Songs With Titles Starting With “O” [Great for Karaoke & Shiritori!] (1–10)
On My MindNEW!Alex Warren & ROSÉ
This song beautifully captures the bittersweet feeling of being unable to let go of a former lover’s memory, contrasting a translucent vocal tone with emotional, passionate delivery.
Its sound is both nostalgic and exhilarating, which is part of its charm.
Featuring BLACKPINK’s Rosé and released in June 2025, the track was later included on the album “You’ll Be Alright, Kid,” and made its presence felt on the U.S.
and U.K.
charts.
The music video, where reality and recollection seem to intersect, is also striking.
It’s a tender ballad that stays with you—perfect for nights when you can’t release the past and want to sit quietly with your thoughts.
Let’s dance!NEW!Snow Man
Snow Man is a male idol group that showcases a wide range of activities, wielding compelling physical expression and formation dance as their strengths.
This song—one of the title tracks from their single “BANG!! / SAVE YOUR HEART / Odorouze!” released in April 2026—was released digitally ahead of time in February 2026.
It was selected as the theme song for the film “Specials,” which marks Daisuke Sakuma’s first solo starring role.
The track carries a positive message of laughing off everyday fatigue and anxieties and moving forward together by dancing.
Its irresistibly upbeat party tune is perfect for moments like school sports-day races or dances when you want to unite with friends and get hyped together.
Memories SakeNEW!Kobayashi Sachiko
This is a signature enka single released on January 25, 1979, which became a massive hit selling over two million copies.
It ranked 3rd on Oricon’s year-end chart and won the Best Vocal Performance at the 21st Japan Record Awards, with its poignant lyrics about lingering feelings for a former lover resonating with listeners.
The section before the chorus sits quite low, so try to avoid a muffled tone.
Focus on diaphragmatic breathing and make sure you can use your breath steadily.
Inhaling through the nose won’t give you enough air, so take a big breath through your mouth and try projecting your voice as if slowly exhaling straight ahead.
It’s good to sing the chorus with added drive and momentum.
