Songs dedicated to Artist by Artists

I guess it is the ultimate sign of recognition for an artist when a fellow artist makes a song about you. Dylan got two of such dedications. One from Syd Barret, one from David Bowie! This is a quite interesting topic, and here are the songs that I know which are dedicated to an artist. Let me know if you know others too!

Song to Woody - From Bob Dylan to Woody Guthrie



R.A.M.O.N.E.S - From Mötorhead to Ramones


Song For Bob Dylan - From David Bowie to Dylan



Bob Dylan Blues - From Syd Barret to Bob Dylan



Buddy Holly - From Weezer to Buddy Holly


Song to Bobby - From Cat Power to Bob Dylan (Thanks to Thuan for this one)

That doesn't count. I meant explicit dedications. Some say Visions of Johanna is for Joan Baez, I say for Thuan.

my last.fm now (weekly status) has an embarassing amount of 80s music, attributable to your influence
Ahmet C. Toker said…
