[Karaoke] A Collection of Songs Whose Titles Start with 'Mo'
At karaoke, people sometimes set various rules, like singing songs by the same artist or choosing based on song titles.
One fun idea is to pick a letter from the Japanese syllabary and sing “songs that start with ___.”
In this article, we’ll introduce a selection of songs that start with “mo,” so feel free to use this as a reference for your next karaoke session.
Many of these tracks feature sentimental words like “moshi” (if) and “mou” (already/no longer), so it can be nice to think about the lyrics’ meaning or imagine the story as you sing.
Be sure to check out these “mo”-starting songs by artists who’ve been active from the Showa era through Heisei and into Reiwa.

With Riko’s vocals riding atop crisp, powerful melodies, KABUKUN’s tight rhythms, and Taiyo’s guitar work forming a seamless trio, they captivate listeners with overflowing energy and youthful spirit.
Their rise was sparked by relentless, high-energy shows at local live houses and the viral spread of some tracks on social media.

MORNING GLORY?Oasis
Among UK rock bands, they’re probably the most well-known.
They have many Japanese fans, and their songs are used in numerous commercials, so I think the tunes feel familiar.

moratoriumOmoinotake
The rich sound of the piano feels like it reaches deep into your chest.
This track is by Omoinotake, a piano trio band from Shimane Prefecture, and is included on a mini-album of the same name as the song, released in 2020.
It serves as the theme song for the animated film “Twittering Birds Never Fly: The Clouds Gather.” It’s a ballad with a dreamy atmosphere that brings a sense of calm when you listen.
However, the lyrics express a poignant longing—wishing the two of us could stay like this forever—which tightens the chest with its sorrow.
It makes you want to cherish the time you have now with the person you love.
Delusional HawaiiPASSPO
Hawaii is often chosen as a location for gravure photo shoots and music videos.
With its open and free-spirited image, Hawaii is a dream destination everyone wants to visit at least once.
It would be great to go there, but sometimes time just doesn’t allow it—there are times you simply can’t go.
In those moments, let’s enjoy Hawaii through our imagination.
MORNINGLIGHTPRISM
Prism is the band led by Akira Wada—one of the greatest Japanese guitarists—who sadly passed away on March 28, 2021.
It’s an indispensable band in the history of Japanese fusion and continues to be respected as a significant presence in Japan’s music history.
Around the mid-1970s, a session band that would become the prototype of Prism started with Wada at its center; in 1976, six official members came together, and during recording the band adopted the name Prism and began full-scale activities.
Even before their album debut, they opened for Eric Clapton’s Japan tour, and their music—backed by overwhelming technique and taste—drew early attention.
In 1977, they released their debut album on the major label Polydor Records, and the concert celebrating their debut was reportedly a great success.
Thereafter, amid successive member departures and new additions, they stayed true to their distinctive style—including an approach toward progressive rock—and, with Wada as the core, continued performing into the 2010s and beyond, truly a legendary band that Japan can proudly present to the world.
