I'm drawing a blank. Do songs about loss and obsession qualify?

On the Prince tip:







If I'm going Henley, I guess I should include this one, too:

skulls, yeah, I think they do... great selections btw.

when I listen to music while working I feel like a polished flat stone skipping across a really really quiet, flat lake... each memory touching down just for a few moments... lingering and moving on... when I finish and get up to do the next thing.. and turn the music off... it is as though a ton of time has passed in a blur...

faces, textures, memories, loss, love, lust, funny things, sadnesses... all some rich mixture... probably why we love music beyond just the rhythm.

Really, this one says it all:



Re: "Dancing with Myself." I asked an ex-girlfriend to dance with me for that song at a high school dance. She accepted. Today, I'm married to a woman who is a big Billy Idol fan. What's it all mean, Alfie?

I'm going to go outside the box on this one. The Dave Matthews Band song is easily the dirtiest song I've ever heard.

Another tune about obsession and loss. I feel like a stalker.

This thread makes me realize that I probably didn't listen much to contemporary pop/rock music in the 80's 0r 90's ... With a few exceptions, I hardly know any of these songs.

Part of the fun... if you find some songs that are totally new to you... it is a gift!
