    Songs about something

    Let's set the parameters right away: songs about something, but what that something is, is not specified, at least not in the song title.

    The Beatles - Something
    Frank & Nancy Sinatra - Something Stupid
    Phil Collins - Something Happened On the Way To Heaven
    Kids In the Kitchen - Something That You Said
    Rufus feat. Chaka Khan - Tell Me Something Good
    Utah Saints - Something Good

    I'm not familiar with the one by Gilbert, but i assume it's not the same, as the latter is an instrumental.

    It's not. The subject matter of Gilbert's tune is kind of unique; I don't know all of the lyrics and I haven't heard it in a while but basically, he figures out that his girlfriend wasn't a "keeper" because she was not nice to his dog. I think I would've come to the same conclusion.

    Tom Petty has a song with the same title.... The Alan Parsons Project's song "Prime time" also includes that line.
