Random Theme: Songs Named After Girls
The next name is Tracy, and I assume he's referring to The Cufflinks song of the same name. I don't care for that one, so, I'm going to skip it. That brings us to Jean. I was looking for "Norma Jean Riley" by Diamond Rio, but there's not good version of it available to post here. I can't think of any other Jean songs. On to Jane then...

Jane is a somewhat common name for song titles, especially if you include variations on the name. Then you're opening the door for "Mary Jane's Last Dance" by Tom Petty, "Mary Jane" by Mary J. Blige, "Looking for my Mary Jane" by Charlie Daniels, and other similarly named songs. Of course, not all of those types of songs are actually referring to a girl named Jane. I digress.
I picked this song because I don't have one of this group's tunes in my blog, yet. It's also a good song. The singer, I've been told by many people, sounds just as good live as he does on recordings, and that's a plus. Just to take a look, here are some other songs named after someone named Jane. Also, Maroon 5 cut an entire album entitled Songs About Jane, and she must've been a real bitch, because none of those songs said anything nice about her at all.
"Jane" by Jefferson Starship
"Jane Says" by Jane's Addiction
"Sweet Jane" by Cowboy Junkies
"Sweet Jane" by Velvet Underground
"Daisy Jane" by America
"Lady Jane" by The Rolling Stones
