88 Lines About 44 Women -- Turkish Tania liked to fuck while wearing leather biker boots.

The only song I know that has my name in it.

You're forgetting Camper Van Beethoven's homage to Patty Hearst called "Tania."

I love Prince and all, but "When Doves cry" came out, my childhood was effectively ruined......i never did cry though....i just got angry!

and although I havent met Spontaneous Poet's mom yet, i gotta sing..."Stacey's mom...has got it going on!"

I only have one song I know of, and though it's about a woman, it ain't bad at all. I used to listen to the Doc Watson version when I was a young'un.

Wake up, wake up, Darling Cory, What makes you sleep so sound?
The revenuers are a-coming, For to tear your still house down.

Dig a hole, Dig a hole in the meadow, Dig a hole in the cold cold ground;
Dig a hole, Dig a hole in the meadow, We're gonna lay Darling Cory down.

The first time I seen Darling Cory, She's lookin' out on the sea,
With her pistols a-hangin' 'round her middle, And a banjo hangin' round her knee.

The next time I seen Darling Cory, She had a wine glass in her hand;
She was drinkin' down that cold poison liquor, With a low-down gamblin' man.

Go 'way, go 'way, Darling Cory, I'll do the best I can.
I'll get me a no drinkin' woman, And you get you another lovin' man.

The last time I seen Darling Cory, Her pistol was in her hand;
She done kilt that revenue officer, What took away her corn liquor man.

Don't you hear them bluebirds singin', Don't you hear that mournful sound,
They're preachin' Cory's funeral, In the lonesome graveyard ground.

Version I knew was by Burl Ives.

there's also:

"Me & Cory" - The Barnabys

ummmm...and...

"Lady Coryell" by ermm...Larry Coryell

But my name is spelled AUDRI and I don't know these songs, so it doesn't affect me!

oh, yeah

"Colin Zeal" - Blur

This kinda thing usually works better for women. I guess it's lonely songwriter guys who feel the need to write songs about ex girlfriends or whatever. I've been able to find songs for every girl I've ever gone out with. Most of them however, have been crap. I don't think I was able to find one for a girl named Jaidine, though.

"Kyle's mom is a big fat bitch

i don't know that i've ever heard a song with jason in it. it'd be pretty hard to rhyme with.

"Jason" - Sufjan Stevens
"Jason & The Argonauts" - XTC
"Jason B. Sad" - Marc Bolan
"Jason's Head" - The Dead Milkmen

and there was a song called "Jason Unpopular" but I can't remember who did it.

No Erin songs that I can think of. My name isn't very songworthy.

That'd be unusual. Squarepusher's "Goodnight Jade" is as close as I can think of.
