This could be a quite short list, but what songs can you think of that name other actual singers or songwriters in the title?
I have come across a handful lately:
Pulp - Bob Lind (The Only Way Is Down)
Jimmy Webb - P.F.Sloan
Bob Evans - Ron Sexsmith
Van Morrison - Jackie Wilson Said
Tears For Fears - Brian Wilson Said
I'm sure I have heard others - just can't think of them at the moment.
Songs like "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes", which is about Judy Collins but does not actually use the name, don't count. The person's name must actually appear in the title.
Of course there are any number of songs that mention "Elvis", but they usually only give the first name, leaving it unclear which Elvis is referred to. :wink:
