“True Blue” by Madonna (1986)

The “Queen of Pop” wrote the track “True Blue” in the year 1986 about no other than actor Sean Penn, who was her husband during that time. Madonna even said Penn is the “coolest guy in the universe.” She never forgot how he wrote a love letter for her. The letter explained how much appreciation Penn had for the work she did as an artist as he watched Madonna’s performance of the track at a New York show.

“I Will Always Love You” by Dolly Parton (1973)

The superstar Dolly Parton was only 21 years old when the country singer Porter Wagoner discovered her. He had a successful series in 1967 and he gave Parton her own spot on the show. Parton’s fame sky-rocketed as a result. However, seven years later, Parton felt she needed to concentrate on her career, so she decided to leave the show despite the fact that Wagoner definitely preferred she stay. Throughout the years, Parton and Wagoner developed both a strong professional relationship as well as a strong personal one. Ergo, Parton wrote the hit song that has now become a classic. It is about her unfaltering appreciation and the platonic love she has for Wagoner.
