A roundup of Vocaloid songs with titles starting with “Shi”

How many Vocaloid songs with titles starting with “shi” can you think of?

For example, Balloon’s “Charles” is probably the first one that came to mind for many, right?

There are plenty of words that start with “shi,” like “shinkai” (deep sea), “shiro” (white), “Cinderella,” and “shiawase” (happiness).

I’m sure some Vocaloid fans immediately thought of several song titles just from seeing those words.

In this article, we’ll introduce a whole lineup of Vocaloid songs with titles that start with “shi.”

Whether you know them or not, take this opportunity to give them another listen.

I don’t want to go to work (´;ω;`)Komiyachan P

[Hatsune Miku] I Don’t Want to Go to Work (´;ω;`) [Original Song Anime MV]
I don’t want to go to work (´;ω;`)Komiyachan P

This song is characterized by lyrics that are so relatable you can’t help but see yourself in them.

It’s also not very well-known, perhaps because it wasn’t made by a famous Vocaloid producer.

I recommend it to those who are heading back to work after Father’s Day—listen to it and keep pushing forward tomorrow.

In April, turning my back on youkosame

The precious summer memories with someone important gradually fade away.

I can’t help but dwell on the protagonist’s inner feelings as they stand in April, a season of change.

This work by Vocaloid producer Kosame was released in April 2022 and was an entry for “VocaColle Spring 2022.” Its refreshing tone blends a band sound with the timbre of piano—so pleasant to listen to! Thanks to that, even though the lyrics are bittersweet, you’ll feel uplifted by the end.

Perfect for resetting your mood and switching gears!

New Worldjungun

Why does it feel so ephemeral despite its power? This track is by the Vocaloid producer Junjun, also known for “Kansei” and “Hakai,” and it was released in March 2023.

From the intro’s driving synths into the first verse, and the transition from the pre-chorus into the chorus, the whole song feels seamlessly connected.

It might be the piano backing and chord progression at the core of the piece that creates that impression.

And the lyrical message of “Let’s walk together” really hits me in the chest.

Even the title packs a punch, and the lyrics are quite risqué, yet it’s a heartrending song.

It’s a track by Vocaloid producer Shikiura, released in 2022.

With its rhythmic, snappy tones, it’s very pleasant to listen to.

At the same time, the innocent singing voice and melody give it a fragile feel.

The lyrics suggest a melancholy dynamic in love—reaching out to someone even while knowing you’re not loved in return.

It may resonate especially with those nursing a one-sided crush.

Sogu Shikiura, who delivers numerous songs themed around the real-life love and daily lives of young people.

His 2023 work “Damp, Isn’t It?” paints a sultry portrait of two lovers.

Opening with spoken phrases by Utaai Yuki, the sound heats up as a passionate guitar riff kicks in.

Set against the sweltering heat of summer, the slightly thrilling worldview woven into the lyrics adds a palpable tension.

It’s a track where Utaai Yuki’s girlish vocals, carried by a driving, rhythmic band performance, convey the ache of a bittersweet love.

Some of you might be under a lot of stress or have gone through something sad and lost your motivation.

If that’s you, I recommend listening to “I Don’t Want to Die, But It Can’t Be Helped.” It’s a piece by the Vocaloid producer Tomoran.

The song portrays a protagonist who’s been crushed by reality and has lost the will to live, lying in bed and sinking deep into their thoughts.

They hit rock bottom, but at the very end of the song, they spring back to their feet.

It’s a “dark” song, but I think listening to it will lift your spirits!

White DaughterAku no P

[Yowane Haku] The White Maiden [Original in a Medieval Tale Style]
White DaughterAku no P

According to the author, it was originally written for a novel.

Because of that, the lyrics are characterized by their explanatory, narrative style.

This song alone is moving enough to make you cry, but if you have time, I highly recommend listening to “Servant of Evil” and “Daughter of White” as well.

Understanding the interconnections makes it hard to simply hate the Daughter of Evil, and I think it will hit you in the heart.
