Songs with titles that start with “Ha.” Lots that evoke the seasons!
Have you heard of karaoke shiritori, where you link the last letter of each song title to the next, or the version where you play using only song titles? The key is how many song titles you can remember and how many different songs you can sing, and it gets really exciting when music lovers play together.
Still, there are times when you just can’t come up with a song title… So in this article, I’ll introduce songs that start with “Ha” to help you out when you get stuck on that syllable! There are lots of seasonally themed songs like “Haru” (spring), “Hanabi” (fireworks), and “Hana” (flower), so please take a look.

Songs with titles starting with 'Ha'. Lots that feel seasonal! (301–310)
Before spring comesGōruden Bonbā
Known as an air band, Golden Bomber nonetheless offers tender companionship to feelings of parting through the poignant worldview crafted by Sho Kiryuin.
Originally produced in 2009 as part of the soundtrack for the film “The Summer Left Unshaved,” this song was later chosen as the theme for the 2012 movie “Until Death Divides Two People… Chapter Two: ‘Nananka (Pumpkin Flower).’” Set to a ballad woven from piano and guitar tones, it carefully expresses lingering attachment and gratitude on the cusp of spring.
The emotions of thinking of someone even as the sense of an approaching farewell grows will resonate with those facing graduation or a turning point.
It’s a song to listen to quietly when you want to savor memories with someone dear.
hazy spring sky (literally: “flower-clouded” sky; overcast sky during cherry blossom season)Sato Chiaki
Chiahi Sato, who served as the vocalist for the alternative rock band Kinoko Teikoku.
Released in April 2023, this track is an emotional pop tune that paints the scene of memories suddenly resurfacing beneath a slightly overcast spring sky.
Rather than forcibly shaking off the lingering pull of the past, its lyrics gently accept and let go—like washing away the murkiness in one’s heart.
The song is also included on the later-released album “BUTTERFLY EFFECT.” It’s a number that works like nourishment for the soul, perfect for those times when you’re worn out—letting you bask in a sentimental mood while still facing forward, giving you a little push toward tomorrow.

Chilly Spring InnMizumori Kaori
This is an enka song performed by Kaori Mizumori, known as the Queen of Local Songs, set in the Mimasaka region of Okayama Prefecture.
The lyrics weave in proper place names such as Okayama, Mimasaka, and the Yoshino River, overlaying the scenery of Yunogo Onsen with the emotions of parting.
Titled with the seasonal word hanabie, which refers to a chill in the air during spring, the lyrics strikingly contrast the warmth of the hot springs with the coldness of lingering attachment.
It was released in October 2011 as a track on the album Kayō Kikō X: Shōnai Heiya Kaze no Naka.
It’s a recommended song for those who want to feel the landscapes of Okayama and the atmosphere of its hot spring towns, or who wish to dwell on a bittersweet tale of farewell.
HONEYL’Arc〜en〜Ciel
When it comes to artists that men in their 40s often listened to, doesn’t L’Arc~en~Ciel come to mind? This time, I’d like to introduce “HONEY.” One of my students practiced this song too.
L’Arc~en~Ciel’s vocal range is surprisingly on the lower side.
I think it’s easy to sing for people with a typical male range plus the ability to use falsetto.
The chorus is very clear and uplifting, so it’s easy to add dynamics, and rock fans will love it! On the flip side, the key might be how to keep the low notes from getting muffled.
If you’re not used to a certain range, both low and high notes can require a lot of breath.
When singing low notes, imagine releasing a slow, steady mass of air—your body will resonate more easily and you’ll hear your own voice better.
And above all, the groove matters! It also makes it easier to project your voice, so sing with energy and get into the groove!
Peppermint candyKinKi Kids
Released in August 2003, this is KinKi Kids’ 18th single.
Chosen as the theme song for the TBS drama “Moto Kare” starring Tsuyoshi Domoto, it’s a gem of a love ballad where poetic lyrics by Takashi Matsumoto beautifully meld with the clear, luminous melodies crafted by Nordic composers.
While apologizing for past mistakes, the lyrics quietly sing of unwavering love for one’s destined partner, using the fragile motif of a candy to express both the sweetness and the ache of romance.
The single topped the Oricon weekly chart, sold a cumulative 388,000 copies, and ranked 13th on the year-end chart.
It’s a classic that presents a mature, romantic world, highlighted by the duo’s perfectly blended harmonies.
We’ve been in the highlights all along.SCANDAL
Born at the milestone of the band’s 17th year, this track—written and composed by MAMI—is a rock number with profound meaning that reexamines the bond between the band and their fans.
The lyrics carry a resolve to shoulder both the past and the future, along with a wish that the moments spent with listeners will be the highlights of life.
Riding on a driving, dynamic band ensemble, the song powerfully conveys gratitude for everything so far and a determination to look ahead.
Released as a single in October 2023, it was first performed at the band’s 17th-anniversary event held at Namba Hatch in Osaka in August of the same year.
It’s a number that longtime supporters and those discovering SCANDAL for the first time alike should definitely hear.
H.A.N.A.B.I ~The Summer You Were There~ZONE
A summer rock number that blends a driving sense of speed with a poignant ache, as if awakening the faint stirrings of first love slumbering deep in the heart.
The Hokkaido-born girls’ band ZONE released it in 2003 as their 10th major-label single.
Its lyrics, which capture fleeting yet cherished moments of love against summer scenes—fireworks, sunsets, and shrine stone steps—resonate no matter how old you are.
Issued as a strictly limited-edition run of 100,000 copies with six tracks, including solo arrangements for each member, it reached No.
3 on the Oricon weekly chart and was certified Gold.
Though it had no tie-ins, it became a classic on the strength of the song alone, winning over many listeners’ hearts.
It’s a track you’ll want to play when that sudden end-of-summer loneliness hits, or when you feel like remembering who you were back then.
