A compilation of Western songs with titles starting with 'P'

In this article, I’ll be introducing classic Western songs whose titles start with the letter “P.” When you think of English words that begin with “P,” terms like “Peace,” “Party,” and “Picture” come to mind—some of you might already be thinking of a few songs just from seeing those words.

I don’t think many of us have had the chance to specifically seek out and listen only to songs that start with a particular letter.

But looking at them this way might help you discover tracks you didn’t know or lead to new findings.

I’d be delighted if this becomes an opportunity for you to encounter some new music.

A roundup of Western songs with titles starting with “P” (331–340)

Jimi Hendrix, a guitarist whose name is etched in rock history and who influenced countless musicians.

Despite his short career, an abundance of songs, performances, and anecdotes continue to be passed down.

With a musical style that fused blues and rock ’n’ roll, he is considered one of the originators of hard rock, and his intentionally overdriven, powerful sound is a major part of his appeal.

While keeping traditional blues in mind, he forged a new path, making him an indispensable musician in the story of the guitar.

Joey Pecoraro, who hails from Detroit, not only composes but also produces music.

While Detroit is also known as a mecca for techno, his 2018 release Music for Happiness follows old-school hip-hop techniques and is colored by a charming, almost childlike sound.

He has been heavily influenced by fellow Detroit legend J Dilla, and he says that when composing, he makes a point of carefully considering the roots of each and every sound source he uses.

Judas Priest’s song “Panic Attack” brilliantly captures the chaotic state of contemporary society.

Just hearing the intro, with its unmistakably British, flowing guitar phrases, is enough to set many hearts racing.

The sound is heavy yet melodic, and Rob Halford’s powerful vocals ride atop it to sing of the world’s anxieties and fears.

In an era rife with political turmoil and misinformation, the song offers a sharp critique of a reality where justice and truth are under threat.

The band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2022, but their spirit of adventure, showcased on Invincible Shield, seems not to have waned—in fact, it has grown ever more refined.

Precisely because we live in tumultuous times, the presence of veteran rockers who continue to deliver such hard-hitting messages is invaluable.

Now is the time to listen to their music, which sounds a resonant alarm for the soul.

Police And ThievesJunior Murvin

“Police and Thieves,” a signature song by Jamaican reggae artist Junior Murvin, was released in 1977.

The track portrays the conflict between the police and street gangs, and is notable for Murvin’s plaintive falsetto vocals.

Its socially conscious lyrics and distinctive rhythm resonate deeply.

For that reason, it’s recommended for those who long for peace and hope for the renewal of society.

The song is also well known for its cover by the British punk band The Clash, making it a standout that drew attention beyond the boundaries of reggae.

Experience the appeal of reggae through the music of Junior Murvin.
