Songs with titles that start with “Go”

Are there any songs that come to mind when you’re asked for titles that start with “go” (ご)? Titles that begin with a voiced consonant can be hard to recall, but in fact there are plenty of song titles that start with the numeral “5,” or with words like “GO,” “gozen” (morning/a.m.), “gogo” (afternoon/p.m.), or “gomen” (sorry)—all of which make for easy-to-use song titles.

In this article, we’ll introduce songs whose titles start with “go” (ご).

There are many songs with titles that include words like “gozen” and “gogo,” and we’ll highlight hits and well-known tracks among them.

Let’s get started!

Songs with titles starting with “Go” (421–430)

Plunder: The Temptation of ImmortalityTerashima Tamiya

This one conveys a sense of urgency, as if something is closing in.

In Tales from Earthsea, it depicts how the villain Cob keeps seeking immortality and becomes ensnared by it.

The strings lay down a fine, delicate rhythm, and the percussion that cuts in partway through is really cool.

If you listen while imagining the scene in the film, you’re sure to enjoy it even more!

The Burdock SongKojima Yoshio

Isn’t a song themed around burdock root interesting all by itself? It’s a piece by Yoshio Kojima, and if you listen closely, it even packs in nutrition facts and history—I’m genuinely impressed.

Released in July 2016, this track is included on the album Yoshio no Uta.

While it’s aimed at children, adults might find themselves humming along too.

It seems great for food education as well.

It’s such an addictive tune that every time you see burdock, you’ll want to sing, “Go! Go! Go!”

How about people who usually listen to pop or rock trying some enka once in a while? For enka that’s perfect for May, I highly recommend Asahi Kobayashi’s “Samidare Waltz.” Songs that have been sung for many years are truly wonderful, and his vocal prowess is outstanding.

The electric guitar phrases that drop in like call-and-response lines are irresistibly bluesy and cool, aren’t they?

A cover of a Western song composed for the film The Godfather that became globally popular.

In Japan, Kiyohiko Ozaki covered it and it gained popularity.

It’s a melancholy masterpiece in which Ozaki’s vocals perfectly match the weighty melody and composition.

Sorry, JulietYamashita Tomohisa

“Gomen ne Juliet” is a solo number by Tomohisa Yamashita from his time in NEWS.

It is included on NEWS’s 2007 album “pacific.” Yamashita himself wrote the lyrics and composed the music.

It’s a sad love song modeled after Romeo and Juliet.

Fans were reportedly surprised by this song—despite his handsome looks that make it seem like he’d never have trouble with women, he wrote such a dark love song!

Sorry, TokyoIwa Misaki

Misaki Iwasa “Gomen ne, Tokyo” released on January 6, 2016
Sorry, TokyoIwa Misaki

Misia Iwasa’s song, which portrays a bittersweet romance set in the city of Tokyo, is a captivating track that fuses elements of enka and pop.

While accepting a breakup with a lover amid the hustle and bustle of the metropolis, the lingering feelings that remain are richly expressed through her clear, translucent vocals.

Released in January 2016 as her fifth single, the song topped the Oricon Weekly Enka/Kayō singles chart, solidifying Iwasa’s status as an enka singer.

Breathing new life into the enka genre, this work is a masterpiece that even newcomers to enka should try singing at karaoke!

Sorry, darling.Iwasaki Yoshimi

Yoshimi Iwasaki – Sorry, Darling (with lyrics)
Sorry, darling.Iwasaki Yoshimi

It’s come full circle and connects with today’s city pop boom, so I can’t help but hope young people now will give it a listen.

The slightly dance-like parts are plenty upbeat and easy to enjoy.

The song portrays a cute woman, but it gives a relatively light impression, and I even get the sense that the “darling” isn’t all that angry to begin with.
