Songs with titles that start with 'Ya'

This article introduces songs with titles that start with “Ya” (や).

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

When you put it that way, it’s surprisingly hard to come up with many, isn’t it?

This might come in handy someday—like for themed karaoke sessions, shiritori-style karaoke games, and more.

From classic smash hits to recent chart-toppers, we cover a wide range of songs old and new.

Feel free to use this as a handy reference whenever you need it!

As the title “A Gentle Song” suggests, both the performance and the vocal delivery are quite soft, making it a track that really tugs at the heart.

It might make you feel a bit sentimental, but the melody has a certain forward-looking quality that makes you want to listen to it over and over.

After all, I’m in last place.Dansu☆Man

These are Japanese songs that parody Dance☆Man’s R&B.

Every track is super funky and really entertaining, so I definitely recommend his other songs as well.

If possible, add an afro hairstyle, a mirror ball, and a fringed outfit, and you’ve got perfection.

Song of the Mountain Mandaakudakkusu

Here is a kayōkyoku released in 1962 by the Dark Ducks, a group that could be called a leading act among male vocal quartets.

The original song is said to be a military song, “Junko-bushi,” which was beloved at the Naval Academy that once stood in Etajima, Hiroshima Prefecture.

While the lyrics might be seen as sexist if sung today, the song’s gentle melody may well convey the atmosphere of that era.

I’ve listened to a lot of songs up to now, but I felt that this is the only one that’s given me such a mysterious feeling.

Once you hear it, you can’t forget it.

The powerful band performance and the cute, beautiful singing voice blend together nicely and feel so pleasant.

KAREN Tsuchiya, known for her heartwarming style, has been gaining popularity.

She began her music career in high school, initially playing drums.

Around 2020, however, she started writing and composing songs, and in 2021 she debuted as a singer-songwriter.

I hope you’ll first focus on her wonderful lyrics, which reflect her personality, and give her songs a listen.

Tsuchiya is also active on television and as a model, so if you’re interested, be sure to check out those activities as well.

This is a song featuring GUMI’s powerful, hard-hitting vocals.

You might stumble over the lyrics until you get used to it, but the way the chorus takes off is on a whole different level.

The tempo is fast, so it’s recommended to split parts with a friend and sing together.

GUMI doesn’t appear in the PV, but it’s simple and cool, so watch the video and practice singing.

YATTA!Bando ja nai mon!

Band Ja Naimon! / YATTA! [MUSIC VIDEO]
YATTA!Bando ja nai mon!

This is a cover of the Happa-tai classic, YATTA! It’s sung by a female idol group, but not in that formal attire.

It’s a typical idol-style cover without distinctive traits, and it leans on the strength of the song.

However, the music video, with its cheap set and cheesy animation, is oddly comforting.
