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 starting with “de.” Handy for karaoke or shiritori! (211–220)

The song “DE’DEVIL DANCER” is packed with that festive KEYTALK vibe.

A big part of that festival feel surely comes from the rhythm section: a bassline tearing it up with octave playing, a four-on-the-floor dance beat, and when you weave it all together with 16th-note hi-hats, any live house is guaranteed to go wild.

Then they nail the rhythm changes, and with the gloriously unrestrained guitar and the sexy vocals, it’s a guitar-rock banger brimming with danceable appeal!

It’s a pop dance track that incorporates chiptune sounds.

With “Vocaloid” itself as the protagonist, the story-like composition really makes you think.

This might be a good chance to dive into works by overseas Vocaloid producers—you might discover a mesmerizing low-end unlike anything you’ve heard before!

The song “Dune,” which shares its title with their indie debut album, was born in the same year the band was formed.

Its driving beat and spacious ensemble feel both light and brimming with melancholy.

As an early track, it’s a number that any L’Arc~en~Ciel fan should definitely add to their karaoke repertoire.
