Lorde's interest in monarchs inspired this 2013 anthem, as well as her stage name.

Queen's 'Killer Queen' isn't about an actual queen, but a high-class call girl but, hey, we couldn't not have Queen on this list.
2. Coldplay- Viva la Vida
This song's title means 'long live life' and was inspired by a Frida Kahlo painting. The lyrics tell the story of a king who loses his kingdom as his people turn on him.
1. Abba- Dancing Queen
No surprise there really, is there?! Abba's 'Dancing Queen' is probably the most famous song with a royal title, and an absolute classic karaoke track.
