R&P: Favorite songs that are tributes to self lovin'?

Question

So, She Bop by Cyndi Lauper is playing on my Last.fm library radio. The catchiest song about masturbation I've ever heard. So I'm just curious, what are your favorite songs about going solo?

BQ: What do you think is worse? Someone who's a genuine poseur and knows nothing about the music he/she pretends to like, or an elitist who constantly rants about how people listen need to listen to "real" music?
BQ2: Favorite live album?
BQ3: Um, I can't think of anything. Oh what the hell? Now playing?

Isn't that what most songs are really about?

"Turning Japanese" - The Vapors
"Dancing With Myself" - Generation X

BQ: I think elitists are poseurs in their own way.
BQ2: Cheap Trick - "Live at Budokan"
BQ3: Weezer - "Surf Wax America"

I Think I'm Turning Japanese-the Vapors  (rumored to be about self love)

BA-  An elitist is more annoying because they don't know what real music is.
BA2- My favorite live album is a tie between R30 by Rush and Grace Under Pressure by Rush.
BA3- Nine in the Afternoon- Panic! At the Disco

Rosie by Jackson Browne

Another great song about masturbation, it describes the band's sound mixer falling in love with a girl he meets at a concert. But the girl ditches him for the drummer, and the unhappy sound mixer goes home alone. But he still has Rosie (Rosie Palm, that is.) "But Rosie, you're alright, you wear my ring. When you hold me tight, Rosie that's my thing. When you turn out the light, I got to hand it to me. Looks like it's me and you again tonight, Rosie."
