Van Morrison - These Dreams of You (Ray Charles)
Bon Jovi - It's My Life (Frank Sinatra)

AC/DC- Let There Be Rock

That one song by kid rock where he just lists a shitload bands he listened to

Probably the most meta example because one of the shout-outs ("I like Sham (69)") was taken from a song by the other shout out ("Cockney Rejects are the world's greatest band"), who they also took the main riff from

>Van Morrison - Jackie Wilson Said (I'm In Heaven When You Smile)
I've always wanted someone to make a song called Van Morrison Said Jackie Wilson Said...

NoFX - "We Got Two Jealous Agains" & NoFX - "I Got One Jealous Again, Again" are about Mike's record collection with his wife (and their subsequent divorce, when the record collection was split back up into two). Both songs focus mostly on the individual albums.

It's a great tune though and it was directed at the Austin punk scene who turned their nose up to the more arty punk bands (I like Joy Division and Public Image too, even though it's not what I'm supposed to do)

David Allen Coe- You Never Even Called Me By My Name
