[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.

No more tears are neededSuzuki Masayuki

Sex appeal and cool sophistication are closely related.

That’s why I recommend “Mou Namida wa Iranai” (“No More Tears”).

It’s a hit by Masayuki Suzuki that became a nationwide sensation in the 1990s.

The biggest draw of this song is its expansive vocal line.

The smooth vocal parts, firmly rooted in Black music, exude an adult allure.

While the melody itself isn’t particularly difficult, the singer’s vocal timbre is crucial.

If you can pull it off, you’ll definitely leave a strong impression of refined coolness.

Just when the airy sound rushes by at high speed, it shifts into a jazzy development—you never get tired of listening.

This work, which showcases Hakushi Hasegawa’s distinctive musical originality, was released in March 2024.

Created in collaboration with a voice-synthesis software that makes full use of AI technologies, it centers on the theme of the opposition between the “authentic” and the “fake.” The lyrics stand out for leading listeners from everyday trifles into deep realms of imagination, emphasizing the importance of leaving things as they are and instead letting your imagination wander.

With Hakushi Hasegawa’s songs, no matter how much I get hooked, it’s never enough…

Singer-songwriter Hana Sekitori first drew attention with her acoustic guitar-and-vocal performances.

Her 2017 release “Moshimo Boku ni” (“If I Had”) is a song about what kind of message she would give if she had a child.

Over a warm, band-driven sound, the lyrics unfold in conversational phrases, sharing what she hopes will be cherished amid the many twists and turns of life.
