A collection of Western songs with titles that start with numbers

In this article, I’ll be introducing classic Western songs whose titles begin with numbers.

When it comes to number-starting titles, some consist of numbers only, while others have words following the numbers.

If you’re knowledgeable about Western music, you might already have a few songs in mind.

That said, we don’t often search for songs by categories like “titles that start with XX,” so this could be a great chance to discover wonderful tracks you didn’t know before.

Take this opportunity to listen to a variety of songs!

In 2019 they even performed in Japan, steadily growing their fanbase here as well—the French future house duo Rayven & Valexx.

This is their track “1995.” The song is built around the speaking voice of a Black woman.

I couldn’t tell whether it was recorded specifically for this track or sampled, but it must take serious taste to make spoken words sound this cool.

It’s a track that overwhelmingly showcases their impeccable sense.

96:01 01:00Richie Hawtin

Often called the “King of Minimal Techno,” Richie Hawtin is a great artist originally from Oxfordshire, England, who moved to Ontario, Canada at a young age and has deep ties to the techno scene in nearby Detroit.

He’s the kind of artist who works under multiple aliases: while crafting sounds in the early 1990s that could be seen as an evolution of acid house, he also explored experimental avenues that heavily influenced click and minimal aesthetics.

He runs labels like MINUS and PLUS 8—essential listening for anyone interested in minimal techno—and continues to lead the broader world of electronic music.

Since this piece focuses on minimal techno, I’ll introduce “96:01 01:00,” a track from Concept 1, the first installment of his conceptual 12-inch series Concept, which he released monthly in 1996.

Hawtin himself has called this series the most important turning point of his career.

Its experimental nature and the way it seems to imprint his state of mind at the time make this track a historically essential masterpiece for anyone delving deeper into minimal techno.

This is a track by SZA, known as the queen of R&B.

It’s a collaboration with Kendrick Lamar from the United States and is included on the album “Lana.” The lyrics, which express self-affirmation and a longing for genuine, unpretentious relationships, are striking, and the powerful vocals from SZA and Kendrick Lamar are captivating.

Released in December 2024, the song generated buzz by racking up 3.16 million views within 24 hours.

Blending R&B and hip-hop, it has a distinctly soulful vibe.

It’s a recommended listen when you want to reflect on deep relationships and personal growth.

From the very first sound choices, this track by DJ Sam Feldt & Sigma teaming up with vocalist Gia Koka maximizes an ultra-melodic, catchy refrain.

With a riff-driven song like this, everything has to be top-notch—from the timbre of the riff and where it’s used to the melody itself.

It’s a track where their craftsmanship truly shines.
