I read decades ago that Dude looks like a Lady was about Brett Michaels, who REALLY looked like a Lady
Stefani is a goddess that Love could never be
What about “Crying like a bitch” from Godsmack about Nikki Six
Once a Lowellian, always a Lowellian, love Mickey Ward
One of my favorites is you don’t move me by Keith richards
Brother you got a like just for the Gatti vs Ward T-shirt.
After John Lennon wrote “Imagine”, a song essentially proclaiming the greatness of communism, Steely Dan responded with the song, “Only a Fool Would Say That”.
Star fuckers was about Marilyn Manson. Not Courtney Love.
Very well documented and common knowledge. For further proof go watch the starfuckers Incorporated music video.

Let's fucking not. No one gives a fuck
Liar by Megadeth. About their lead guitarist at the time Chris Poland for stealing their gear to sell for drug money.
DLLAL is definitely NOT about Vince Neil.
dude looks like a lady isn't a diss track or us it about Vince Neil. they got the idea of the song because of Vince when they were out somewhere or a show but in no way is it about him or were they dissing him.need to research sometimes
I never knew that Hollaback Girl was about Courtney Love, but I knew about John's and Paul's diss tracks towards each other.
Liar by Megadeth is a pretty good one
Or double talking jive by Guns N Roses
Get in the ring is a direct call-out tbh
Dude looks like a lady isn't a diss track tho it's inspired by Vince if you've read the dirt or the heroin diary's Nikki states either Steven Tyler or one of his band mates were at the same club that motley was at staring at Vince until someone told them he was a dude Aerosmith and Motley Crue are good friends a better song to use would of been Dire Straights "Money for nothing" that's got direct disses towards motley in the lyrics
Has anyone ever told you , you look like a young John Lennon
Sweet home alabama disses Neil Young, and was the first ever song to openly protest a segregationist governor
Stacked Actors is about terrible people in Hollywood and has nothing to do with Courtney love.
BucketHEADJOB needed sumtin' distrax
Don't think Steven Tyler has any room to talk but Vince us a better looking woman.
Steel Panther, I like drugs.
"We got a 21 12 driving 1974 yellow Camero.
Subject looks like a chubby David Lee Roth…..
Scratch that, more like a skinny version of Vince Neal"
Dude Looks Like a Lady is literally about Steven Tyler. The whole song's lyrics are about headed to a club on the shore and someone said Tyler looks like a lady.
Dude looks like a lady is what Mr.T said to Steven Tyler as Tyler got off an elevator at a swank penthouse party.
are you Edward Furlong’s kid ?
That’s a sick shirt bruh
Who knew that rock musicians could be so bitchy
That shirt is epic!!
Courtney love's own father thinks she had Kurt killed. My ex did some interviews with him. Guy hates what she's become. Courtney love is a cunt
Dude looks like a lady is about Dee Snyder you moron
"Peanuts" by The Police was all about how lame Rod Stewart is.
It’s great value wildcat
Cool shirt
How do you sleep is a great fucking song however Paul is my absolute favorite musician of all time. I love a good diss track tho
that shirt thoooooooooooooooooo
Lies all lies
Bro your head is way to big for your body
Steven Tyler was at a party, some bikers pointed at him and said dude looks like a lady. This actually really hurt his feelings so he wrote a song about it. Explanation was needed.
Ether by Nas is about Jayz
Well Courtney Love is certainly NOT loved , I think that's pretty clear
I think my favorite is when John said he got sick and tired of Paul's silly love songs and what was Paul's response?
He wrote a song called Silly love songs that ended up being a huge hit.
Yeah but they all looked like ladies back then it was terrible.
These are really cool, enjoy learning about these. Have you also thought about going the other direction and doing songs that are dedications to people?
For example EMPTY GARDEN by Elton John is a dedication to John Lennon. And you could also say it's a major diss at Chapman who shot him.
Just food for thought, keep up the good.
