The love-song genre has been done to death. Squared. I am beyond bored by them in pop music. I like songs that have some more original subject. A few random samples:
Often the songs that like thematically this way would be classified as ballads, I suppose. Though I think only two of the above would meet that definition.
- Saturday Night Special, by Lynyrd Skynyrd
- Downeaster Alexa, by Bill Joel
- I Don't Like Monday, by Boomtown Rats
- Tale of the Edmund Fitzgerald, by Gordon Lightfoot
- Space Oddity (aka, Major Tom), by David Bowie
- My Name is Luca, by Suzanne Vega
