I think the CD Ophelia by Natalie Merchant is from the character Ophelia from Hamlet. And the song "I Think Too Much" by Paul Simon kind of reflects some of Hamlets soliloquys. Can you name any others?

Thom Yorke said:
"I saw the Zeffirelli version when I was 13 and I cried my eyes out, because I couldn't understand why, the morning after they shagged, they didn't just run away. The song is written for two people who should run away before all the bad stuff starts. A personal song."

The Cardigans with their song "Love Fool" from the early 1990's version of Romeo and Juliet.

Garbage does that tune from Romeo and Juliet called "#1 Crush"... Has a REALLY cool, brooding bass line...
