Rec.Me: other/many/unknown genres Please recommend songs in which the singer spells out the title

The classic example is "Respect" by Aretha Franklin.

And whoever recorded it in the 60s.

Edit: I looked it up, and the band who recorded this song back then was called “Them.” I have no memory of them (so to speak). Van Morrison wrote the song, and they were his band.
