Flower songs in Western music: World-famous and popular songs (61–70)

Daisy JaneAmerica

America – Daisy Jane [w/ lyrics]
Daisy JaneAmerica

This song is one of the hits by the American trio America.

Its Japanese title is “Jane of the Daisies.” The lyrics are about a man who leaves town after breaking up with his lover, singing while thinking of her.

Perhaps his ex-girlfriend Jane had a daisy-like image.

Incidentally, the daisy is said to be Italy’s national flower.

La vie en roseLouis Armstrong

La Vie en rose was originally one of the signature songs of Édith Piaf, the queen of French chanson.

Louis Armstrong—the giant of jazz trumpet and vocals affectionately known as Satchmo—covered it, and his version also became one of his signature songs.

In Japanese, the song is known as “Barairo no Jinsei” (A Rose-Colored Life).

In conclusion

This time, I put together a selection of Western songs with a flower theme.

Even though we just say “flowers,” the musical styles of the tracks varied widely.

That said, there were a ton of songs about roses (lol).

In Japan and abroad, roses really are the classic flower.

On Rug Music, we introduce Western songs built around a variety of themes like this.

We also recommend some lesser-known tracks, so if you’re well-versed in Western music, be sure to check it out!
