Songs with titles that start with 'de'. Perfect as hints for karaoke or shiritori!
Have you ever played “Shiritori Karaoke,” where you link songs in karaoke using the last letter of the previous song, or “Song Title Shiritori,” where you play using only the song titles?
In karaoke, it’s great when your go-to songs start feeling repetitive, and for regular shiritori, it’s perfect when you want to raise the difficulty.
You’ll end up singing songs you don’t usually pick, and sometimes you can’t think of a title, which really livens things up!

This Lonely HeartLOUDNESS
One of the most famous Japanese heavy metal bands in the world—that’s Loudness.
Centered around Akira Takasaki and Munetaka Higuchi, both from the band Lazy (which is also known for having Hironobu Kageyama as a member), Loudness was formed in 1981.
There was a period when Takasaki was the only original member left, but the band relaunched with the original lineup in 2000.
Sadly, Higuchi passed away in 2008, yet the band has remained highly active into the 2020s.
The influence Loudness has had on subsequent musicians is immeasurable.
As one of the first Japanese heavy metal bands to break into the global market, they became a legendary act with a passionate overseas fanbase, even landing their albums in the Billboard Top 100.
I recommend starting with the works from the first lineup, then exploring releases from other periods.
Dear My FriendLittle Glee Monster feat. Pentatonix
They’re getting married and starting a new life, but that doesn’t mean everything will go perfectly.
Sometimes they’ll fight and feel down.
This is a gentle message song meant to make you think, “It’s okay—because that person is on my side.” It’s a collaboration between the girls’ vocal group Little Glee Monster and the a cappella group Pentatonix, released in 2020.
The smooth, pleasant choral work is truly wonderful.
Despacito ft. Daddy YankeeLuis Fonsi
The most successful Latin music hit in the world, “Despacito ft.
Daddy Yankee.” This work by Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee transcended the Spanish-speaking world and became popular worldwide.
Many people in Japan are probably familiar with it as well.
It has long been popular in short videos, and recently Daddy Yankee’s part seems to be frequently used as background music.
It appears in the middle of the track, so be sure to check it out.
EncounterMACO
This is a song performed by MACO that expresses the exhilaration of budding romance and the joy of cherishing the moment of meeting someone special.
With a gentle sound centered on acoustic guitar and piano tones, it conveys warmth and happiness straight from the heart.
The lyrics charmingly depict how everyday life changes after meeting that important person, and how you find yourself thinking of them in quiet moments.
It’s a bright, uplifting song that also portrays a strong wish for the happiness felt throughout the body to continue into the future.
Dead End in TokyoMAN WITH A MISSION
This is the song that played over the ending of Shinjuku Swan II, which features a star-studded cast including Go Ayano and Tadanobu Asano portraying the lives of outlaws.
MAN WITH A MISSION’s somewhat dry sound matched the film’s atmosphere perfectly.
The ‘Dead End’ in the title ‘Dead End in Tokyo’ means a cul-de-sac or a dead end.
Knowing that meaning makes the song feel even cooler when you listen to it.
database feat.TAKUMA(10-FEET)MAN WITH A MISSION
MAN WITH A MISSION, who have produced many anime songs, collaborated with TAKUMA from 10-FEET on “database,” which was used as the theme song for Log Horizon.
With lyrics written by TAKUMA, its stance of “keep fighting” seems to resonate with various adolescent feelings.
The repeatedly sung title phrase is incredibly cool, and if you can deliver it smoothly, it’s sure to raise the audience’s excitement even more! Definitely add it to your performance repertoire!

Secret tryst with DioMARIE, Hiroshi Itsuki
The duet song “Dio Shinobi-ai” by singer Hanako Nohara and Hiroshi Itsuki, performed under the stage name MARIE.
For MARIE, this song became a turning point that boosted her popularity.
The highlight of the piece lies in its sultry lyrics and melody.
It leans more toward mood kayō than traditional enka, portraying a man–woman romance with alluring, seductive expressions.
MARIE’s parts go quite high, so if you can use falsetto or mixed voice, definitely give it a try.
