Top Ten Songs With a Person's Name in the Title

The Top Ten
1 Hey Jude - The Beatles

My favourite Beatles song!

2 Layla - Derek and the Dominoes

Patti Boyd must have ben quite a woman. Two of the greatest love songs of all time were written about her, Eric Clapton's Layla and George Harrison's Something.

Very good song, but after the guitar part it's always disappointing

3 State of Grace - Reba McEntire
4 Eleanor Rigby - The Beatles

Paul McCartney at his best...

5 Vincent - Don McLean

Don't know why this song was ranked so far down on the list. It was written as a tribute to Vincent Van Gogh with the opening line Starry, Starry Night dedicated to his painting 'The Starry Night'. One of the great classical songs.

6 Angie - The Rolling Stones

One of the all time great classical songs. Should be in the top three.

7 Billie Jean - Michael Jackson
8 Baba O'Riley - The Who
9 Mrs. Robinson - Simon and Garfunkel

Dammit! How did I forget this!

10 Roxanne - The Police
The Contenders
11 Helena - My Chemical Romance

Helena is a really emotional song speaking about the Ways' grandmother Elena who passed on. I like it. It is amazing, and Gerard's voice really does it justice.

12 World Cup Willie - Lonnie Donegan
13 Stan - Eminem

Great song. Also, this list really needs Drew Barrymore by Bryce Vine

14 Brian Wilson - Barenaked Ladies

@PetSounds - There are many songs on this list that mention real persons: Beethoven, Elvis, Uma Thurman, Mick Jagger, Clint Eastwood, Steve McQueen, Jesse James, John and Yoko...

The only song on this list which undoubtedly mentions a real person.

I love this song. No doubt that it should be #1

Really like this song

15 Julia - The Beatles
16 Proud Mary - Creedence Clearwater Revival
17 My Name is Mud - Primus

Yeah! Primus sucks!

18 Hey Joe - The Jimi Hendrix Experience
19 Bubba Shot the Jukebox - Mark Chesnutt
20 I Try to Think About Elvis - Patty Loveless
21 Johnny B Goode - Chuck Berry
22 Romeo and Juliet - Dire Straits
23 Who Do You Think You are Kidding Jurgen Klinsmann? - Tone Def Allstars
24 Sven Sven Sven - Bell & Spurling
25 867-5309 / Jenny - Tommy Tutone
