Since this Music Monday thing started, I keep thinking about The Police, “Don’t Stand So Close to Me.” This was probably one of the first songs I knew to be related to a book. Was I 10 when it came out? Maybe. Something like that. But it certainly helped that it made reference to “that book by Nabokov.”

More recently, Elefant was also most certainly inspired by the character “Lolita” as well:

When you wear those pretty dresses,
I forget the girl in you …

Am I wrong for loving Lola?
Am I wrong for what I think?
She is such a wicked child
