Songs with titles that start with 'de'. Perfect as hints for karaoke or shiritori!

Have you ever played “Shiritori Karaoke,” where you link songs in karaoke using the last letter of the previous song, or “Song Title Shiritori,” where you play using only the song titles?

In karaoke, it’s great when your go-to songs start feeling repetitive, and for regular shiritori, it’s perfect when you want to raise the difficulty.

You’ll end up singing songs you don’t usually pick, and sometimes you can’t think of a title, which really livens things up!

So in this article, to help you out in those moments, I’ll introduce songs with titles that start with “de.”

I hope this helps everyone have a fun time together!

Songs with titles that start with “De.” Useful for karaoke or shiritori hints! (1–10)

Disco StarNEW!aiba masaki

I tried harmonizing Aiba Masaki’s “Disco Star” by myself♪
Disco StarNEW!aiba masaki

An exhilarating track that fuses dazzling disco sounds with contemporary dance-pop.

I love the playful showman’s worldview that seems to whisk you away into an extraordinary night.

It’s Masaki Aiba’s solo song, included on the classic album THE DIGITALIAN, released in October 2014.

In concert, the lavish staging with a large group of backup dancers brought the crowd to a fever pitch.

It’s a song you’ll want to play on a weekend night to lift your mood, or when you want to step away from the everyday and feel a little thrill.

Different from his usual gentle image, this cool work exudes an adult vibe and likely stoked listeners’ excitement in the best possible way when they heard it in real time.

It’s a warm song that naturally brings a smile to your face.

I’ve gotta do the thing that seems impossible.NEW!Sambomasutā

Youth is a cycle of challenges.

This work by Sambomaster offers wholehearted support to everyone giving their all in those days.

Overflowing with a message to keep moving forward without giving up, its characteristically straightforward rock sound and powerful vocals reach many hearts.

Released as a single in February 2010, it was originally written as a song for a Nissan Motor commercial.

Later, in July 2018, it was adopted as an image song for a TBS Friday drama, and it’s been loved for a long time.

Overall, it’s a very positive cheer-up song, and since the vocal range isn’t particularly wide, even a rough delivery still sounds fitting.

Enjoy belting it out together at karaoke or events!

DJ in My LifeNEW!Shibugakitai

Released in April 1985 as a single by Shibugakitai, this song features poignant lyrics about music on the radio awakening memories of a summer romance, paired with period-typical synthesizer tones.

It became widely known as the commercial song for Honda’s scooter “DJ-1,” and was also used as the theme song for the group’s starring film, “Barrow Gang BC.” It peaked at No.

4 on the Oricon charts and became a hit, selling about 178,000 copies.

Though it is a dazzling idol pop number, its heart-wrenching melody likely resonates deeply with the generation that spent their youth in the ’80s.

Songs with titles starting with “De”. Handy for karaoke and shiritori! (11–20)

This is heaven!NEW!Boku ga mitakatta aozora

The Blue Sky I Wanted to See / “This is heaven!” (2025.12.28 BOKUAO Youth Farewell 2025)
This is heaven!NEW!Boku ga mitakatta aozora

Set to a cool beat, this is a track whose message—affirming the here and now—resonates deeply.

Sung solo by Mii na Sora member Nito Yagi, whom I’d been eager to hear, it’s included on the limited First Press Type-A edition of the 7th single “That Was a Fairy,” released in December 2025.

Rather than searching for some distant utopia, its perspective of reframing real time as “heaven” is likely to strike listeners to the core.

Created as the group’s first-ever solo vocal piece, the song departs from past youth anthems, showcasing a compelling display of individual expressiveness.

Put it on when life gets hectic and you feel like pausing for a moment—you’ll likely feel a forward-looking energy that makes you cherish your present circumstances.

A must-hear, ambitious work that drew buzz for being performed at their solo concert at the end of 2025, it’s essential listening even for non-fans.

Delos SantosNEW!yamamoto

A song by Yamamoto, a Vocaloid producer known for a unique style, released in February 2026.

It took first place in the Top 100 rankings of VocaColle Winter 2026.

The lyrics, themed around foreign import players in professional baseball, and the comical, catchy rhythm are its hallmarks.

It’s packed with that distinctive charm of being hilariously funny yet oddly cool.

It also made big waves when the creator, Yamamoto, accidentally deleted the video due to a misoperation.

Tell me your phone number!NEW!≒JOY

≒JOY (Nearly Equal Joy) / 4th single title track “Tell Me Your Phone Number!” [MV full]
Tell me your phone number!NEW!≒JOY

≒JOY, an idol group that captures the fluttering thrill of first love as you think about your crush.

This track, the title song of their 4th single releasing in February 2026, is a number that sings of the impulse of unrequited love.

With classic J-POP sounds that sparkle with romantic feelings and a chorus that suddenly turns up the heat of love, it’s a song even those who don’t usually listen to idol music can get hooked on thanks to its catchy melody.

Kanoa Amano serves as center—listen to the lyrics that wish to bravely close the distance with the one she likes.

In the music video released in January 2026, the dance performed under a shower of numbers leaves a strong impression.

If there’s someone you’re interested in, listening to this will give you the courage to take a step forward.

Dear.aNEW!chanyu i

A heartwarming number by Chanyu-i that sings of gratitude to an irreplaceable best friend and a bond that will never change.

It conveys honest feelings toward a friend—someone even more precious than a lover.

Originally released in December 2020, a band arrangement version came out in 2022 and was used as an insert song for a segment on ABEMA’s “High-Teen Bible.” It was written at the request of a best friend during the artist’s early childhood education student days, and the story of how it resonated widely on social media is lovely, isn’t it? This work reminds us anew of the importance of friends who stay by our side in both joyful and difficult times.
