The list is going strong and i reckon it's easy to overlook a great song that has been mentioned already. I'll be a bit more careful from now on. A job well done that is still in progress!

night2day Posted November 27, 2011 Report Posted November 27, 2011 Sister Sadie is one word too many. The title must be just the woman's name. Sister Sadie is one word too many but Rita May isn't? Interesting. Incidentally, a good friend of mine who is female, middle name is "Sister."

pinkstones Posted November 27, 2011 Report Posted November 27, 2011 Sister Sadie is one word too many but Rita May isn't? No, because both Rita and May are a woman's name. If you look at the list of songs we've all come up with already, there's more than a few songs with more than one word in the title, but the entire song title is still a woman's name. Like Maggie May, Carrie Anne, Jennifer Juniper, and Peggy Sue. "Sister" isn't a name, even if you do know someone who has it as a middle name. I know a woman whose parents named her Moonflower. That doesn't mean Moonflower is a woman's name. It's two nouns stuck together.
night2day Posted November 27, 2011 Report Posted November 27, 2011 Okay, pinkstones. I finally get that you were right. Heck of a thread though, we both can agree.
pinkstones Posted November 27, 2011 Report Posted November 27, 2011 Absolutely. Clearly naming songs after women is a popular convention, spanning across all genres and eras of music. Great way for musicians to try and get laid.
night2day Posted November 27, 2011 Report Posted November 27, 2011 Comes with the territory i reckon, pink!
