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

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

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

That said, when it comes to English words starting with “W,” there are interrogatives like “What,” “Where,” and “Who,” and just from those alone, there must be plenty of songs!

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

In this article, I’ll introduce lots of songs with titles that start with “W.”

By searching for music from a perspective you might not have considered before, you may discover new tracks.

The new song released in September 2024 by Amber Mark, an R&B singer-songwriter from the United States, fuses disco and electropop.

Characterized by a Giorgio Moroder-style beat and a strong synthesizer rhythm, it centers on the theme of shaking off the past and embracing freedom.

The track is a single slated for inclusion in her next project, Loosies, and runs about 3 minutes and 40 seconds.

She also performed in Japan in January 2024 and is an artist with high popularity there.

The song Andy Grammer released in June 2024 is a pop track that, while catchy, intricately captures subtle emotions and carries a profound message.

Centered on the pain of heartbreak and self-rediscovery, its lyrics strikingly celebrate the strength to move forward.

Co-written with Sam Ashworth, the song is slated to be performed on his solo acoustic tour, “Greater Than: A One Man Show,” scheduled to begin in September.

It’s a masterpiece that will give courage not only to those who have endured painful breakups, but to anyone standing at a crossroads in life.

WaveAntônio Carlos Jobim

Antonio Carlos Jobim, often called the father of bossa nova, was a composer from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, who also excelled as a pianist, guitarist, singer, and arranger.

He began performing piano in nightclubs and bars in the 1950s, and released “Chega de Saudade” in collaboration with João Gilberto, sparking the bossa nova movement.

In the 1960s he broke through internationally, with the album Getz/Gilberto with Stan Getz winning a Grammy.

“The Girl from Ipanema” remains a beloved classic today.

Jobim’s music drew inspiration from Brazil’s nature and landscapes, and he was active across a wide range of genres including bossa nova and MPB.

His works offer a refined, comfortable listening experience that can be recommended even to those unfamiliar with Brazilian music.

While it’s brimming with Christmas spirit, the song breaks from traditional Christmas tunes with its fresh, distinctive approach.

It carries a message about cherishing intimate moments with a partner, reflecting a modern value system that prioritizes emotional connection over material things.

Blending Ariana Grande’s captivating vocals with R&B elements, it’s a perfect track for the holiday season.

Included on the Christmas EP “Christmas & Chill,” released in December 2015, it was reportedly recorded in just a few days.

Recommended for those looking forward to spending Christmas with a loved one, or anyone seeking a breath of fresh air in their holiday music.

Ariana Grande is a female singer-songwriter who’s always at the forefront of the scene.

Early on, she set herself apart with her high tones, including her whistle register, but lately her downbeat, realistic lyrics have been especially striking.

Among her songs, the one I particularly recommend is “we can’t be friends.” While it’s on the slightly higher side, it doesn’t have an extremely wide vocal range, so you should be able to sing it smoothly if you adjust the key.

It’s a synthwave-style track that doesn’t place heavy emphasis on advanced vocal techniques like runs or hiccups, so definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.
