Okay, so today I was thinking, “What are some songs with ‘sugar’ in the title?” I got this idea out of nowhere and thought it would be fun to really dig into it. So I started off by just brainstorming, you know, whatever came to my mind.

First thing I did was open up my browser and type in something like “popular songs with sugar.” The search engine gave me a bunch of results, but they were all mixed up – some lists, some random articles. I skimmed through a couple and jotted down a few songs that popped up, like “Watermelon Sugar” by Harry Styles. Yeah, that one’s a real banger, super catchy.
Then I decided to get a little more organized. I grabbed a notebook and started making a list. I wanted to include some classics, but also some newer stuff. So, I went back to the search engine and looked specifically for different genres. Found this one article talking about “Sugar” by Maroon 5, saying it’s a mix of disco, funk-pop, and soul. Sounds interesting, right? I added that to my list.
I also stumbled upon some “best songs of the year” lists. One of them mentioned a duet by Elton John and Britney Spears called “Hold Me Closer”. Apparently, it was a huge hit, charting high on the Billboard Hot 100. I guess people were really excited about a Britney comeback. I don’t really listen to her much but I noted it down anyway.

- “Sugar” – Maroon 5
- “Hold Me Closer” – Elton John and Britney Spears
After that, I kinda went down a rabbit hole. I started looking up songs from different decades. I saw some mentions of oldies like “American Pie” by Don McLean and ’70s hits like “Coconut” by Harry Nilsson. I didn’t know those songs had “sugar” in the title. I realized there are probably tons of songs out there that I’ve never even heard of, so I wanted to be more thorough. I started checking out different music platforms, reading comments, and seeing what other people were recommending.
My Final List
I ended up with a pretty decent list. Some songs were obvious choices, others were total surprises. It was fun to see the variety of music that uses “sugar” in the title. Some are about love, some are about other stuff, but they all share that sweet word in common. It’s not a super long list, but it’s got a good mix of different styles and eras. Maybe I’ll keep adding to it as I discover more. I think I’ll turn this into a playlist or something later.
