[2026] A Collection of Classic Western Songs About the Wind (71–80)
Surfin’ USAThe Beach Boys
The Beach Boys, the pioneers of male vocal groups like the Backstreet Boys and One Direction.
“Surfin’ U.S.A.” is a classic of surf rock that evokes California’s sunny skies and vast ocean, and it’s also the song that made them break through.
It’s been played in all kinds of media around the world, so even after all these years since its release, it’s one of those timeless hits that everyone has heard.
The crisp, sun-drenched guitar strums a bluesy intro, and just hearing it transports you straight to the California coast.
It’s a classic you’ll want to play when you want to feel summer!
These DreamsHeart
This song might seem like a somewhat unexpected choice, but anyone who knows it will understand.
Even though they’re a rock band, this track became a massive hit and catapulted them to the top.
It showcases that quintessential ’80s band vibe, which, if anything, feels refreshing.
Open ArmsJourney
This is a famous song released in 1982 by the American rock band Journey, which climbed to No.
2 on the Billboard charts.
Known in Japan by the title “Tsubasa o Hirogete” (“Spread Your Wings”), the song was also used as the theme for the Japanese film Umizaru.
It’s a ballad notable for the vocalist’s soaring, sustained high notes.

Brazillian RhymeEarth, Wind & Fire
A blissful Earth track with a Brazilian flavor, woven together by electric piano and outstanding choral work.
The rhythm section is tight—Verdine White’s bass, in particular, is superb.
The percussion is exquisite, and everything feels almost divine.
Don’t CryASIA
It’s a song that can hype you up from the intro alone.
It’s an old track from the ’80s, so if you like AOR from that era you’ll be absolutely pumped, but people used to more modern sounds might find it dated.
Even so, there’s no doubt it’s a classic—so try listening to it while watching the sunrise.
Blowing In The WindBob Dylan
When it comes to timeless coming-of-age songs in Western music loved by people of all ages, isn’t Bob Dylan’s classic “Blowin’ in the Wind” the one that comes to mind? The gentle tone of the acoustic guitar and the nostalgic sound of the blues harp make it perfect for listening to while being caressed by the soft winds of May.
HeavenBryan Adams
A love song with the lyrics, “The two of us have been through a lot, but now we’re together.” Brian’s husky vocals are incredibly sexy, making it a perfect track to send to your significant other.
I imagine many couples have listened to this song together.
It’s a classic.
It even reached No.
1 in the U.S.
