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!

Singer-songwriter Bryan Adams, whose husky vocals resonate deeply with listeners.

This is a gem of a ballad that represents the early days of his career, said to have been written when he was just 18.

The song’s theme is a straightforward desire to convey genuine love exactly as it is.

It opens with a gentle piano line and gradually layers in a full band sound, offering the kind of dramatic progression unique to rock ballads.

Released as a single from the classic album “Cuts Like a Knife” in February 1983, it became his first Top 10 hit in the United States.

It’s also known as the theme for the Brazilian TV drama “Guerra dos Sexos.” A timeless classic you’ll want to hear when you wish to express your true feelings to someone special.

This is a exhilarating number by the British band Ian Dury and the Blockheads, led by Ian Dury—often dubbed the poet of punk.

Released in November 1980 as a single from the album Laughter, it offers a unique perspective: what if a well-known hero had an older sister who was even stronger than he is? The lyrics depict even Superman, who can solve any problem, becoming timid in front of his sister, playfully overturning old stereotypes.

The rich sound—grounded in funk and pub rock and bolstered by strings—is another highlight.

Coupled with the anecdote that it was the label’s 100th commemorative single, the song radiates a sense of playfulness.

It’s a perfect track for anyone who admires strong women or wants a refreshing boost.

Sister Oh SisterRodney Crowell

Rodney Crowell is a towering figure in country music—a great singer-songwriter who boasts a combined total of 15 No.

1 hits between his own recordings and songs he’s written for others.

Known primarily as a lyricist and composer, he has provided songs to many artists.

This particular work, co-written with poet Mary Karr, appears on the album “KIN: Songs by Mary Karr & Rodney Crowell,” released in June 2012.

Inspired by Karr’s memoir, the song drew attention for its lyrics expressing gratitude to the sister who supported her through a difficult childhood.

The fact that Crowell’s ex-wife, Rosanne Cash, performs the song further deepens the theme of family bonds.

If you have a sister yourself, listening while reflecting on your own memories may make it all the more moving.
