Songs with titles starting with “No” (Perfect for karaoke and shiritori!)

You probably can’t immediately think of many song titles that start with “no,” can you?

There are relatively many words you don’t often hear in everyday life, and lots of them have English titles.

Things like “Nobody…,” “Note,” “NOT…,” and so on.

There are also memorable masterpiece tracks that symbolize the artists themselves.

I’ve put together a list of song titles that might be useful when you want to look something up—just a bit…!

Feel free to use it not only when you’re curious about what songs start with “no,” but also as a prompt for shiritori word games or when choosing songs at karaoke.

Songs with titles starting with “No” [Great for karaoke and shiritori too!] (361–370)

The Moment of Noble RedKunikyo Sayuri

This is the third solo single by Sayuri Kokusho, member No.

8 of Onyanko Club.

Onyanko Club was like today’s Nogizaka46 or AKB48, and of course this song also reached No.

It hit No. 1 on the Oricon chart! In the title “Noble Red no Toki,” the character for “shunkan” (瞬間) is read as “toki.” I remember Sayuri laughing on the show when Tunnels’ Ishibashi teased her, saying, “What does ‘noble’ even mean?!” She was so cute.

By the way, “Noble Red” in this song, I think, evokes the color of tinted fallen leaves.

The lyrics—wishing for “pure love that this romance will last forever”—are by a young Yasushi Akimoto.

As expected!

NocturneKuniyataka-no-Mikoto

Fuzjko Hemming – Nocturne No. 2 / Chopin
NocturneKuniyataka-no-Mikoto

Chopin wrote a total of 21 nocturnes over the course of his life, but when people think of Chopin’s nocturnes, the Nocturne No.

2 in E-flat major, Op.

9-2, is the first that comes to mind.

Its beautiful melody never grows tiresome no matter how many times you listen, though criticism seems divided; some harsh opinions claim it is nothing more than a sweet tune embellished and repeated.

No.7Jibaku Shōnen Bando

Jibaku Shounen Band – No.7 (Music Video) [TV Anime “Toilet-Bound Hanako-kun” Opening Theme]
No.7Jibaku Shōnen Bando

No.7, which also made waves for its star-studded collaboration, was created as the opening theme for the anime Toilet-bound Hanako-kun.

The track is performed by Jibaku Shonen Band, a special unit formed for this work by Takashi Ikuta, the vocalist of PENGUIN RESEARCH, singer-songwriter Masayoshi Oishi, and the creator unit ZiNG.

That’s quite a lineup, isn’t it? What’s more, members of the idol group ZOC joined in for the chorus.

No ReasonHentai Shinshi Kurabu

A cool, mellow track that brings out a sophisticated, grown-up allure to the fullest.

The lyrics gently appeal rather than shouting, carrying a quiet yet clear message that awakens the passion we tend to forget in everyday life—and that really hits home.

Since there’s very little range or dynamic fluctuation, just memorize the lyrics well and sing along with the groove.

You’ll definitely leave listeners thinking, “So cool!”

Noahyoake no wadachi

Ruts of Dawn 'Noah' feat. Hatsune Miku
Noahyoake no wadachi

A ballad song by Yoake no Wadachi, known for their approachable guitar rock–based tracks.

Unlike their other songs, this one stands out with an exquisitely beautiful orchestral arrangement.

The lyrics explore how to accept one’s own weakness and how to face the things that are precious and not to be lost.

While the song carries a somewhat wistful atmosphere, the words in the lyrics also convey a sense of positivity and hope, and Hatsune Miku’s wonderfully gentle vocals resonate deeply in the heart.

Swallowed / Ooshio Kumu feat. Naruka Hime
swallowedOoshio Kugimu

This is a high-class Vocaloid track distinguished by its sound arrangement that sways right and left.

Composed by Ooshio Kuimu, who also works on Touhou arrangements, it was released in 2020.

The cool, EDM-style arrangement gives it a mature and stylish vibe.

As mentioned earlier, the stereo-conscious arrangement is especially appealing.

You’ll discover something new each time you listen.

It might be more enjoyable with earphones or headphones than with speakers.

Let the sound carry both your body and your heart!

No Woman, No CryDaitōjin

This is a cover of Bob Marley’s classic “No Woman, No Cry” in Uchināguchi (Okinawan).

The lyrics are completely different from the original and the song has been arranged as an Okinawan piece, which was extremely striking.

It is performed by three princesses from the Daitō Islands.
