A compilation of Western songs with titles that start with 'S'

When it comes to songs with titles that start with “S,” do any come to mind?

We don’t usually pay attention to the first letter of a song title, so it might not be easy to think of examples right away.

However, there are plenty of English words that start with “S,” like “Start,” “Shake,” “Season,” and “Save.”

In this article, I’ll introduce many songs with titles beginning with “S,” regardless of era or genre.

You might discover something new by grouping songs in a way you haven’t considered before!

Compilation of Western songs with titles starting with 'S' (491–500)

SpainChick Corea

A masterful performance by American jazz giant Chick Corea, where Spanish passion and wistful melancholy intersect.

It opens with the lush melody of Joaquín Rodrigo’s Concierto de Aranjuez and then pivots into a dynamic Afro-Cuban rhythm—simply breathtaking in its architecture.

The piece was included on Return to Forever’s 1972 album Light as a Feather and went on to win the 1973 Grammy Award for Best Instrumental Arrangement.

In the version with lyrics by Al Jarreau, tender memories of love in Spain are sung with rich emotion, capturing the listener’s heart.

Embraced by MRT Miyazaki Broadcasting’s news program and a 2007 beverage commercial, this timeless crossover sound is perfect for moments of wanderlust or when you want to spark your creativity.

James Marriott, a Swiss-born creator who’s also active as a YouTuber and is currently based in the UK, released this track in June 2025.

It serves as the final single from his album “Don’t Tell The Dog,” which was released the same month, and it has also been issued as an EP.

He describes his sound as “emotional pop, dramatic alternative rock, and a bit bitey,” and while rooted in indie rock, it breaks new ground.

The official music video surpassed 240,000 views just four days after release, and the team reportedly spent over two hours filming at a bowling alley—testament to their attention to detail.

It’s a track you’ll want to hear if you’re seeking stirring melodies and striking visuals.

La Dispute, formed in Grand Rapids, Michigan in 2004, build on a post-hardcore foundation while unfolding a multilayered sound that weaves in spoken word, emo, and even hints of jazz and blues.

Their 2008 debut album, Somewhere at the Bottom of the River Between Vega and Altair, left a vivid mark on the scene with its profound, folklore-inspired poetic worldview.

They went on to craft introspective and dramatic works such as Wildlife, an album that tells stories based on true events, and the acclaimed Rooms of the House, which reflects the members’ lived experiences; the latter was included in Paste’s 50 Best Albums of 2014.

Jordan Dreyer’s vocals—ranging from spoken narration to soul-baring shouts—and the band’s literary lyrics resonate deeply with listeners who seek delicate emotional nuance amid intensity, or who want to immerse themselves in music rich with narrative.

Hailing from Memphis, Tennessee, rapper LUKAH has been drawing attention for his underground artistry and narrative flair.

This track, his collaboration with Grammy-winning Atlanta icon Killer Mike and renowned Boston producer Statik Selektah, was released as a single in June 2025 and is also included on the album A Lost Language Found, which dropped the same month.

Over Statik Selektah’s heavyweight beat, the two MCs deliver a powerful tribute to the South and its forgotten histories—this is, quite literally, the voice of the South.

As a cut from an album built around the grand theme of reviving the South’s lost cultural language, it’s especially recommended for listeners who want to dig into hip-hop’s deeper layers.

A dream-come-true collaboration has arrived.

This work brings together a truly star-studded trio: Marshmello, the American DJ/producer; Ellie Goulding, the beloved singer-songwriter from the UK; and Avaiyon, a young talent emerging from Germany.

It opens with Ellie’s crystal-clear vocals and gradually rises into a grand house beat woven by the deft production of Marshmello and Avaiyon, a progression that powerfully grips the listener’s heart.

Released in June 2025, it’s a gem of a track that, just as Marshmello put it, blends the liberating spirit of summer with a bittersweet emotion.

It’s no surprise it earned “the best reaction to an unreleased song” at his March 2025 live show—its quality says it all.
