Songs dealing with non-monogamous relationships

a discography by
Howard A. Landman

This list is broken into several categories, because there were too many different kinds of poly songs. I'm not personally familiar with all the songs below, so if one doesn't fit its category, please let me know. Ideally, send me lyrics so I can put them online and decide myself.

Author, title, and albums are given if known. Links for further information are given where available. Artist links give more information about the artist. Song title links take you to the lyrics. Album links bring up the amazon.com page for the album; you can read reviews, see the full track list, and buy it if you want.

Long-term Poly Relationship Songs

Criteria for inclusion in this list:

There are at least 3 people involved.
At least 2 people know this.
At least one person wants the situation to persist or move ahead in a way that keeps at least 3 people involved, and has all of those people aware of the full situation.

Note that sexual involvement is not a requirement. Thus, we have Sting's "Tea In The Sahara", which has multiple sisters involved with a young man in some unspecified way ("they danced for his pleasure"). Joan Armatrading's "The Weakness In Me" describes a situation where the main partner of the singer is not aware of the situation, but she clearly doesn't like having to "make someone else some kind of an unknowing fool".

Remainder Bin: Cheating & Sleeping Around

Criteria for inclusion in this list:

At least one person wants to have more than one lover in their life.

Most of these songs aren't really poly in the sense that people on the poly email list or the alt.polyamory newsgroup mean it, but some of them do express some of the reasons why people get involved in poly.

???, "Bizarre Love Triangle"
- New Order, Brotherhood

Christine Lavin, "Don't Ever Call Your Sweetheart By His Name"

A basic "someone took my lover away" song, but there's an implication that the three might have tried to make it work before things fell apart, because the three cigarettes are in an ashtray at the same table and "I watched her take him from me".
Patti Smith?, "We Three"
- Patti Smith Group, Easter
"about an assumedly non-consumated love triangle where, although the 3 friends are undoubtedly close and loving, they are not willing to break through that barrier and become intimate with more than the one partner they prefer. Too bad for them." - Anji & Justin

And finally: What, me poly?

These songs are ones that someone thought were poly, but after reading the lyrics I haven't got a clue as to why they thought that.
