A compilation of Western songs with titles starting with 'P'
In this article, I’ll be introducing classic Western songs whose titles start with the letter “P.” When you think of English words that begin with “P,” terms like “Peace,” “Party,” and “Picture” come to mind—some of you might already be thinking of a few songs just from seeing those words.
I don’t think many of us have had the chance to specifically seek out and listen only to songs that start with a particular letter.
But looking at them this way might help you discover tracks you didn’t know or lead to new findings.
I’d be delighted if this becomes an opportunity for you to encounter some new music.

PromiseMatchbook Romance
Hearing those crystalline clean-guitar arpeggios is enough to bring back the bittersweetness of 2000s emo for many listeners.
Hailing from New York, Matchbook Romance were a band that won popularity with a sound that balanced lyrical melody and aggression.
This track, presented on their debut album “Stories and Alibis,” released in September 2003, is a standout: facing a relationship on the brink, it channels a desperate desire to throw everything away and start over, built around a structure that contrasts quiet and loud with dramatic flair.
The catharsis of the vocals blossoming in the chorus showcases just how strong their songwriting instincts were.
Its inclusion—with video—on the 2004 compilation “Punk-O-Rama Vol.
9” also speaks to the high expectations surrounding them at the time.
A classic that continues to be loved beyond the confines of the emo genre.
PEACESPEED
In Australia’s hardcore scene right now, you could say the most explosive band is Speed.
Their talent is undeniable—just look at how they won an ARIA Award in 2024 for the instant classic ONLY ONE MODE.
They’ve now released the lead single from their EP ALL MY ANGELS, set for October 2025.
The song draws its power from profound grief: the band lost three close friends in the span of 18 months.
From the outset, the pummeling riff and urgent vocals embody hardcore at its purest.
But at the core of the track lies a sense of calm found beyond loss, and a steadfast conviction in unconditional love for their departed friends.
This sound, where fury and serenity coexist, feels like a spiritual weapon for overcoming sorrow.
If you’re looking for a soundtrack to face adversity, this is unquestionably a song to recommend.

A giant whose name is etched into the history of Delta blues, Bukka White.
Influenced by the legendary bluesman Charley Patton and known for guiding B.B.
King, he recorded a song in 1940 that stands as a masterpiece representing Delta blues, laying bare his own harrowing experiences.
Based on his time in a notorious prison, the soul’s cry of a man deprived of freedom comes searingly through in his raspy vocals and fierce slide guitar.
The recordings including this track were later compiled into the album “Parchman Farm.” It’s the perfect song for anyone seeking genuine blues infused with the struggles of life.

This commercial uses cinematic visuals to convey that, by making the most of Amazon Prime, you can get closer to your ideal self and enrich your everyday life.

The song that further accentuates this positive atmosphere is “Past Lives” by BØRNS.
Its structure is striking, with a floating, airy sound gradually joined by a stronger rhythm, and the layered, translucent vocals create a fresh, uplifting feel.

Papa Was a Rollin’ StoneThe Temptations
The Temptations are the chorus group that best represents Motown, the illustrious label that shines in music history.
It’s truly remarkable how, despite repeated lineup changes, they’ve continued to release hits in every era.
The track featured here was released in September 1972 and reached No.
1 on the U.S.
charts.
It was originally a song by another group, but the renowned producer Norman Whitfield reconstructed it with a psychedelic sound.
The lyrics—asking a mother about a deceased father—are heartrending and urgent, perfectly matching the unsettling atmosphere of the piece, which opens with a long instrumental passage.
It even went on to win three Grammy Awards.
Included on the album All Directions, this deep, cool classic is perfect for nights when you want to fully immerse yourself in music.
