[2026] Spring, Thrilling! A Collection of Classic Western Songs to Listen to in Spring

Spring VacationThe Beach Boys

Spring Vacation

When you think of The Beach Boys, you tend to associate them with summer, but they also have songs themed around spring.

There’s a breezy track perfect for a springtime drive on their 2012 reunion album, “That’s Why God Made the Radio.” The way the chorus casually weaves in titles of their past hits like “Good Vibrations” shows their impeccable taste.

Dua Lipa – IDGAF (Official Music Video)

This is a song by Dua Lipa, a British singer-songwriter who is also active as a fashion model.

While the track stands out for its stylish vibe, the lyrics portray a woman pushing away a man who is trying to rekindle their relationship.

It can also be seen as an empowering anthem for women who are struggling to get over a breakup.

The 59th Street Bridge SongSimon&Garfunkel

Simon & Garfunkel – The 59th Street Bridge Song (Audio)

Despite running under two minutes, this song leaves a vivid impression with its timelessly beautiful melody and vocal harmonies, along with a friendly, folky sound—perfect as laid-back springtime holiday background music.

Also known in Japanese as “The 59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin’ Groovy),” this track was released in 1966 by Simon & Garfunkel, the globally beloved folk/folk-rock duo behind numerous classics in music history.

Written and composed by member Paul Simon, the song is also famous for having been covered by many artists and bands after its release.

One notable example is Harpers Bizarre, a popular group in the soft rock genre, who covered the song and made their debut in 1967.

Both versions are great picks for springtime BGM, so be sure to compare them!

Soft Rains of Aprila-ha

A-ha – Soft Rains of April

A track included on a-ha’s second album, famous for “Take On Me.” It has the romantic synth-pop feel characteristic of their early days, but the lyrics are rather suggestive.

Even in early spring, when starting a new life can bring a lot of anxiety, a day will surely come when you feel as clear and bright as after the rain stops.

In that way, it stirs the listener’s heart and lifts their spirits.
