a long shot

[Morrisonker]

I'm looking for songs by woman about being with/dating a guy in a band, preferably in a rock stylee, any suggestions?

[epstein]

Not rock stylee I'm afraid,but Superstar by The Carpenters is about Karen's love for a guitarist in a band.

Your So Vain - Carly Simon, which is allegedly about Mick Jagger (who ironically, sings backing vocals on the track).

[Cockney_si]

Sk8ter Boi by Avril Lavigne.

Don't Speak by No Doubt is about the singers relationship with other member(s) of the band.

Does it have to be a woman? The reason I ask is because 'Victims' and 'Karma Chameleon' were written by Boy George about Jon Moss (drummer in Culture Club).

I always thought Carly Simon's song was about Warren Beatty.

Preferably by women and has to be a rock song. It's for a short film a friend is doing about the local music scene in my city and which features my boyfriend amongst others. Positive songs would be good too, it's not all bad being with a singer :) We've got a few songs complaining about when the band go on tour and leave you behind etc.

I'm kinda looking for a song that's about seeing him on stage and stuff, being proud of him and so on. I've got a feeling there is one out there that I'm forgetting about.

'You're So Vain' is rumoured to be about several people ~ the speculation has been going on for years! Warren Beatty is the favourite as Mick sang on the track.

To add to the other suggestions all I can think of is 'You Oughtta Know' by Alanis Morrisette, which isn't a very positive song but great none the less ;o) allegedly written about Matt Le Blanc so if this is true it isn't about a rock star, unfortunately.

I'll get me coat.....
