A compilation of Western songs with titles starting with 'N'
When it comes to songs with titles that start with “N,” do any come to mind?
We don’t usually pay much attention to the first letter of a song title, so you might not think of one right away.
That said, there are plenty of English words that start with “N,” like “New,” “No,” “Night,” and “Need,” all of which sound like they’d make great song titles.
In this article, I’ll introduce lots of songs with titles that start with “N,” regardless of era or genre.
By exploring music from a perspective you haven’t tried before, you might discover some new favorites.
Compilation of Western songs with titles starting with 'N' (1–10)
no dreadsNEW!DDG, PlaqueBoyMax
Rappers DDG and Plakkboi Max, who are active on YouTube and Twitch, have teamed up for this track, released in October 2025.
Following their previous collaboration, “Pink Dreads,” this second installment is most notable for having been created in real time during a Twitch stream.
Lyrics themed around being high and achieving success intertwine with a heavy bassline and melodic, Auto-Tuned rapping, resulting in a contemporary trap sound.
Though it runs just under two minutes, its catchy hook stands out, making it a track that’s likely to hype up a drive or a party scene.
NO HOOKNEW!JT
JT, a rapper from Miami, Florida.
Known as a former member of City Girls, she has shifted fully into solo work since 2023, showcasing her talent with projects like the mixtape “City Cinderella.” Her new song, released in October 2025, is a diss track crafted in response to her feud with Cardi B.
It features a hookless structure that fires off aggressive verses, with her anger and assertions conveyed directly over a dark, cinematic trap beat.
Even outside the context of the beef, it’s a track I highly recommend to anyone who wants to experience the tension and impact of contemporary hip-hop.
NahNEW!Khalid
R&B singer Khalid, who shot to stardom with his debut album American Teen released in 2017, has returned with his fourth album, After the Sun Goes Down, released in October 2025—an ambitious work that captures his state of mind after publicly embracing his sexuality.
The tracks placed early in the album are dark, cool R&B ballads centered on themes of betrayal and parting.
A strong will to reject others’ expectations and relationships is conveyed alongside minimal, bass-driven production.
The contrast between the polished production and his warm vocals is striking, setting the album’s overall tension in motion.
It’s a track that, throughout, conveys his determination to reclaim his own voice.
Nocturne (Interlude)NEW!Laufey
The instrumental piece included on Icelandic singer-songwriter Laufey’s album “Bewitched,” released in September 2023, is striking for its piano-centered arrangement that cherishes silence and space.
Blending her classical training with a yearning for jazz, the sound is distinctly hers and perfectly suits the long nights of winter.
As a lyricless interlude, it offers listeners time for deep breaths and introspection, helping to organize the album’s overall emotional arc.
It is also featured in the film “A Night at the Symphony: Hollywood Bowl,” which captures her performance with an orchestra at the Hollywood Bowl, allowing the serene live atmosphere to be appreciated on screen.
Highly recommended for winter nights when you want to shut yourself away and engage deeply with music.
NightingaleNEW!Mammal Hands
Mammal Hands, a jazz trio from Norwich, UK, are known for their inventive sound that delivers a rich low end despite a saxophone–piano–drums lineup with no bass.
This track, included on their album “Gift from the Trees” released in March 2023, was recorded at a studio in the Welsh mountains over two sessions in winter and spring, deliberately capturing the atmosphere of the changing seasons in its sound.
The saxophone’s melody is adorned with delicate trills and vibrato like birdsong, while also carrying a warmth reminiscent of folk violin.
Built on minimalist, repetitive patterns, the piece evokes a serene, introspective world—an ideal listen for a quiet winter night alone.
No Heartbreak’s Killed Me YetJulia Michaels
Julia Michaels, the singer-songwriter also known for crafting hits for artists like Justin Bieber, has a stellar track record behind the scenes.
Now, she’s taken a new step as an artist by launching her own label.
Following her EP “Second Self,” she released this work in September 2025.
It’s an indie-pop track that sings of resilience—refusing to be defeated by past heartbreak—featuring warm, nostalgic guitar tones.
The song carries a presence reminiscent of classic Fleetwood Mac, showcasing her distinctive expressive style.
It’s the kind of track that gently gives you a push when you’re ready to move on from the past and start walking forward as a renewed version of yourself.
NookieNEW!Limp Bizkit
Formed in Florida in 1994, Limp Bizkit is a leading act of the nu metal scene, blending rap with heavy guitar sounds.
After releasing their debut album Three Dollar Bill, Y’all in 1997, they shot into the mainstream with Significant Other in 1999 and Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water in 2000.
Fred Durst’s aggressive rap vocals and Wes Borland’s eccentric visuals and inventive guitar work left a lasting impression.
The band earned high acclaim, including three Grammy nominations, and their performance at Woodstock ’99 remains legendary, sparking both praise and controversy.
After a hiatus, they resumed activity in 2009 and released the album Still Sucks in 2021.
If you want to relive the excitement of that era or experience that aggressive sound once more, this is the band for you.
