Songs that start with 'Vu'. For shiritori, karaoke, and playlist selection.
In this article, I’ll be introducing lots of Vocaloid songs whose titles start with the katakana “ヴ.”
When it comes to words starting with “ヴ” that might be used in song titles, examples include “Venus” (ヴィーナス), “Vampire” (ヴァンパイア), and “Vintage” (ヴィンテージ).
If you’re familiar with plenty of Japanese songs, a few tracks probably came to mind as soon as you saw these words.
This time, I’ve selected a wide range—from famous hits to hidden gems—so please enjoy discovering both classics and songs you might not know yet.
Feel free to use this as inspiration for shiritori with song titles, as well as for choosing tracks for karaoke or your playlists.

Violin Concerto in D minor, Op. 47: Fourth MovementLeonidas Kavakos
A Greek violinist, he was born in 1967 into a musical family in Athens.
He became famous in 1985 by winning first prize as the youngest laureate at the International Jean Sibelius Violin Competition, and has performed with several leading orchestras.
He is also active in chamber music and works as a conductor, contributing widely to the world of classical music.
Verdi: Requiem, from ‘Dies Irae’Mariss Jansons
At first glance he looks like a mafia boss who accidentally got caught next to a Russian oligarch—and the sound matches that impression.
Once he gets going, he really lets the orchestra rip.
Here stands Mariss Jansons, the man who could silence even a crying child.
World-class performances need to be at least this bold to be interesting.
The score reading is, in a good way, clear and easy to grasp.
Violin Concerto in G major, Op. 3 No. 3, RV 310Matthias Höfs
Matthias Höfs is a world-renowned German trumpeter.
Born in 1965, he began playing the trumpet at age six and, at eighteen, was appointed principal trumpet of the Hamburg Philharmonic State Orchestra.
He spans a wide range of genres—from classical and baroque to contemporary music—and is highly acclaimed for both his technique and expressiveness.
His work with German Brass, which he joined in 1985, has been outstanding, and in 2016 he received the ECHO Klassik Award.
As an educator, he has dedicated himself to training the next generation and has served as a professor at the Hamburg University of Music and Theatre since 2000.
His innovative performances and involvement in instrument development have opened new horizons in trumpet music.
He is a recommended artist not only for classical music fans but also for anyone seeking to explore the possibilities of music.
VikingMrs. GREEN APPLE
While Mrs.
GREEN APPLE has many orthodox songs, some of their works incorporate elements of folk music.
Among them, the one I especially recommend is Viking.
As the title suggests, this piece blends musical elements associated with Vikings.
It’s not authentic folk music like Viking metal, but that makes it all the more filled with singable phrases.
The key reason it’s easy to sing is its relatively narrow vocal range.
Though the overall range is similar to that of a typical song, within the band’s catalog it’s on the narrower side, so even those who struggle with high notes should find it approachable.
And since it’s not a full-on Viking style, the rhythm is also easy to follow.
VirginityREBECCA
Rebecca is best known for Friends, but in recent years it seems that attention has also been turning to their early and later songs.
Speaking of their early signature tracks, this song fits the bill.
Even though Rebecca had a strong pop image from a little before Friends, I feel their early work leaned more toward a rock sound.
VANESSA (Prod. NARISK)RYKEYDADDYDIRTY
RYKEYDADDYDIRTY is a rapper born to a Japanese mother and Kenyan father who started rapping at 17.
Produced by NARISK, who works as a beatmaker and DJ, “VANESSA (Prod.
NARISK)” pairs an aggressive rap with a mellow beat to striking effect.
The lyrics, infused with a sense of outlaw atmosphere and burning passion, offer a vivid realism that lets listeners picture the scenes as they hear them.
It’s a soulful track whose relentless flow builds a distinctive world.

Verdi: Overture to the opera “Nabucco”Riccardo Muti
In Italian opera houses, there used to be a tradition that if the audience found a performance boring, all sorts of things would be thrown from the seats.
In that rough-and-tumble environment, Muti’s music emerged as something you simply never tire of.
He won’t let you get bored—he hits the key points, the parts to enjoy and the parts to grieve, so it has that refreshing feeling of scratching exactly where it itches.
