I actually love it when some of my favorite artists do that. Like Paul Simon did the Father and Daughter song about his little girl and then his son sings on the chorus, or John Lennon doing Beautiful Boy (Darling Boy) for Sean...I love Sean...such a wonderful artist these days.
Shoot, even Sara by Dylan...it's sweet to hear that love coming through. Not necessarily for voyeuristic purposes, but it does show another side of their humaneness. I think.
Thanks for sharing!

I don't even know the songs he was talking about, but I remember reading an interview where Paul McCartney said he was singing to his daughters and his little boy was looking on watching him, so then Paul wrote a song for his son too, because he said he wasn't about to have the boy left out. Of course, we know
Hey Jude was kind of for Julian, going through a difficult time with the break up of his parents, which was also sweet of Paul.
