I seem to remember George Michael wrote 'Careless Whisper' for a girlfriend who dumped him back in the day.

Why do you whisper green grass,why tell the trees it aint so
Whispering grass don't tell the trees cos the trees don't need to know..

Now don't you tell it to the trees cos they will tell the birds and bees and everyone will know
Cos the trees have said it's so..........

Loved that song when I was younger

When I was in the police force we used to sing Whispering Grass and Paper Doll to kill the boredom when sat in a Battle Taxi waiting for something to kick off. However, the lyrics we sang were not the original lyrics and are far too rude to post on a public forum.

I wonder if I might join in and offer Baba O'Reily as covered by 70s punk rock band Bethnal. Showstopping version of The Who's classic... see what you think...
