Top 10 Best Songs With a Person's Name in the Title
-
Hey Jude - The Beatles
My favorite Beatles song!
-
Layla - Derek and the Dominos
Patti Boyd must have been 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.
-
Eleanor Rigby - The Beatles
Paul McCartney at his best.
-
Roxanne - The Police
-
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 classic songs.
-
Angie - The Rolling Stones
One of the all-time great classic songs. Should be in the top three.
-
Billie Jean - Michael Jackson
-
Mrs. Robinson - Simon and Garfunkel
Dammit! How did I forget this!

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.
