What is the best song that begins with the letter **P**? See rules in OP

Pass The Dutchie - Musical Youth
Physical - Olivia Newton-John
Poi E - Patea Maori Club
Power Of Love - Huey Lewis and the News
Power Of Love - Frankie Goes To Hollywood
Power Of Love - Jennifer Rush

Lots of great choices already. I predict that the final pick will be difficult as far as I’m concerned.

Purple Rain - Prince
Private Dancer - Tina Turner
Poor Butterfly - Sonny Rollins
Puttin’ On the Ritz - Fred Astaire
Paradise City - Guns N’ Roses

Mancini wrote and conducted, but did not perform this song, so disallowed.

Already submitted in post #3.
@DrDeth, you still have two more entries if you want them.

@WildaBeast is correct, you have one more entry.

mmm

Maybe save this one for the Js?

mmm

Pancho & Lefty – Townes Van Zandt
Peggy Sue – Buddy Holly & the Crickets
Please Please Me – The Beatles
Positively 4th Street – Bob Dylan
Powderfinger – Neil Young

the Poor People of Paris - Winifred Atwell
the Peanut Vendor - Stan Kenton
Paladium - Weather Report
Poinciana - Ahmad Jamal
Park Avenue Beat (aka Perry Mason theme) - The Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra

The recording here is credited to Henry Mancini & His Orchestra.

OK, allowed.

@DrDeth

mmm

BTW, if you like The Peanut Vendor, there’s a group that performed it with a series of increasingly tiny trombones you may enjoy. I’m not recommending that performance over Kenton’s, but it’s entertaining enough to watch.

Paranoid - Black Sabbath

That’s very silly.

(I love it !!)

Pride and Joy - Stevie Ray Vaughan
Pleasure & Pain - The Divinyls
People Who Died - Jim Carroll
Pisces - Jinjer (Slava Ukraini!)
Panama Red - The New Riders of the Purple Sage

Most good ones have been mentioned.

Pocahontas - Neil Young

Poor Boy - Nick Drake

Poor Poor Pitiful Me - Warren Zevon

Police And Thieves - Junior Murvin

Pray For Me - The Jayhawks

An obvious nerd song hasn’t been mentioned–so I’m gonna have to get rid of the only Sesame Street song so far (I think). @Mean_Mr.Mustard, can I replace “The Power of Yet” with “Particle Man,” by They Might Be Giants?

Got it.

mmm

Pretty Please Me - The Dickies

Panama - Van Halen
Painkiller - Judas Priest
P.S I Love You - Beetles

I have to go to work so I’ll have to revisit this again later, but I do have one for now.

Please don’t leave me - Pink

Peaches en Regalia - Frank Zappa
Playin’ in the Band - The Grateful Dead
Problem Child - AC/DC

Paul Revere – Beastie Boys
Photograph – Def Leppard (NOT NICKLEBACK)
Pour Some Sugar on Me – Def Leppard
Paper Planes – M.I.A.
and one to be named later. . .
