Song titles that start with “Na.” A hint for shiritori! (141–150)
long hairFOMARE
A melodic hardcore band that took flight from Takasaki City in Gunma Prefecture to the entire country.
Since their formation in 2014, they have steadily built their career, winning the runner-up prize at FM Gunma’s band contest “ROCKERS2015” in November 2015.
They went on to top the Oricon Indie Albums Chart with their album “FORCE,” and made their major-label debut in November 2020.
Their appeal lies in a three-piece lineup’s exhilarating, fast-paced sound, powerful vocals, and emotionally resonant Japanese lyrics, with a string of hit signature songs to their name.
With powerful musicianship and passionate live performances, they are a formidable band that captivates rock fans and doesn’t let go.
numbersekiri
This track packs a huge punch with its punkish sound and razor-sharp lyrics.
Their debut EP, “Shigella,” was released independently in 1985, and the raw sound distills the primal energy of the members, who were still in high school at the time.
It feels like the atmosphere and vibe of Osaka back then have been sealed into it as-is.
It’s rock that hits you square in the skull—a lasting scar on the Japanese band scene.
Life is like a Naniwa-bushi (a melodramatic ballad).Hosokawa Takashi
After training under Michiya Mihashi, Takashi Hosokawa showed an explosive improvement in his vocal ability.
Even after his vocals improved, he continued to release many tracks that emphasize catchiness.
Among them, Naniwabushi Dayo Jinsei wa is one of his most singable songs.
Aside from the kobushi at the end of the chorus, the song features only minimal melismatic turns that mostly move by a single note, and despite a BPM of 128, there are no rapid-fire sections, resulting in an overall low level of difficulty.
The range is fairly wide, so be sure to find the key that suits you before singing.
I couldn’t fully become it.kyiku
This piece portrays the painfully honest cries of a heart struggling to become its ideal self.
Created by Vocaloid producer Kyiku and released in August 2025, it presents a dim, haunting world centered on the theme of “failed eclosion,” leaving a deep impression.
As the creator says they “wrote as honestly as possible,” the lyrics lay bare a soliloquy-like wavering of emotion, and the trembling sound design draws listeners into deep introspection.
On nights when you’re sunk in a helplessness you can’t shake, when you want to immerse yourself in music alone, this work is sure to stay close to you.
Night TheaterHump Back
This is an outstanding rock ballad by Hump Back that portrays the loneliness brought by the night’s silence and the impatience of not quite being an adult.
The straightforward words and emotional vocals of singer-guitarist Momoko Hayashi seem to speak for those hazy, conflicted feelings unique to our youth.
The single containing this track, Dear Boy, released in June 2018, was also chosen as the ending theme for Nippon TV’s Buzz Rhythm 02, drawing attention at the time.
The down-to-earth lyrics, sung over a bittersweet, medium-tempo melody, gently sink into the listener’s heart.
On nights when everything feels like it’s going wrong and you’re feeling down, listening to this song might give you a quiet nudge to try just a little bit harder.
Nerd and AngelMEGA SHINNOSUKE
A nerdy protagonist lacking self-confidence throws his whole heart into his feelings for the person he likes, who shines like an angel—set to a propulsive, high-velocity folk-rock sound.
Released in July 2025 by multi-artist Mega Shinnosuke, the track was selected as the official theme song for Kyushu’s largest free live event, MUSIC CITY TENJIN 2025.
Behind the quirky line “I want to love you at a genetic level” lies a pure, awkward form of affection that’s irresistibly heart-fluttering.
If you’ve been unable to confess your feelings to your crush, this song just might give you the courage you need.
Night riderTaiga Kyomoto(SixTONES)
An urban track that pairs a cool, night-city rush of sound with Taiga Kyomoto’s delicate vocals.
His breath-infused singing seems to convey both the anxiety of nearly losing sight of your goal and the strong will to keep moving forward.
You can picture the protagonist pressing through the darkness in search of light, even while carrying loneliness.
The song is included on SixTONES’ single “Stargaze,” to be released in September 2025.
It’s perfect for a late-night drive with a glittering cityscape.
