* "I'll Take Tallulah" - Tommy Dorsey and Music/FrankSinatra
[[/folder]].

* "Maissie" - Syd Barrett

* "Aura Lee and "Lorena" - American Civil War ballads about the singer's sweetheart.

* "Jenny" - Music/WalktheMoon

* Subverted in "Debra" - Music/{{Beck}}. The song's lyrics begin to direct the song towards a woman named ''Jenny'' ("oh girl, I only wanna be down with you") until it's revealed that Beck has a secondary interest: Debra, Jenny's sister ("and your sister, I think her name is Debra"). The track is done in the vein of R. Kelly-like R&B ballads and seems to be one until the hilarious twist of Beck pining for a little more is made apparent.
