a nostalgic atmosphere that tugs at the heartstrings.

The dramatic arrangement, highlighted by strings, is also striking.

The chorus stays within a modest vocal range, making it fairly approachable to attempt.

It’s best to aim for a warm vocal tone that matches the song’s ambience.

The hot topic in dream-come-true luxury collaborations is “BORDER.” It’s a song written by the musical artist WurtS as a tie-in for the manga SAKAMOTO DAYS.

The collaboration reportedly came about after exchanges on social media between WurtS and the manga’s author, Yuto Suzuki.

The song, with a laid-back vibe, sings about the manga’s world and the protagonist’s state of mind.

The lyrics are crafted so that not only those familiar with the work, but also those who aren’t, can feel the story’s themes.

The insert song VOICE, sung by YURI who played Takami Kara in the live-action Kiki’s Delivery Service.

In the film, Takami Kara, who hasn’t been able to speak since her sister’s death, is inspired by Kiki’s courage as she flies through the storm and regains the strength to sing, raising her voice once more.

It’s a beautiful song that perfectly matches a moving scene—many of you may already know it.

While it’s not a Studio Ghibli production, it’s a highly recommended track!

Die, idiot.Yokai Jaki

Yokai Jaki is a rapper from Osaka who mainly works on the music platform SoundCloud, where you can listen to and upload music.

His track “Boke Shine,” released on June 1, 2020, makes a strong impact with lyrics composed solely of the phrase in the title.

The structure, which relentlessly drives forward with aggressive shouts from start to finish, is simple yet conveys an intense anger.

The downer-style track also exudes madness, giving the song a decadent, oppressive atmosphere.

If you’re looking for a summer tune that’ll get you hyped, I recommend “My Summer Vacation,” a collaboration between ZEN-LA-ROCK and Bobby Bellwood.

As the title suggests, the lyrics all revolve around summer vacation, so just listening to it will definitely make you feel the summer vibes.

Even if you’ve already graduated from school, it’ll probably bring back memories of your own summer breaks.

Boy Fearless[Alexandros]

Created by [Alexandros], this work was released digitally in September 2024 as the inspiration song for the film “Cloud.” Mirroring the movie, it portrays a suspense-thriller world that reveals the fear lurking in everyday life, expressed through an up-tempo, edgy sound.

Repeated phrases—like the voice speaking inside one’s head and claims of feeling no fear—depict the protagonist’s inner conflict.

You can sense the strength to uphold one’s convictions while confronting society’s darkness and malice.

Its tension-filled progression will draw you in before you know it.

It’s recommended not only for fans of suspense films, but also for anyone seeking a powerful, resonant message.
