A collection of Western songs with titles starting with “L”
When it comes to songs with titles that start with “L,” do any come to mind for you?
People don’t usually pay attention to the first letter of a song title, so it might not be easy to think of examples right away.
That said, when it comes to English words starting with “L,” there’s “Love,” and just that alone probably accounts for hundreds of songs.
There are also plenty of other words that seem likely to appear in song titles, like “Last,” “Lady,” and “Little.”
In this article, I’ll introduce lots of songs with titles that start with “L,” regardless of era or genre.
By searching for music from a perspective you may not have considered before, you might discover some new tracks.

Revived after 40 years, the songs retain their catchy melodies and powerful choral work while being updated with a contemporary sonic palette.
