Whenever you hear a song you really like that seems to point to a certain celebrity (that may or may not be pleased with the tune), don't you wonder who it's REALLY about? Of course! The first time I remember wildly speculating about who was behind the song was in 1972 with Carly Simon's huge hit 'You're So Vain'. As it turns out, it was about her relationship with actor Warren Beatty. Duh.

Here are some more big songs, who sang them, and, according to MSN Music, who they were actually written about. If you have any plans to date Taylor Swift in the near future, heads up!!
