Compilation of Western songs with titles starting with 'O' (131–140)

Ogden’s Nut Gone FlakeSmall Faces

This is the third album by the UK’s Small Faces, released in 1968, which cemented their reputation as a psychedelic band.

Its round, tobacco-tin–inspired sleeve is celebrated as a landmark in music design, and there’s even a quirky anecdote that it had to be switched to paper because copies kept rolling off store shelves.

Side A offers a variety of tracks, while Side B unfolds as a suite: a fantastical tale about a “happy boy” searching for the other half of the moon.

Brimming with the band’s playful irreverence and artistic flair, this classic exerted a major influence on later Britpop acts.

If you want to immerse yourself in the witty world of British psychedelia, you’ll likely be captivated by this one-of-a-kind sonic story.

Outdoor MinerWire

A signature song that brought widespread recognition to the British post-punk band Wire.

When it was released in 1979, its pop-leaning sound drew a lot of attention.

The shimmering piano and airy, floating guitar tones—so unlike the genre’s typical image—are wonderfully pleasing, aren’t they? In fact, the lyrics sung over this beautiful melody are told from the perspective of a tiny insect burrowing through leaves.

You can’t help but be drawn into the uniquely artistic lyrics that elevate the workings of a microscopic world into art.

It’s said that precisely because the track is so pop for them, lead guitarist Bruce Gilbert hated it so much that he would walk off stage when it was performed.

In any case, its curious charm continues to influence countless artists.

Only Love Can Break Your HeartNeil Young

This is a classic song by Canadian singer-songwriter Neil Young that quietly portrays the pain of heartbreak.

It’s said to have been written with his bandmate Graham Nash’s painful breakup in mind.

The universal message in the title—“In the end, only love can break your heart”—pierces deeply into the soul.

That helpless sense of loss when you lose someone precious—many of us know it all too well.

Neil Young’s delicate, fragile voice and the gentle acoustic tones softly cradle a wounded heart.

It’s a song that carries a warm reassurance, as if to say, “You’re not alone,” offering quiet comfort.

Our TruthLACUNA COIL

This track epitomizes the Italian band Lacuna Coil, where heavy guitar riffs intertwine with an Oriental-tinged melody reminiscent of the shamisen.

It’s a soul’s cry to cast off a false mask and hold fast to a truth of one’s own, painted over a dramatic soundscape.

The contrast between Cristina’s clear, translucent vocals and Andrea’s powerful voice brilliantly captures inner conflict and release.

The song comes from their 2006 album Karmacode and was also featured on the soundtrack of the film Underworld: Evolution.

When you want to break through your current situation or fire yourself up, listening to it will surely give you a push.

Over the IceThe Field

The Field – Over the Ice ‘From Here We Go Sublime’ Album
Over the IceThe Field

This is the debut album by The Field, the solo project of Axel Willner from Sweden.

Released on a prestigious German techno label, it garnered widespread acclaim, with critics hailing it as “the best masterpiece of 2007.” Its hallmark is an inventive technique of extracting tiny snippets from songs by artists like Kate Bush and layering them many times over.

Fragments of electronic sound glitter like a kaleidoscope, creating a vast, soothing sense of weightless drift.

It makes you feel as if you’re traveling through an endless landscape, while somehow evoking a strange sense of nostalgia.

Letting yourself be carried by the waves of repetition, you may find it helps you forget the noise of everyday life—such is the charm of this album.

Oh WellRich Brian

A deeply introspective number crafted by Indonesia-born Rich Brian.

The piece seems to portray a bittersweet acceptance and quiet resolve—like murmuring “well, it is what it is” in the face of an unchangeable reality.

Marking a sharp turn from his early comedic persona, its melancholic, Alternative R&B-leaning sound highlights his remarkable growth.

Released in June 2025, the track is a lead single from the album “Where Is My Head?” and also drew attention for being performed before roughly 40,000 people at an LA festival.

It’s the kind of song that, on a night when nothing goes your way, gently loosens the tension in your chest.

Benee, the New Zealand artist whose global TikTok hit is still fresh in our minds, released a work in June 2025 that captivates with an aggressive sound overturning her previously pop-leaning image.

This piece channels societal anxiety and inner chaos into “feminine rage,” and its creation by a women-led team likely contributes to its raw energy.

With anticipation building for her first new release since the 2020 album Hey U X, her talents are also blossoming in other areas, including contributing to the soundtrack for A Minecraft Movie.

It’s the perfect track to play when you want to break through something—you’ll feel an incredible sense of release.
