The Illustrated Book of Songs

They say that whatever you're going through in life, Aretha has
probably recorded a song about it. Well, it's not just Aretha. Just
been dumped? Roy Orbison has the song to get you through.
Furious about the state of the world? Patti Smith knows how you
feel.
The Illustrated Book of Songs is a collection of lists about the
music that makes up the soundtrack to our lives, featuring hundreds
of songs, old and new, famous and not-so-famous. With
intriguing trivia, idle musings and cool illustrations of your favourite
performers and songs.
