    Okay, I'll go first, to get you thinking:

    "As long as you love me..." by the Backstreet Boys.

    I don't care WHO YOU ARE, WHERE YOU'RE FROM, WHAT YOU DID, as long as you love me.

    The above noun clauses are all objects of the verb "care."

    The song I like is "Hello" by Lionel Richie.

    You know just what to say..tell you time and time again how much I care......Cause I wonder where you are. And I wonder what you do. Tell me how to win your heart.

      This is a wonderful choice, Diem, with lots of great noun clauses (and reduced clauses too). So right now you are certainly in the lead in this contest.

    My song name is "don't know why". The singer is Norah Jones. I know that I won't win the contest. Congratulations Diem.;)



    I waited till I saw the sign

    I don't know why I didn't come

    I left you by the house of fun

    I don't know why I didn't come

    I don't know why I didn't come

    This song is my favorite team to sing and one of my favorite song.

    Boyzone - No matter what

    No matter what they tell us
    No matter what they do
    No matter what they teach us
    What we believe is true....

    I can't deny what I believe
    I can't be what I'm not
    I know I'll love forever

      This song is nice because it has noun clauses as subject (What we believe) and object (what I believe).
