The Guardian’s CultureVulture blog posts a weekly poser to music fans, based on a theme. This week’s theme is ’songs about fame and celebrity’. Since this is now a weekly pursuit at hsHQ we thought we’d raise a flag to see if you wanted to join in the fun.

Here’s our ten of the best…

Rock Me Amadaeus - Falco
Chelsea Hotel - Leonard Cohen
New Age - Velvet Underground
You’re So Vain - Carly Simon
Terry Waite Sez - The Fall
Range Life - Pavement
Starpower - Sonic Youth
Pablo Picasso - The Modern Lovers
Andy Warhol - David Bowie
Bela Lugosi’s Dead - Bauhaus

Can you do better? Go see.

Well go on then…
