[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.

Summer is ending soon.Hamabata Youhei

Yohei Hamahata is a singer-songwriter who debuted in 2019.

He made his debut from Office Augusta, home to artists like Masayoshi Yamazaki, Chitose Hajime, and Sukima Switch.

Originally, he balanced a job while making music, but in 2013 he resigned to focus entirely on his musical career, eventually making his major-label debut.

He is known for his clear enunciation and beautiful, slightly high-pitched voice.

For his debut songs, Yohito Teraoka—the bassist of JUN SKY WALKER(S)—handled the composition, and the nostalgic, moving numbers are wonderfully pleasing.

This song, sung by singer-songwriter Shota Shimizu, tells the story of a one-sided love set in summer.

As the title “More than friends” suggests, the boy in the lyrics has fallen for a girl who’s his friend.

They’re very close and naturally spend a lot of time together, but he’s the only one who’s aware of her as the opposite sex.

That’s why being together makes his chest ache, and even if he wants to confess his feelings, he doesn’t think he can express them well.

It’s a heartbreakingly helpless kind of love that really hits home.

I imagine quite a few people struggled with something similar back in their school days.

Morning SunKiyoshi Ryujin

Many people find themselves wanting to hear the sound of an acoustic guitar in the morning, don’t they? For you, I recommend Ryujin Kiyoshi’s “Morning Sun.” It starts in a simple singer-songwriter style with just acoustic guitar and vocals in the intro, but more instruments gradually come in toward the end.

It builds smoothly from a quiet beginning, making it a perfect song to lift your mood in the morning.

Another BirthdaySeiren

Seiren, who wields a crystalline voice as her weapon, is making waves.

Her debut single is “Another Birthday.” It was created based on the painful experiences she went through as a child.

Set to an easygoing, city pop–style sound, the song gives voice to a child’s hope for the future.

Its faintly nostalgic atmosphere matches the theme of looking back on early childhood.

Why not listen to this track and let your mind wander to your own early years? And as you do, I’d love for you to reflect on the meaning behind the title as well.

Even though spring is almost hereKumaki Anri

Anri Kumaki, who has been active in a wide range of projects including composing theme songs for TV dramas, released “Mousugu Haru nanoni” as the first installment of her 12-month consecutive digital release plan.

The song depicts students facing graduation as they overcome their anxieties and feelings of loneliness.

It is characterized by the way it layers gentle spring scenery with the students’ inner emotions.

The more you listen, the more depth you’ll find in the lyrics.

Another recommendation point is that the vocal range is relatively narrow, making it easy to sing.

This is a popular track by Katayama Breakers & The ☆ Rokenroll Party, stalwarts of Kyoto’s indie rock scene.

The music video is also outstanding, letting you revel in the allure of handsome, suit-clad men in their forties sporting an old-fashioned style.

A Letter Without WordsTanaka Teruhisa

Teruhisa Tanaka continues to captivate many with melodies that resonate in the heart and lyrics rich in emotion.

Released last August, this work is a heartfelt ballad written and composed by Ryuzo Kimura.

It delicately portrays feelings too deep for words, entrusted to a “letter without letters.” The lyrics, which use photographs to inspire smiles and envision a future for a loved one, are sure to deeply move listeners.

The coupling track includes a cover of a 1970s tokusatsu TV drama theme song composed by his late father, Tsutomu Mizukami.

It’s a perfect song for those who want to bask in nostalgia or pour their feelings for someone special into song.
