Songs with titles that start with “Yo”

There are times when you unexpectedly need songs that start with a certain character.

For example, when you’re enjoying karaoke with restrictions, it’s hard to come up with songs on the spot, right?

So in this article, we’ll introduce songs whose titles start with “Yo.”

Not just for karaoke—you can also use this for games like brainstorming quizzes, where you see how many songs you can name and then sing the ones that come to mind.

They seem like they should be easy to think of but aren’t—here’s a lineup of songs that start with “Yu!”

Rin Mizushima, whose mother is Yuki Saito—an iconic idol and actress from the Showa-era pop scene—began her acting career with a 2021 drama appearance and made her singing debut in September 2022 with the digital single “Yokan” (Premonition).

She also showcased her creative talents by directing the music video herself.

In addition to appearing in the NHK morning drama “Chimudondon,” she was cast as the lead in the musical “Cinderella Story,” where her collaboration with her mother—who wrote the lyrics—also drew attention.

Since then, she has continued to captivate listeners with her clear, airy voice, releasing tracks such as “Sakura no Kakera.” She’s an artist highly recommended for those who want to enjoy both acting and music.

The calling voiceVaundy

Written specifically for NHK General’s event “Vaundy 18-sai-sai” and released for streaming in December 2025, this work drew major attention as Vaundy performed together with 1,000 young people from the 18-year-old generation.

Created using the earnest messages and videos submitted from across the country, it doesn’t just offer a push from behind; it also vividly portrays the weight of resolve and responsibility that comes with pursuing dreams and goals.

The overwhelming energy and sense of unity born through the choral performance powerfully moves the hearts of listeners.

A work whose gentle acoustic sound resonates in the heart, as if melting into the clear winter air.

Created by the globally active XG, this track was released digitally in December 2025 as a lead single from their first full album, “THE CORE,” set for release in January 2026.

It’s a ballad sung by CHISA, HINATA, and JURIA, with lyrics that layer unspoken emotions onto the shifting of the seasons—both bittersweet and warm.

Their delicate vocals bring a soothing comfort that spreads slowly, like warmth seeping into a chilled body.

They want to spend time with the one they love, but it just doesn’t work out… It’s a catchy yet heartrending Christmas song! The track is by Vocaloid producer Boin Boushoku-P and was released in December 2025.

The protagonist can’t quite take that final step in love, and the lyrics—so pure and honest—tighten your chest.

As you keep listening, you can’t help but root for them more and more.

I bet quite a few people have spent a Christmas like this.

Evening PrimroseSakushi: Takehisa Yumeji / Sakkyoku: Tada Tadaaki

This is a lyrical song that overlays the poignant feeling of waiting for someone who never comes onto the evening primrose, a flower that opens from dusk into night.

Tadaaki Ōno, who was also a violinist, set a melody to a short poem written by Yumeji Takehisa, and it was published by Senoo Music in May 1918.

It became a topic of conversation because Yumeji himself created the cover illustration, and it is said to have spread across the country in no time.

Around 1938, it was also featured as a movie theme song and became a hit through the vocals of Mieko Takamine.

Its wistful melody is easy to sing, and merely humming it seems to bring the scenes of that era back to life.

It’s perfect for spending a leisurely moment on a long winter night or for singing together in recreational settings.

Why not enjoy a heartwarming time while sharing fond memories?

After the nightadieu

It’s included on adieu’s first mini-album, “adieu 1,” released under Moka Kamishiraishi’s stage name.

With a translucent voice and delicate words, the piece depicts a prayer to be able to live without telling lies.

The overall vocal range is fairly wide, from F3 to F#5, but because the range shifts with each melodic phrase, it shouldn’t feel difficult as long as you sing each line carefully.

A breathy tone may generally be easier to sing with.

Since both low and high notes appear, it’s very important to keep the resonance in the same place.

Focus on the area between the eyebrows and make sure it resonates clearly.

The night is faintly aglow.EVE

Eve, who enjoys immense popularity in the utaite community, has a strikingly unique voice—sleek and glossy yet somehow childlike.

Among his songs, the one I especially recommend is Yoru wa Honoka.

You might find the falsetto in the chorus challenging, but it isn’t significantly harder than a typical high-range song.

The real tricky part is the low notes right after the chorus; very few male singers can deliver this section with the minimum required volume.

If you’re confident in your falsetto technique and lower register, definitely give it a try.
