The Girl in the Song by Michael Heatley and Frank Hopkinson is a great little volume that explains the true stories behind fifty songs about women. There are songs by the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and Leonard Cohen to name a few.
I found this in Waterstone's on Oxford street in their staff picks area- credit where credit is due and all that.

I'm heading off to Waterstones!! Sounds a great read, thank you for the post...just found your blog and really enjoyed reading it...perfect...I'm a new follower!
That's interesting. I just read a review about a book called 'My boyfriend wrote a book about me'. Could be interesting to read it from the other side of the lens.
Note to self: use 'interesting' much less.
This sounds a fab book (appropriate word for The Beatles!). I have a bok voucher I am saving for something special, perhaps this might be it!
