[Karaoke] A Collection of Songs Whose Titles Start with 'Mo'

At karaoke, people sometimes set various rules, like singing songs by the same artist or choosing based on song titles.

One fun idea is to pick a letter from the Japanese syllabary and sing “songs that start with ___.”

In this article, we’ll introduce a selection of songs that start with “mo,” so feel free to use this as a reference for your next karaoke session.

Many of these tracks feature sentimental words like “moshi” (if) and “mou” (already/no longer), so it can be nice to think about the lyrics’ meaning or imagine the story as you sing.

Be sure to check out these “mo”-starting songs by artists who’ve been active from the Showa era through Heisei and into Reiwa.

Pink WindROACH

ROACH, a loud rock band representing Okinawa.

This song expresses the feeling of being dyed by the pink-hued breeze of someone you love, and now wanting to dye them pink in return.

While the track itself is loud rock, its melody line evokes the flavor of Okinawan folk music.

04 Limited Sazabys are a rock band currently thriving at the very heart of the Japanese rock scene.

They host their own festival, YON FES, in Nagoya and actively promote themselves as a “Nagoya band,” so many people strongly associate them with Aichi Prefecture.

However, RYU-TA, who has played guitar since the band’s formation, is actually from Gifu Prefecture.

His trademark is a uniquely shaped ESP-made signature guitar.

In addition to providing backing vocals, he sometimes takes the lead vocals in place of GEN, using his distinct gravelly voice as a weapon to add even more depth to their songs.

blind faith tendencyRiei

A Vocaloid track that cranks up the tension from the opening with a noisy guitar sound and a heavy beat.

The tight guitar riff that highlights the melody will captivate any rock fan.

Its catchy melody and driving tempo pair with shadowy lyrics that carry a strong message, leaving a lasting impression and creating an addictive urge to replay it over and over.

It’s a VOCAROCK classic that boosts your energy when you just can’t get motivated.

Monster Hide-and-SeekRihwa

Released in 2013 as Rihwa’s third single.

It was her first double A-side single, featuring a striking rock sound with a strong message.

The song likens the murky aspects of human nature to a monster, expressing inner conflict through its lyrics.

Delusion DRIVERSAKANAMON

SAKANAMON – Delusion DRIVER (Mousou DRIVER)
Delusion DRIVERSAKANAMON

This is a band formed by classmates from a vocational school.

They sing about the fantasies and daydreams of boys their age.

Their songs are down-to-earth and unpretentious, expressing their feelings just as they are.

By the way, the ramen shop mentioned in the lyrics of this song is a real place in the vocalist’s hometown of Miyazaki Prefecture.

MONSTER TREESHAKALABBITS

[SHAKALABBITS] “MONSTER TREE” Full Ver. [Music Video]
MONSTER TREESHAKALABBITS

This is the sixth single by the rock band SHAKALABBITS, who gained popularity with their catchy pop-punk sound but announced the end of activities with their current lineup in 2022.

It’s a track that amps up the energy through the contrast between an aggressive, guitar-riff-driven rock sound and a strikingly cute, charismatic vocal.

The melody itself is simple, but without using a slightly gritty, rock-style vocal delivery, it’s hard to capture the original vibe—so beginner vocalists should study their vocal technique.

It’s a rock tune that’s fun for bands to play, with an ensemble that only an instrument-thrashing band can deliver, and it locks in nicely when performed together.
