Songs with titles that start with “Gu.” Great for your karaoke selection!

Have you ever played shiritori using song titles—connecting the last letter of a song title to choose the next one—in a shiritori karaoke game? Unlike regular shiritori, it’s surprisingly hard to come up with song titles, which actually makes it really fun.

To help in those moments, this article will introduce songs whose titles start with “gu.” We’ve gathered a variety of tracks across genders and genres, so feel free to use this as a reference for shiritori or picking songs for karaoke.

You can hear a side of her singing that’s a bit different from the past.

The freshness of her singing without playing guitar, paired with her unchanged voice, makes it a song that feels distinctly her—evoking a certain nostalgia even for those listening again after a while.

Her unique turns of phrase are still alive, creating an atmosphere that draws you into the charm of the song.

Grandfather’s clockHirai Ken

It’s a popular American song known in Japan by the title “Ojii-san no Tokei” (Grandfather’s Clock).

In 2002, to mark the 40th anniversary of NHK introducing it to Japan, Ken Hirai released a cover that reached No.

It’s a song about how your own place is the best.

More than any thrill or shock, I love the place where I feel at ease, and that’s where I want to be—that’s how I feel.

I like the chorus’s repeating “goo” rhythm; it’s cute.

It’s by no means a flashy song, but it’s one that can bring a gentle smile.

This is a track from the album “Let’s Meet Last Night.” During a wedding for a close friend from our school days, she and he meet again.

Though they’re now walking their own separate paths, the song poppily expresses the fun memories from back then and how wonderful the group was.

Swoooosh—pop!Yokoyama Daisuke / Mitani Takumi

From the Monthly Song of October 2014, with lyrics by Saito Inko and music by Hiroshi Hashimoto.

The theme is, surprisingly, “Elevator.” The song expresses the strong, determined feelings of an elevator that tirelessly moves up and down all day long.

In the music video, the highlight is four people in costumes performing a captivating robot dance.
