In this article, I’ll introduce a selection of songs that start with such words—tracks with titles beginning with “te.” Feel free to use this as a hint for karaoke shiritori where you connect the last character of a song title to the next, or for shiritori played with song titles only.

Angel's RestFumina Hisamatsu
Fumina Hisamatsu is a female singer who gained popularity for her musical style that blends glam rock and soft rock into J-pop.
She has a slightly low, full-bodied voice, and her hallmark is a husky, powerhouse vocal style reminiscent of male rock singers.
Among her songs, the one I especially recommend is Tenshi no Kyūsoku (Angel’s Rest).
If you’re a rock fan in your late 40s, you might have listened to it back in the day.
While the song is notable for its strong, driving melody, it sits mainly in the low-to-mid range and has a relatively narrow vocal range, making it a piece that suits many different voice types.
Consider adding it to your repertoire.

The Tokyo-based alternative rock band Rubens brings together the gentleness of J-pop with the raw allure of an alternative sound.

The band features Serena’s delicate vocals and poetic lyrics, Etsu’s melodious guitar, Mary on bass, and Matsumaru’s dynamic drumming.
True to their name, inspired by the Baroque master painter, they are marked by high artistry and richly expressive emotion.
They’re a band that strikes a chord with listeners seeking a fresh jolt.
Angel's MiracleTakako Ota
With its bright, lively melody and lyrics brimming with dreams and hope, this song stands out as a collaboration between two seasoned creators: Tetsurō Oda composing and Kumiko Tomoi writing the lyrics.
Released in March 1985 as Takako Ohta’s third single, it was also included on the albums “CREAMY TAKAKO SPECIAL” in June and “Long Good-bye” in July of the same year.
Known as the tie-in theme for the OVA “Lovely Serenade” from the anime “Magical Angel Creamy Mami,” it captivated many viewers when performed on NHK’s “Let’s Go Young.” Brimming with the charm of Ohta, who took the world by storm as a voice actress idol, this work masterfully blends the best of idol pop and anime songs—truly a miraculous track.

Even while seated, you can enjoy clapping along or tapping out steps, and it’s perfect for older adults to dance together in a circle.
It’s a tune that creates a wonderful time filled with natural smiles when everyone enjoys it together.
