Correct on the Carly Simon song. The other one was by Mary Chapin Carpenter. Pretty good sounding song, but it's a very "entitled" song lyrically. She sings about all kinds of very nice things, and why shouldn't she have all these things ?
But you're not doing parodies of other songs, you're doing originals. Right on

I have the music written now for "Please Don't Make Me Watch A Chick Flick". It will be in a traditional 80s power ballad format. I wrote it on my cigar box guitar.
