Songs connected with art

[robertson]

Please can you suggest songs I can put on a CD I'm compiling of songs connected with art / painting / drawing. Some I've thought of myself are: Vincent by Don McLean, My Colouring Book by Dusty Springfield, She Belongs To Me by Bob Dylan, The Red Strokes by Garth Brooks, Colours by Donovan, Paint It Black by The Stones, Art For Arts Sake by 10CC, and Painter Man by Boney M. I'd welcome your thoughts.

Girlfriend by Jonathan Richman begins with the memorable couplet "When I go to the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston/First of all I go to the room where they keep the Cezanne". JR also wrote Pablo Picasso, so he must have had a thing about painters.
There's also Dali's Car by Captain Beefheart.
