100 Best Songs with a Girl's Name in the Title - Part 3 of 5

The other day I was looking at an album that had several songs with a girl's name in the title. Then I started thinking of some others 'Girl's Name Songs" and decided to compile a list of my favorites - there are hundreds of them! Shrinking the list is proving to be quite a challenge, so I'm going to limit it to 100. This is Part 3 of 5.

Scroll to the bottom for a Spotify playlist featuring the songs listed in this series.  - Bret
