Just a little heads up; you misspelled "Communication: on the title. I think narration is more of what you're asking for.[:)]are you looking for songs that have the word communication in them or songs that have narration or a narrative dialogue in them?
Human League-Empire State Human
Will Powers-Dancing for success
Stan Ridgeway-The Big Heat

I'm jes sayin'

You would be referring to Will Powers - Adventures In Success

Actually, the entire LP can be classified in the narrative dialogue category
