  • Reply with quote
paladisiac's Reagan thread got me thinking...

Which people have had the most songs written about them? Which names have been dropped the most in songs?

Obviously, we'll have exclude Jesus, probably #1 - otherwise country music and hip-hop would send it right to the top.

So?

Is it Martin Luther King Jr?

George Bush?

Reagan? Thatcher? JFK? Elvis?

I'd probably go with Dylan too. Tough one though.
