[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.

It was released in 2018 as their third digital single.

The lyrics sing of love, of an overflowing feeling of “I love you.” Many women might think, “I wish my partner would say something like this to me.” The beautiful tone of the piano gently seeps into the depths of the heart, and the upbeat rhythm is wonderful as well.

The lyrics, which depict lingering feelings for someone after a breakup, are all the more heartrending when set against the cold scenery of winter.

The melody is easy to sing at karaoke, but be aware that the overall key is on the higher side.

Moramora Mambo is one of the popular songs from NHK’s Okaasan to Issho.

It livelily sings about a sunfish drifting lazily and gently through the sea, set to a rhythmic mambo beat.

The title’s “Moramora” is the sunfish’s scientific name, and the phrase moramora~ appears repeatedly throughout the song.

TWICE “MORE & MORE” M/V
MORE & MORESana

TWICE are pioneers of global girl groups, active worldwide with a focus on Japan and South Korea.

Since their breakthrough, they’ve captivated fans with catchy yet distinctive songs and increasingly sophisticated musicality.

Sana, who serves as a sub-vocalist, is from Tennoji.

While TWICE are known for many unique choreographies—such as their mega-hit TT—the first major breakthrough came when Sana’s cute “Shy Shy Shy” pose in her part of CHEER UP became a social phenomenon.

Despite speaking Korean so fluently that even Koreans are impressed, she also has an endearingly natural side.

With her charismatic looks and adorable charm, she’s one of the most popular members in Korea.

Mona Lisa’s SmileZa Taigāsu

This was the third single by the Japanese Group Sounds band The Tigers, released in August 1967 (Showa 42).

At the time of the song’s release, today’s Oricon chart didn’t yet exist, but it reportedly reached No.

1 in the magazine Young Music (published by Shueisha).

Julie (Kenji Sawada)’s beautifully resonant, wistfully moving vocals over the gorgeous, bittersweet melody are truly striking.

Compared with modern songs, music from that era is notably short in length; this track also runs just under three minutes, yet it still presents a clear beginning, development, twist, and conclusion, and vividly conveys the song’s world and imagery.

Another classic from the Showa era! Please enjoy!

Delusional DiaryShido

The four-member visual kei rock band SID is known for vocalist Mao’s sexy, richly resonant voice.

“Mousou Nikki” is included on SID’s full-length indie-era album Renai (written with the characters for “pity” and “sorrow”).

The song portrays the obsessive love of a woman whose feelings for the other person are too intense.

Her clingy behavior, stalking morning and night, is terrifying in its suffocating persistence.

What’s more, the fact that the other person doesn’t even know she exists—making it a completely one-sided case of stalking—adds an extra layer of fear.
