88 Best Songs With "Gentle" in the Title

Slow Burn Tracks with Gentle in the Name That Still Land a Punch

There’s something odd about hearing the word “gentle in a song title. You expect softness, maybe comfort, maybe something gauzy and harmless. But sometimes it hits different. A track called “Gentle drops and suddenly you’re deep in your own head, spiraling over a voicemail you never answered or a night that never quite recovered after someone said the wrong thing. The word sets you up for ease and then leaves you stuck with whatever’s actually sitting under the surface. These songs don’t all soothe. Some poke. Some circle. Some fade out too soon, which is worse somehow.

You can find it in all corners—pop, rock, country, and R&B songs with “gentle floating somewhere in the title like a warning or an apology. It’s never loud. Even when the beat snaps or the lyrics cut, there’s this unspoken restraint, like the track’s holding back on purpose. There’s power in that. Letting a moment stay small when everything else is trying to be big. Some of these songs feel like a whispered dare. Others feel like the last thing you play before disappearing for a while. It’s the quiet punch that lands right when you thought nothing could.

So if you’re wired, maybe wrecked, or hovering in that foggy middle space that doesn’t have a name, these are the ones to let play. Here are the best songs with gentle in the title that know how to hit without raising their voice.
