I absolutely love violins, but most of the times they are used in classical music, and i only like very few classical pieces (here is an example of what i do like), so most of the songs with violin in it that i like are more... "modern".
it can be any kind of music, ranging from rock with violins (golden earring) to pop songs that are covered on a violin. even dance music if you know any.

a couple of songs that i like
john miles - music

golden earring - just a little bit of peace in my heart

mark & clark band - worn down piano (the instrumental middle part is really good here)

guns n roses - november rain (cant leave this intro out, one of the best intros in rock imo)

sori1004jy - still loving you (electronic violin cover of the rock ballad still loving you by scorpions, which also happens to be one of my favourite songs)

sori1004jy - may it be (another sori1004jy cover)

sori1004jy - can you feel the love tonight (sori is really good, and she played so many good songs)
if you want to listen to more of her covers you can check out this youtube channel

ofcourse i cant leave out my favourite lindsey stirling song

alan parsons project - old and wise (my favourite song, altho it doesnt have that much violin, but still a really good song overall.)

another one of my favourite songs, it doesnt really use real violins but sure sounds like it.
a_hisa - anhedonia

and the final one im putting in this OP, the marmalade - reflections of my life
woops, i think i went a bit overboard there with the amount of songs :P
so, do you have any songs in particular with a violin that you like?

Here's one of my favorites from a video game. It uses a wide variety of instruments, but the violin really sticks out.



This is the title music of Zelda: Wind Waker. The violin comes in around 30 seconds, and again around 1:30.

Old but good song c:

Glass

^violin starts at 0:45 but it's quite repetitive until around 3:00


^this one has not as much emphasis on the violin except at around 1:52 and at the end

I really love MuryokuP's music because of his additional use of violin and piano (they're my fave musical instruments alongside with the drums). So here's some:

and


this whole album is worth listening if you don't mind listening to Vocaloid the vocals is Luka so it's worth a shot haha, less high-pitched compared to Miku

some SCANDAL songs but the violin is barely heard tho and it's in the middle of the song
