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?

Things like “Nobody…,” “Note,” “NOT…,” and so on.
There are also memorable masterpiece tracks that symbolize the artists themselves.

Songs with Titles Starting with “No” [Great for Karaoke & Shiritori Too!] (411–420)
Nobunaga KING OF ZIPANGUMōri Kurōdo
This is the theme song for “Nobunaga: King of Zipangu,” composed by Kurando Mōri.
“Nobunaga: King of Zipangu” is the 30th Taiga drama, broadcast from January 5 to December 13, 1992.
It is set in the Azuchi–Momoyama period, the first such setting since the 1989 series “Kasuga no Tsubone,” and the lead role was played by Naoto Ogata.
This was the first Taiga drama to feature a song with lyrics.
NostalgiaTakeuchi Mariya
A single cut from the album “Bon Appetit!”, released in 2001.
It also served as the theme song for a TV Asahi drama.
The strings are used effectively, giving the song a somewhat nostalgic feel, just as the title suggests.
It depicts a woman reminiscing about an unforgettable first love.
Mariya Takeuchi’s voice exudes poignancy and beautifully conveys the song’s world.
NONSTOP DANCEROginome Yōko
It’s a track included on the album of the same name released in 1987, and that album even topped the annual sales chart.
Yoko Oginome’s pop vocals and the beat-driven sound are nothing short of emblematic of the 1980s.

Not For SaleTanimura Yumi
This person is also a long-running singer-songwriter who has continued their musical activities for many years.
I always thought their natural, down-to-earth way of speaking on the radio was distinctive, but it turns out that in the ’80s they were decked out in full-on bubble-era fashion.
It reminds me of the saying, “Every person has a history.”
Cape NosappuMonma Ryo
Mr.
Ryo Monma became a disciple of Daisaburo Nakayama after winning the Grand Champion title on TBS Television’s “Machikado TV 11:00,” and he made his debut with this song in 1989.
He is now active as a radio personality, among other roles.
NOROSHIKanjani∞
This is their 37th single, released on December 7, 2016.
It served as the theme song for the film “Mogura no Uta: Hong Kong Kyosokyoku” (The Mole Song: Hong Kong Capriccio).
In a full-fledged band style, it’s a track that keeps you glued to Kanjani∞’s performance.
From Ryuhei Maruyama’s bass in the intro to Yu Yokoyama’s trumpet, you can fully appreciate the markedly leveled-up “Band Kanjani∞.” Their appearance in traditional Japanese attire when performing it on TV also drew a huge response.
Vegetable fortune-tellingAKB48
This is a delightful song with a unique idea: using vegetables to tell fortunes about people’s personalities and compatibility.
Familiar veggies like tomatoes and cabbages make an appearance, and the lyrics charmingly liken each vegetable’s traits to human characteristics in a way that brings a smile.
Released in August 2011 as the CM song for Kagome’s “Yasai Ichinichi Kore Ippon,” the track centers on the AKB48 characters known as the “Vegetable Sisters.” Thanks to the synergy with the commercial, it became popular across generations, making it a tune that everyone—from children to the elderly—can enjoy.
Even those who don’t like vegetables might find themselves feeling closer to them after hearing this song.
