"Song for Whoever" is a song by English music group the Beautiful South, written by band members Paul Heaton and David Rotheray. The first and highest-charting single from their debut album, Welcome to the Beautiful South, it peaked at number two on the UK Singles Chart in July 1989 and was certified Silver by the British Phonographic Industry. Considered typical of the band's gently subversive, self-reflexive signature style, it is sung from the point of view of a cynical songwriter who romances women solely to get material for love songs.

  • Song for Whoever is een nummer van de Britse band The Beautiful South uit 1989. Het is de derde single van hun debuutalbum . "Song for Whoever" is een satire over de popindustrie. Het gaat over een cynische singer-songwriter die relaties aangaat met vrouwen omdat hij inspiratie nodig heeft om liefdesliedje te schrijven. Het nummer werd een hit op de Britse eilanden, en in het Duitse en Nederlandse taalgebied. Het haalde de 18e positie in het Verenigd Koninkrijk. In Nederland bleef het nummer echter steken op de 17e positie in de Top 40. De Vlaamse Radio 2 Top 30 werd wel nog net gehaald, daar haalde het de 30e positie. (nl)
