Zingin’ Zongs Zat Startz with Z

The Pick A Letter Song Challenge

If you’re going to list some of your favourite songs starting with the same letter, you may as well pick a challenging letter. Kerry Purvis, who started this challenge, already picked Q. So I’m going for Z.

If you want to play along, here’s Kerry’s challenge: Pick one letter from the alphabet and make a list of songs that start with that letter.

The Pick A Letter Song Challenge

And here are some songs I dig that start with the letter Z.

Zealots by Fugees (1996)

“Zealots” opens with a sample from “I Only Have Eyes for You” by the Flamingoes, which is an epic start. Wyclef Jean, Lauryn Hill and Pras all make awesome contributions to this song.
