Songs with titles that start with “te.” Perfect for shiritori karaoke or song-title shiritori!

T.G.I. Friday NightTravis Japan
Travis Japan is an idol group whose performances rival K-pop and are attracting global attention.
They have overwhelming support from women in their teens to thirties.
With many hit songs, one I especially recommend for men with higher voices is T.G.I.
Friday Night.
The rap and falsetto hook are striking, making it a track that really showcases the strengths of higher male voices.
However, since it’s a song performed by multiple members, you might struggle with breathing.
If that’s an issue, plan to skip certain parts as needed.
Heaven and HellUNISON SQUARE GARDEN
In August 2014, UNISON SQUARE GARDEN released a high-energy, fast-paced track.
Featured on the album “Catcher In The Spy,” the song is highly regarded as a piece that distills the band’s appeal.
Kosuke Saito’s clear, transparent vocals pair perfectly with the sharp, edgy band ensemble, giving the song a universal quality that resonates with all kinds of listeners.
The lyrics include the phrase “count heaven and hell,” which seems to convey the importance of judging and accepting life’s good and bad, success and failure, for yourself.
The song is also a live favorite, often prompting massive sing-alongs and securing its status as one of the band’s signature tracks.
It’s popular at karaoke as well, covering a wide vocal range and suiting many singers.
Highly recommended for anyone seeking excitement and fun in their daily life.
A thoroughly nocturnal night-after-night driveUNISON SQUARE GARDEN
A track from their fourth year after debut, characterized by a gritty, hard-rock sound.

It’s recommended for hardcore fans too, and knowing it gives you that connoisseur vibe.
Iron EmperorUnlucky Morpheus
Unlucky Morpheus is a seven-member metal band that channels influences from video game music and anime songs into a virtuoso, melodic metal sound.
“Tekko” from their EP Taki Yasha Hime creates a striking impact through the contrast between its massive band sound and powerful vocals.
The aggressive ensemble—fusing Japanese melodies and instruments—delivers a shock that sets it apart from classic metal tracks.
With its grand arrangement that draws you into its world, it’s a number that deserves to be heard by listeners beyond just metal fans.

HammerstormVell
This is a feverish Vocaloid track I highly recommend when you want to boost your mood! It’s by the Vocaloid producer Vell, also known for the hit “Gibyurita,” and it was released in December 2023.
The funky, rock-infused sound is irresistibly upbeat.
The arrangement showcases great taste, with a dancey vibe in the chorus and a surprise shift into a Japanese-style section midway through.
