Songs whose titles name an emotion, feeling, mood, or direct emotional expression—from love, happiness, and pride to fear, anger, grief, loneliness, and crying.

Best known: I Love Rock 'n' Roll (Joan Jett & the Blackhearts); Crazy Little Thing Called Love (Queen); Someone You Loved (Lewis Capaldi).

How songs get in

The word has to be right there in the title, and the highlighted part shows why each song is here. Plurals count. A compound word counts only when it splits into real words (the Cow in Cowboy counts as an animal). The same spelling counts even when the meaning changes (a Watch is jewelry). Songs are never exclusive to one theme. Full rules
