Foreign pop songs about flowers: World-famous and popular songs (21–30)

The RoseWestlife

When it comes to songs with flower names in the title, The Rose comes to mind, doesn’t it? Originally a classic ballad sung by Bette Midler, the version by the Irish vocal group Westlife is also highly recommended! This song, which speaks of love as a flower, has a powerful quality that gives you courage when you want to run away from something.

In Japan, Harumi Miyako performs it with Japanese lyrics in the animated film Only Yesterday (Omohide Poro Poro), so if you’re curious, be sure to give that a listen too!

Lotus FlowerRadiohead

Radiohead, a rock band that represents the United Kingdom, is said to experiment with each album and possess a musical style not confined to the rock genre.

The vocalist Thom Yorke is also active in his solo work.

It’s said that their classic song Lotus Flower has a PV (music video) featuring an Egashira 2:50 version.

Stevie Wonder is a genius musician who plays a wide variety of instruments so well that it’s hard to believe he has such limited vision, effortlessly transcending musical genres from soul and R&B to rock, pop, jazz, and Latin.

One of his songs is titled “Black Orchid,” which means a black orchid flower.

Rose In DecemberHalestorm

Halestorm – Rose In December LIVE at The Chameleon Club, Lancaster, PA 12/28/10

Led by Lzzy Hale, who is known for her exceptionally high-level vocal technique, Halestorm is a hard rock band.

The band’s performance is outstanding, but this time I’d like to introduce Lzzy Hale’s solo rendition.

Released in 2001, this song became popular among fans for its lyrics that portray deep love.

The line “When December comes, I’ll be your rose” exudes a captivating mix of sensuality and purity, two seemingly opposing moods.

A single from Wild Wood, Paul Weller’s second solo album released in ’93.

Having made his mark as a member of The Jam and The Style Council, Paul’s mature charm only grows with age.

The album, packed with his signature sophisticated rock ’n’ roll, is highly recommended.
