'Him'
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.
Really? The soap opera?
Yes. I don't remember the exact words, but the idea is that the TV's broken, so she can't watch her soap.
There's also an obscure tribute to General Hospital called "General Hospi-tale" by the Afternoon Delights, which had a very brief moment of popularity in the early '80s.
A song that mentions a piece of art (movie, sculpture, poem, whatev.)
There's always the Jonathan Richman hits "Pablo Picasso" and "Vincent Van Gogh".

What song would you play at every birthday party you would ever throw for yourself?
One of two Prince songs (but I can't decide which) -- "Baby, I'm a Star" or "Sexy Motherfucker."
Right Profile -- The Clash (about Montgomery Clift, baby, mentions some of his movies)
It looks like my band is playing in NYC! On Sept. 30 at the 169 Bar.
Aside from playing DC a couple of times this will be our first out-o-town show! I'm very excited.
Cool. Where's the 169 Bar?

"Birthday," the Sugarcubes. Yay early Bjork!
A song that mentions a piece of art (movie, sculpture, poem, whatev.)
The Smithereens song "A Lonely Place" is about the Bogart movie of the same name.
And then of course there's "the old man in/that book by Nabokov" in "Don't Stand So Close to Me."
