Songs with titles that start with “Na.” A hint for shiritori!

Do any songs come to mind that start with “na”? There are lots of words that begin with “na” and seem likely to be used in song titles—like “natsu” (summer), “nagisa” (beach), and “namae” (name).

In this article, we’ll introduce a bunch of songs with titles that start with “na.” Feel free to use this as a reference for shiritori using only song titles, or for karaoke shiritori where you pick the next song based on the last letter of the previous title.

Let’s dive right in!

Song titles that start with “Na.” A hint for shiritori! (141–150)

A Tearful RequestChekkāzu

The Checkers were an idol group that enjoyed immense popularity among women.

Because they were aimed at a slightly younger audience, they might not be a perfect fit for women in their 60s; still, many will have heard their songs often.

Among their tracks, Namida no Request is a particularly crowd-pleasing piece.

Although it’s categorized as a ballad, it isn’t subdued; rather, it features an upbeat melody.

The vocal range is somewhat broad at mid1 F# to high D#, but since the midrange is the focus, it’s exceptionally easy to sing.

With its very wide vocal range, Nachtmusik is a song my student—who loves Mrs.

GREEN APPLE—had been practicing for a long time.

They were originally good at falsetto, so they were thrilled, saying, “It’s gotten easier to use my chest voice, and my falsetto comes out more smoothly now!” I recommend it as a practice piece, too! First, about the range: it spans G#2 to G5, which is very wide, but the average pitch of the song is around F4 and it’s sung mostly in falsetto.

The range feels wider because there’s a section in the first verse’s A-melody that’s sung an octave lower.

Since breath control is crucial for this song, relax your body so you can use diaphragmatic breathing.

If your shoulders rise when you inhale, you’ll slip into everyday chest breathing and won’t be able to take in air as you intend.

Keep your shoulders relaxed at all times! And be sure to turn the air you inhale into actual singing when you exhale.

It has a beautiful tone, so please give it a try!

Mother of NaniwaNatsuki Ayako

From mother to daughter, this is a soul-stirring anthem passed down through generations.

Released in July 1993, Ayako Natsuki’s debut sold around 200,000 copies and won the Diamond Hit Award.

A mother who, despite poverty, steadfastly raised her daughter—her powerful lessons and deep love are sung over an emotionally rich melody.

You can almost picture the protagonist savoring her mother’s words, and as you listen, you may find yourself thinking of your own family and feeling a swell of emotion.

It’s the kind of piece that suddenly makes you long for the face of a loved one waiting back home.

The piece portrays a deep bond with companions who share frustrations, encourage one another, and move forward into the future together.

COM.A, a leading figure in Japan’s breakcore scene, released his debut album “Dream And Hope” in 2001.

A torrent of noisy, rough-hewn beats collides at breakneck speed with sudden flashes of beautiful melody—that’s the defining feature of this record.

Its sound throws dreams and hope together with delusions and malice, like an utterly unpredictable roller coaster.

Addictive and widely beloved for the gap between its ferocity and pop sensibility, this is an album many find themselves hooked on.

Despite its title, the chaotic worldview offers new discoveries with every listen, letting you fully revel in a vortex of sound that seems to shake your brain directly.
