'Touched'
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

BTW, random aside - Jon B. was right about Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds' new album DIG! LAZARUS, DIG! - it's really good. Definitely the first one that's gotten my undivided attention on first listen since LET LOVE IN.
I'm surprised no one has suggested "Flower," by Liz Phair.
