"Sweet Caroline" - Neil Diamond, for Princess Caroline.

I was just thinking of that! Those lyrics seem to be written for her. I love that song, besides, its played at Red Sox games, so it's just a great song anyway! I think of Princess Caroline everytime I hear it.

"Your So Vain" for Princess Michael of Kent

That song is so perfect it is not even funny!!!!

When Mexico Was A Monarchy With Carlota And Maximiliano, The People Dedicate A Song For Her: "adios Mama Carlota". And A Italian Singer Dedicated A Song To Queen Paola, I Dont Remember This Name, I Belive That Is "dulce Paola", I Am Sorry, I Dont Remember The Complete Name Of This Song. So As Elton John Dedicate "candle In The Wind" To Princess Diana.

Woman by John Lennon for Princess Diana.

There's a rather lovely song, which I tend to sing rather loudly after too many Port and Lemons, called "Liasons" which is from the score of "A Little Night Music" and mentions both the King of the Belgians and the Duke of Ferrara. After a minute of script, here's Regina Resnik singing it. Truly spine-tingling and definately one for the drunks among you;

YouTube - Regina Resnik - Liaisons from A Little Night Music

 

[GlitteringTiaras]

"Your So Vain" for Princess Michael of Kent

That's just wrong... wrong I say!

Metallica "Nothing Else Matters" -Charles and Camilla

You do know what that song is about, right? It's not exactly a happy one.


My choice:
Flashing Lights by Kanye West could apply to all royals around the world.

Ohhhh...I love that song! Isn't it sung by the former members of Jodeci?

 

[cdm]

I read that Sweet Caroline by Neil Diamond was played at the pre-wedding ball of Princess Caroline of Monaco and Philippe Junot. So that song reminds me of her.
And I still get wet eyes when I hear Elton John's 1997 version of Candle in the Wind.

'La vida es un carnaval' can be sung by Maxima, she seems to radiate just that and is latin, like the great Celia (who sung it originally).

Oh yes, I totally agree! "La vida es un carnaval" is for Máxima!!!

For Princess Mary of Denmark : "She" by Elvis Costello:

She may be the face I can't forget
The trace of pleasure or regret
May be my treasure or the price I have to pay
She may be the song the summer sings
May be the chill the autumn brings
May be a hundred different things
Within the measure of a day

She may be the beauty or the beast
May be the famine or the feast
May turn each day into a heaven or a hell
She may be the mirror of my dreams
The smile reflected in a stream
She may not be what she may seem inside her shell

She who always seems so happy in a crowd
Whose eyes can be so crowded and so proud
No one's allowed to see them when they cry
She may be the love that cannot hope to last
May come to me from shadows of the past
But I'll remember till the day I die

She may be the reason I survive
The why and wherefore I'm alive
The one I'll care for through the rough in many years
Me, I'll take her laughter and her tears
And make them all my souvenirs
For where she goes I've got to be
The meaning of my life is she
She
She
