A roundup of songs with titles starting with “Re.” Great for karaoke shiritori too!

How many songs that start with “Re” can you think of?

It’s surprisingly hard to recall them on the spot, isn’t it?

In this article, we’ve put together song titles that start with “Re,” focusing mainly on J-POP.

There’s even a karaoke shiritori game, so some of you may want to know songs evenly across all kana or add to your repertoire.

Feel free to use this as a reference.

You might even find yourself thinking, “Oh right, there was that song too,” and feel a touch of nostalgia.

A roundup of songs with titles that start with “Re.” Great for karaoke shiritori too! (371–380)

0:25furenzu

When you think of Friends, their bright, poppy band sound stands out, but 0:25 flips the script into a stylish track with a cool, mature vibe.

From a piano intro that feels like it’s spinning off an old record, it flows into a mellow hip-hop sound, snappy rap, and Emi Okamoto’s slightly wistful vocals that waft in like the sultry air of the night.

This is a track from Food Brain’s only work, “Social Gathering (Bansan),” formed by members including Shinpei Chen—often called the Japanese Jimi Hendrix—and Hiro Tsunoda (then credited as Hiro Tsunoda).

Released in 1970, it features rock so intense you wouldn’t believe it was from that era.

On the Calendar, It’s December (Babyraids Version)

Some of you may be looking for songs that energize you for the coming year.

In that case, I’d like to recommend “Koyomi no Ue de wa December.” It’s a song presented as being performed by an idol group that appears in the NHK morning drama series Amachan, while the actual vocals are by Babyraids.

It’s a catchy pop track where the rhyme on the word “December” in the title feels especially pleasing.

Another reason to recommend it is the abundance of phrases that evoke the year’s end.

Bell – 046 (Official Music Video)

Bell is a rapper who enjoys popularity in the freestyle scene.

His track “046” is one of his signature works.

Although he’s now been properly arrested and is known as a bona fide thug rapper, back then he was treated almost like a joke entry.

This song, partly poking fun at that version of Bell, went viral on platforms like TikTok.

If you’ve ever used TikTok, you’ve probably heard it—so try singing it at karaoke.

Red AngelPoketto Bisuketsu

Red Angel, released in 1997 by the unit Pocket Biscuits—comprising Chiaki, Teruyoshi Uchimura, and Udo Suzuki—was used as the ending theme for the variety show “Uchimura Nanchan no Urinari!!,” where the unit originated, and went on to become a million-selling hit.

With this song, Udo Suzuki, also known as UDO, played an instrument for the first time, taking on the electric drums.

Compared to their previous single, YELLOW YELLOW HAPPY, this track has a distinctly different tone, with unique lyrics and melody that evoke a mysterious world.

The lyrics convey a powerful message: as long as the one you love is by your side, you can do anything for them.

RemPorukadotto Sutingurei

It’s a heartwarming song about mustering the courage to take a new step forward, even while carrying the anxiety of parting and change with someone important to you.

Released in November 2017 as the lead track from Polkadot Stingray’s major-label debut album “Zenchi Zennou,” the piece captivates with its refreshing rock sound and an uplifting message that blooms like a flower in the sunlight.

Kaonashi Hasegawa from CreepHyp joins on violin, adding further breadth and depth.

It’s a song that stays close to anyone who fears change yet wants to move forward, and to those who are longing for a new morning.

Zero colormakaroni enpitsu

Macaroni Enpitsu is a rock band that appears at many major music festivals in Japan.

Their songs “Young Adult” and “Blueberry Nights” are known as live staples.

Among their catalog, a hidden gem is “Zero-shoku.” It’s included on “Al dente,” released in 2015.

The track is notable for its nostalgic synth tones.

While it has a rhythmic tempo, it also carries an emotional atmosphere.

Give this refreshing yet bittersweet rock number a listen.
