One easy category to think of is songs that start with “gitaa” (ギター, “guitar”)—there are many of those.

Besides that, there are plenty of famous tracks, and you’ll probably find yourself thinking, “Oh, that one too!” This list features songs whose titles start with ぎ.

It should come in handy for karaoke, word games like shiritori, and more.

Songs with titles starting with 'Gi' (41–50)

Tightly.mosao.

Tightly. / Mosawo. [Music Video]
Tightly.mosao.

This is a song by Mosa o., depicting lovers holding each other tight—an everyday life that’s warm and gentle, overflowing with deep love and a sense of security.

It reminds us that more than special events, it’s the simple, ordinary moments of just being together that are the true treasures.

When you’re feeling down, they’re the one closest to you, supporting you and embracing even your vulnerabilities.

That gratitude toward such a person, along with the pure wish to stay together forever, resonates warmly in the listener’s heart.

Released in July 2020, the song was later included on the album “Koi no Uta.” Listening to it with someone special will surely deepen the bond between you.

Fake Chineseotonashi afu

Pseudo-Chinese / Kasane Teto × Adachi Rei – Otonashi Affu
Fake Chineseotonashi afu

Comical yet brimming with experimental spirit, this track is a work by Vocaloid producer Afu Otonashi, released in June 2025.

It’s a duet by Kasane Teto and Adachi Rei; while the singing itself is in Japanese, the lyrics appear to be in Chinese—or so it seems at first glance.

On closer look, they’re mock Chinese: a combination of Chinese-looking characters arranged to feel Chinese.

Even so, it’s a mysterious song where you somehow still understand what’s being said.

I think it’s a Vocaloid tune that anyone can enjoy!

Gion Dark Cherry BlossomsMiyama Hiroshi

This is a tragic love story set in Kyoto’s Gion! With lyrics by Shinichi Ishihara and music by Tetsuya Gen, it’s slated for release in June 2025.

The lyrics interweave the ambience of the hanamachi and a fleeting romance, painting beautiful scenes reminiscent of Taisho romanticism.

Sang tenderly by Hiroshi Miyama, his warm voice conveys the ache of unrequited love.

Highly recommended for those who want to savor the atmosphere of traditional Japan or lose themselves in thoughts of the ancient capital!

Ginza Kan-kan GirlTakamine Hideko

Hideko Takamine Ginza Kankan Musume (with lyrics)
Ginza Kan-kan GirlTakamine Hideko

Brimming with the hope and vitality of Japan’s postwar reconstruction period, it became beloved as the theme song for the film of the same name released in 1949.

The song accompanies a story in which a young woman aspiring to be a painter—played by Hideko Takamine—sings her way through bars in Ginza to earn her tuition.

Ryoichi Hattori’s light, swinging jazz melds with Takao Saeki’s cheerful lyrics, resulting in a major hit that sold 500,000 copies at the time.

It strikingly captures the strength of women who lived positively even amid the postwar turmoil, along with the lively melody that resonated through the streets of Ginza.

When sung as a recreation by older adults, it is likely to evoke memories of the postwar recovery and their youthful days, encouraging everyone to hum along together.

Gimme GimmickRADWIMPS

The track “Gimi Gimmick,” included on “RADWIMPS 4: Okazu no Gohan,” is a quintessential gem of the late 2000s Japanese rock scene, marked by a strikingly arresting guitar riff in the intro.

Despite being a short song of about two and a half minutes, its overall technically intricate ensemble really stands out.

By Noda’s standards, the vocals aren’t particularly fast, and the range is fairly average and not especially wide, so try singing it while locking into its rhythmic groove.

Yama is an unconventional musician known for blue hair and a signature mask, keeping their identity private.

Their singing voice pairs a soft tone with a striking presence, leaving a lasting impression, and their vocal prowess is recognized both in and outside Japan.

Yama’s 2024 release “Nisegao” is a standout track: over a cool, Y2K-tinged production crafted by Matt Cab, Yama’s expressive vocals and melody really shine.

The overall pitch is quite high, so if that’s challenging, consider lowering the key and aim to sing in a way that stays close to the original without sounding flat or monotone.

Ginza vibes going full-on! Bling! Bling! Bling!ken♀♂ken

It’s a wonderfully surprising track that starts with an enka-style intro and unfolds into sleek, urban pop.

The playful back-and-forth between Ken Shimura’s gags like “Buwā~” and “Aiiin,” and Naoko Ken’s uniquely husky voice is pitch-perfect.

With lyrics set in Tokyo’s bustling nightlife districts like Ginza and Roppongi, and a skit-like storyline, it portrays a romance between a new employee and a female executive.

Released as a single in December 2001, it was used as the ending theme for Fuji TV’s “Hen na Ojisan TV.” Despite its strong variety-show flavor, the catchy melodies and arrangements characteristic of Tsunku♂ truly shine.

It’s the kind of song that’s guaranteed to light up the room if you sing it at a drinking party or banquet.
