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!

If you’re looking for an energizing anime song to sing at karaoke, I recommend “Day of Bright Sunshine.” Released in 2022 by Yuki Nakashima—who’s active as a model, actress, and voice actress—it was used as the ending theme for the anime “The Strongest Sage with the Weakest Crest.” The lyrics, which depict venturing down a new path, are truly moving.

The key is to relax and sing along to its mid-tempo rhythm.

The song doesn’t require a wide vocal range, so definitely give it a try.

Its dazzling sound will surely liven up your karaoke session!

A song by Mika Nakashima that sings of feelings for a beloved person who has been lost.

The lyrics, woven with her gentle, translucent voice, are filled with deep love for someone she can never meet again and the memories they shared.

Released in April 2011, it also drew attention as the theme song for the film “Rebirth” (Youkame no Semi).

After about half a year of hiatus, this track became a new starting point for Nakashima.

When you want to face the sorrow of losing someone dear, try listening while looking up at the sky.

It will surely stay close to your heart.

Yuji Nakada’s classic “Deeper.” Its laid-back, languid beat and jazzy chords create a stylish, sexy vibe.

The track was included on his 2017 album “thickness.” The music video, rendered in watercolor-style animation, is also striking.

The tones of analog synths and muted trumpet help cultivate a calm atmosphere.

The lyrics, which depict a mature relationship between a man and a woman, exude a sultry allure.

In a major climactic scene, a storm causes the sea level to rise and the town to be submerged—at which point, astonishingly, aquatic creatures long extinct make an appearance.

The title of this piece, “Diphnolinx,” is also the name of an ancient organism known from fossils.

Despite the tension of the scene, the music’s relaxed tempo creates a distinctive atmosphere.

“Rendezvous on a Deck Brush” is a track included in the album ‘Kiki’s Delivery Service: Soundtrack Music Collection.’ It appears to be based on the Image Album piece ‘The World Is So Big.’ Its gentle tempo and memorable melody make you want to play it on the piano at least once.

Speaking of deck brushes, there’s that scene in the film where Kiki, having lost her powers and unable to fly, borrows a deck brush to take to the air and save Tombo!

It begins gently yet majestically, and a beautiful melody that colors the story flows in.

Simply titled “Encounter,” it accelerates the drama of the narrative.

This melody is the one used frequently throughout Princess Mononoke’s score—the theme of “The Mononoke Alone”—and it is an indispensable, key, and beautiful motif when discussing the music of Princess Mononoke.

Kusuo’s “dear grandma” is a heartwarming ballad that expresses deep love and gratitude for his grandmother.

It weaves childhood memories and the regrets that came with growing up into a gentle melody.

Released in 2007, the song is included on Kusuo’s second mini-album and drew attention for featuring hiroko from mihimaru GT.

It’s a perfect track for reflecting on memories with elderly loved ones or conveying appreciation to someone important.

A moving song that prompts us to reconsider the bonds of family and the preciousness of life.
