Rock songs only!
So Tarabull and I were chatting over the weekend and for some reason started thinking of all the rock songs we knew that have a person's first name in the title. (I totally kicked her arse) How many can you name?

Sounds like an upcoming Underground Railroad theme to me.....

Yes, there are tons, and you started off with the gayest Boston song there is? And who the hell sings "mindy"? Barry Manilow's brother?

You gotta name the whole title, not just the name.

I just did an internet search, should I just post a few at a time and pretend my memory is brilliant or should I post all 250 of them at once and be a dick and kill the thread?

By the way, Alison, by elvis Costello is pretty good, especially if you have ever been in love with an Alison

I meant Air Supply songs, as a possible explanation why none of their love songs have girl names in them.
