So,I guess "Say Hello To Heaven" qualifies?

I guess Bad Company's song "Shooting Star" could qualify? It's a homage to musicians like Jimi, Janis and others who overdosed.

Unsure how this was not mentioned yet. It's a bona fide classic, and it was written in response to Neil Young.

Frank Black had two on his solo debut:
This one is about The Ramones
This one is about John Denver
And of course there's the Jim Carroll Band's ode to Patti Smith
Never masters of sublety, the Replacements made it pretty clear who this song was about
