What are your favorite songs that begin with the letter O? [Final Poll added] See rules in OP

Overkill - Motorhead

Ohio - Dan Deacon

(My favorite version. I get the feeling they didn’t know who they’d invited on, and Dan’s rig goes crazier than usual at the end.)

Oh My Golly! - Pixes

The O-men - Butthole Surfers

I don’t know if O Fortuna is modern enough to skate under the classical music ban, but it does have a name given to it by the composer. If not, I’ll take the hand slap.
O Fortuna - Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra

One of the Survivors - The Kinks
Oklahoma U.S.A - The Kinks
One - U2

Yeah, we’re gonna consider this one classical. Have another go.

One Too Many Mornings - Bob Dylan And Johnny Cash

ETA: I’ll just posit that Oh Mr Peanut has the finest opening words of any song:

Oi, rotten hat - Where’d you get that haircut?
Brent Cross Shopping Centre?
I bet your mother feeds you with a catapult.

(If we still had Alts I was going for Ode To Billie Joe)

Polish the Alt off; your #2 and #3 have already gone.

Darn. Search must baulk at small words.

( I only knew because I was after both of them as well).

Okeydoke, then
Ocean Rouge - Flavien Berger

And if it’s not too much trouble, can I replace Ohio - Dan Deacon with
Okie Dokie - Dan Deacon

Please don’t post alternates, even if spoilerized.

That said, would you like this one included to cover one of your duplicates?

mmm

Done.

Yes thanks, please do add Ode To Billie Joe by Bobby Gentry.
