Song: I Wonder Who Is Like This One, by Hello Saferide

Songs Mentioned:
* "Can't Get You Out Of My Head" - Kylie Minogue
Me, I'm like 'Can't Get You Out Of My Head'
Annoying at times, but I make you want to dance


* "Anarchy In The UK" - Sex Pistols
A boy I once knew was 'Anarchy In The UK'
Burned out too quickly, but in such a beautiful way


* "Radio Gaga" - Queen
Old 'Radio Gaga', or your highschool friends
remind you of things, when you were someone else


__
Song: The Art Of Suicide, by Emilie Autumn

Song Mentioned:
* "Gloomy Sunday"
Life is not like 'Gloomy Sunday'
With a second ending
When the people are disturbed
Well, they should be disturbed
Because there's a story
That ought to be heard

Mariah Carey - For The Record
Mentioning her own songs:

For the record
You'll always be a part of me(Always Be My Baby)
No matter what you do
And for the record
Can't nobody say
I didn't give my all to you

And for the record
I told you underneath the stars
That you belong to me(We Belong Together)
For the record
It's obvious that
We just can't let go of us, honey

Britney Spears - Inside Out

You're the only one who ever drove me crazy

Lady Gaga - Monster
I wanna Just Dance
But he took me home instead

Kelis - Bossy
I'm the first girl to scream on a track >> Caught Out There
I switched up the beat of the drum
That's right, I brought all the boys to the yard >> Milkshake
And that's right, I'm the one that's tattooed on his arm

The first song on Prince's NewPowerSoul cd (the title track) namechecks every other song on the cd in the correct order as well.

Jay-Z' Bonnie & Clyde namechecks (and samples) Prince's If I Was Your Girlfriend

Salt N Pepa's Shoop namechecks Prince's Sexy MF

Diddy's Coming Home (can't remember the name) is built entirely on three references of old songs (one verse each) Tears Of A Clown, A House Is Not A Home and Ain't No Stopping Us Now and although I hate the song, I do think it is lyrically one of the most cleverly built songs in ages

Madonna - Hung Up

Time goes by so slowly for those who wait
No time to hesitate
Those who run seem to have all the fun

:D I love this song because of the Mariah nod.
But I like Kim's lines too:
"Tiptronic, Manolo Blahnik Crocodile is what I be in"
is such a mouthful. I like se7en's singing as well.
