A collection of Western songs with titles that start with “W”

There are also words like “Walk,” “Wonder,” and “Word,” which all sound like they could appear in song titles.

Walking On The Milky WayOrchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark
This song, with the grand title “Walking on the Milky Way,” is a synth-pop masterpiece released in 1996 by Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, a leading force in the UK electronic music scene.
As Andy McCluskey himself has called it one of his finest works, it brilliantly fuses an expansive, string-laden sound with elements of baroque pop.
Included on the album Universal, it reached No.
17 on the UK Singles Chart, yet at the time it suffered the misfortune of being rejected by BBC Radio 1 for being “not trendy.” Even so, the performance with a full orchestra on BBC’s Top of the Pops remains legendary.
Wrapped in a cosmic sense of scale and a beautiful melody, it’s the perfect track to listen to while gazing up at the Tanabata night sky.
Went Legit FreestyleYungeen Ace
Yungeen Ace, a U.S.-born rapper who transforms harrowing experiences into music, has a past that includes miraculously surviving eight gunshot wounds in a 2018 shooting.
In June 2025, he released a new freestyle.
Borrowing the beat from a G Herbo track, the piece lays bare his tumultuous life and raw street experiences.
He also touches on past rivalries and his own growth, resulting in a work that showcases his musical maturity.
Given his proven talent on tracks like Opps (certified Gold with JayDaYoungan) and the album Life of Betrayal 2x, this release is not to be missed.
It’s a must-listen for those who resonate with his soul-baring expression.
WHEN I’M WITH YOU feat. TylaLiSA
This is a collaborative track by Risa and Tyra that beautifully captures the moment your heart is swept away by a summer romance.
It portrays the feelings of a woman who wants to dive into a new love even if it means ignoring her friends’ warnings, expressed through a lo-fi R&B sound and minimal electric piano accompaniment.
The song was released in February 2025 as part of Risa’s solo debut album, “Alter Ego,” followed by a music video in May that lit up poolside and party scenes.
The lyrics convey the sense of becoming a better version of yourself through love, and the desire to stay together even at the cost of your pride, making it a perfect track for summer drives or trips with friends.
Walk AwayXavier Rudd
A heartfelt ballad by Australian multi-instrumentalist Xavier Rudd.
Rudd is a singer-songwriter who plays a wide range of instruments, including the didgeridoo and slide guitar, and is known for infusing his music with social messages about environmental issues and Indigenous rights.
This track opens his 2018 album Storm Boy and sings of finding the courage to let go of past attachments and pain and to walk one’s own path.
Produced by UK producer Chris Bond, its polished sound beautifully blends elements of folk, reggae, and blues, making it a perfect song for relaxing by the seaside.
Wake Me Up When September EndsGreen Day
A gem of a Green Day ballad themed around love for a father and the pain of loss.
It’s based on Billie Joe Armstrong’s real experience of losing his father at the age of ten, and the title comes from what the boy, shut away in his room, said to his mother.
Beginning with delicate acoustic guitar arpeggios and gradually building into a grand arrangement, the structure is a masterpiece that expresses the passage of time and the healing process through music.
Released in June 2005 as the fourth single from the album American Idiot, it peaked at No.
6 on the Billboard Hot 100.
It’s a song I’d recommend to anyone who has lost someone dear or is facing a turning point in life.

This song, which sings of unwavering love for a cherished person and a longing for home, is a gem of a collaboration between Korean singer-songwriter/producer Shaun and British singer-songwriter Conor Maynard.
Remixed by Dutch DJ Sam Feldt, it warmly portrays a bond of love that never fades despite change, set to the soothing rhythms of tropical house.
Released in December 2018, this bilingual track—blending Korean and English lyrics—evokes cross-border emotion and deeply resonates with couples in long-distance relationships and those living far from their hometowns.
WHY (feat. Luke Combs)Jon Bellion
A multi-talented artist from New York State, Jon Bellion, released a collaborative track featuring country star Luke Combs in May 2025.
Written just 48 hours before the birth of his first child, the song is a candid ballad about Bellion’s anxieties and love as he prepares for fatherhood, and it’s slated to be included on the album “FATHER FIGURE.” Its profound lyrics explore the fear and conflict of loving, while the sound—starting with folk-tinged acoustics and gradually swelling into something grand—are truly beautiful, resulting in a masterpiece where Bellion’s and Combs’s distinct musical styles blend seamlessly.
