[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.

Strawberry JAM, who became the inaugural grand champions on the reality show “Bakuon!

Superfly’s “Morris” portrays memories with a father and a heartfelt connection.

It’s included on the 2011 album Mind Travel.

The gentle acoustic sound and Shiho Ochi’s soft vocals resonate deeply.

The song expresses gratitude to a father who has always watched over his child, supporting their wholehearted pursuit of what they love since childhood.

Even though there were times of causing trouble, it carries the resolve to keep doing one’s best while holding close the fact that he was always there.

It’s a perfect song to listen to when leaving home to start working or to chase a dream, while feeling thankful to your father.

Their appeal lies in how they take a straight-ahead punk rock sound and, with humor, weave in lyrics laced with a uniquely feminine sting, elevating the songs into something fun and approachable.

I’m sure many people will find themselves laughing yet still relating to their tracks.

While their image leans more toward chaotic and wild, another draw is that all the members are conservatory graduates with deep musical knowledge.

If their music piques your interest, be sure to catch them live—you’ll be blown away by their intense stage performance!

It’s the ending theme of the anime Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion.

The song is by Swish!, a three-piece band from Osaka Prefecture, released in 2007 as their sixth single.

It’s a medium-tempo, bittersweet rock number with a nostalgic charm that somehow brings back childhood memories.

Many listeners will likely relate to the lyrics, which reflect on the “current self” shaped by the encounters and farewells we’ve experienced.

It’s a delicious, feel-good song filled with love for sweets.

Produced by TAK, this work was released in August 2024.

Its sound arrangement incorporates elements of electropop, while the gentle, cheerful melody warms the heart.

Another hallmark is the lyrics, which feature a wide variety of treats from traditional Japanese confections to Western sweets.

I think this song is perfect for when you’re thinking about what to give back for White Day.

If you’re a fan of ’80s and ’90s techno music, you should definitely give “Moneyman” a listen.

It’s a track included on TESTSET’s debut album, “1STST,” and was released as an advance single.

It’s a dance number that’s perfect for getting the crowd going in the club.

The lyrics are entirely in English, and knowing the content will only make it more exciting.

It’s also not too intense, so it would fit well toward the end of a party.

They were an unadorned three-piece band known for hard-hitting rock with strongly messaged songs.

They drew attention both for their uncompromising tracks and for looks reminiscent of fashion models.

They have consistently opposed revisions to Article 9 of Japan’s Constitution.

They’re also known for having Shishido Kavka serve as their third-generation drummer for four years.

Although the band has been on hiatus since 2013, they can be considered a long-lasting act.
