Name the song and the person you think it's about. If it's been revealed by her post a link to where she said it or at least a general reference so we can find it, if you know. 

There have been some songs I have felt are about certain people, but I don't know if they actually are. Like...

 

Impressive Instant - Rocco

"Impressive Instant is about that magical moment when you see somebody and everything goes wooossh. Its lyrics are as hypnotic as the beat." ICON-35
(In other words, it's most probably about Guy. Rocco wasn't born when she recorded II, and I highly doubt she would whisper "kiss me" to her unborn son)

"A stripper in a topless bar inspired me to write "Love Tried To Welcome Me". I felt sorry for her and made up her interior dialogue." Icon-22

Nothing Really Matters was inspired by Lourdes.

Jimmy Jimmy is about Jimmy Dean

take a bow was supposedly about Warren Beatty

Forbidden Love (Bedtime Stories) about Tupac (so is Honesty & I'd rather be your lover)

This used to be my playground : Martin or Keith imo, i've always thought it is about her clubbing downtown era with her friends whodied fromaids related complications

Causing a commotion : her and Sean (possesive love, just a dream, Supernatural is about the last days of their marriage when sean would just pop out home now and then...the "at least you're not obsessed with your hair" as Sean was rumoured to be obsessed with his in a Vanity Fair article

Rescue Me: tony ward ?

Guy is all over Music , Hard Candy (especially the outtakes) and Mdna

Brahim is all over Rebel Heart

Shoo bee doo was supposedly about Marilyn Monroe

I just found this topic and found this entry perplexing. How exactly is this song about Rocco??

You're the one that I've been waiting for
I don't even know your name

She's wanted a boy child and he hasn't been born, so she doesn't know what his name is yet. 

Cosmic systems intertwine
Astral bodies drip like wine
All of nature ebbs and flows
Comets shoot across the sky
Can't explain the reasons why
This is how creation goes

She talks about the creation of a life. We are all made of star stuff. The amazing things that have to align for a life to be created. 

I like to singy singy singy
(Like a bird) On a wingy wingy wingy
I like to rhumba rhumba rhumba
Dance to a samba samba samba

Seems pretty childlike. 

 

Also, just in general the song is rambunctious like a boy child. Little Star is soft and sensual like feminine energy. Impressive Instant is loud and bouncing like young masculine energy. Just look at Rocco in IGTTYAS.

Also, Madonna refers to Lola in her song as a "Little Star". There are also synth noises that sound like falling stars on the track. In Impressive Instant, she talks of Comets shooting across the sky.
