huh, I had you pegged for the Kinks' "Lola".

:wacko: Don't get me started on that song!!! Freshman year of college, I was fast asleep in my dorm room. Since it was my first semester, I hadn't grasped the fact that you could (and should) schedule discussion groups later in the day. My dumb azz signed up for the Thursday 8am discussion in one of my English classes. So I'm awoken to "L O L A LOOOOOLAAAA"... over and over. The drunk fools 2 levels below me don't know the rest of the song, so they're playing that crap over and over and over. I went down in my boxers and told them to shut the F up. I love me some sleep.

I gotta say, the first song that came to mind, and a very underrated song, IMO, is Sara Smile by Hall and Oats. It's literally the only song I like by them, but it's just a great song. There are others though, Im sure.

 

I can think of 3 GREAT songs that all have Maggie in them:

 

Maggie Mae (Beatles)

Maggie May (Rod Stewart)

Maggie's Farm (Dylan)

I love Allison by Elvis Costello that has been mentioned. I also Like Jane by Jefferson Starship. The vocals are very strong in that tune
