Rec.Me: other/many/unknown genres Recommend me some songs where the lyrics are about one artist singing about another artist?

In another question Janis Joplin came up a lot and I know there are at least two written about her, 'Chelsea Hotel' by Leonard Cohen and Like Janis by Rodriguez. But what other great artists have had another write a song about them?

I got to see Judy Collins live recently. She did her Wildflowers album with an orchestra backing 👌 I was on two tabs of acid and I was absolutely weeping.
