Songs whose titles start with “Do” – Solo Karaoke / Song-Title Shiritori

There are lots of words that start with “do,” like “Don’t,” “Dream,” “doko” (where), and “drama.” In particular, there are many English words, and quite a few are used in song titles.

In this article, I’ll be introducing a bunch of songs with titles that start with “do”! I hope it’ll be useful as hints for “song-title shiritori” or “shiritori karaoke,” or for making playlists of “songs that start with ___.”

If you like girly songs, be sure to check out “Dramatically in Love” as well.

This track was released by Hikari Kodama, who is active as both a singer-songwriter and a voice actress.

It serves as the opening theme for Season 2 of the anime Girlfriend, Girlfriend.

The chorus, which repeats the title phrase and sings about the excitement of romance, leaves a strong impression.

The way the song keeps rhyming with the title phrase also hits hard and sticks in your ears.

Don’t miss the music video, too, with its charming use of Cheki instant photos.

The arrangement grows more grand as the song progresses, expressing Moana’s inner feelings and strong will.

Everyone surely wants their child to live strongly and steadfastly.

Please try to channel those feelings into this song.

DREAMING GIRLYamashita Tatsuro

NHK연속 TV소설 해바라기 OP 풀버전 – Dreaming Girl (1996)
DREAMING GIRLYamashita Tatsuro

DREAMING GIRL, the 29th single, was written as the theme song for the NHK morning drama series Himawari.

It’s a delightful number where passionate lyrics contrast with a refreshingly crisp ensemble.

While the leaps and dynamics in the chorus can be challenging, the melody flows at a relaxed pace and the range isn’t too wide, so it’s easy to sing if you set the key to suit your voice.

If you’re confident with high notes, definitely try it in the original key—an emotional track worth the challenge.

Donut SongYamashita Tatsuro

This is a track included on the 1998 album “COZY,” written by Tatsuro Yamashita specifically for a Mister Donut commercial.

The reason I’m introducing this song now as one you may feel you’ve heard somewhere is that Masaki Suda covered it in a Mister Donut commercial in 2023.

The chorus has an extremely addictive melody that’s striking, and the song has a mysterious charm that makes you feel happy as you listen.

An ambitious work that brought a fresh breeze to Japan’s rock scene.

Released in December 1978 on Sho Yamamoto’s debut album “ROMANTIC VIOLENCE,” this track brilliantly captures an urban sense of speed and liberation.

Its distinctive sound—fusing blues rock and pop rock—sent shockwaves through the music scene of the time.

Ake Inoue’s refined arrangement also shines.

Perfect for a nighttime drive or when you want to escape the everyday.

Alongside Yamamoto’s powerful vocals, why not feel the soul’s cry in pursuit of freedom?

The exquisite blend of rap and vocals—one of Yamazaru’s trademarks—gives listeners a supportive push.

It’s a recommended track for those who want to pursue their dreams while staying true to themselves.

Heart-Pounding ♥ Birthday PartyIwai Sayuri

Heartbeat-Throbbing Birthday Party / Sayuri Iwai
Heart-Pounding ♥ Birthday PartyIwai Sayuri

Iwai Sayuri’s second single, released in 1983 (Showa 58).

It features a classic idol-pop style with a bright, catchy melody.

The lyrics and tune, which capture the excitement and flutter of birthdays, resonated with young people at the time.

Notably, the lyrics make the most of Iwai’s baby-faced look and youthful, innocent vocal tone—she debuted at 14 as the younger sister figure in the “Gin Gae family.” As a song that symbolizes 1980s idol culture, it may be one reason it’s still loved today.

A recommended track for anyone wanting to relive their youth.
