I was listening to Talulah Gosh in the car this morning and got to thinking about songs which are named after the band who plays them. Talulah Gosh had a song called Talulah Gosh, but I can only think of one other off the top of my head which is Slowdive by, of course, Slowdive.

In both instances it's a genuine song where the name of the band features in the lyrics, as opposed to something abstract which they decided to name after themselves. Can anyone come up with any other examples of this?

I can think of two off the top of my head:

Bad Company
Black Sabbath

This will give me something to think about during my afternoon's digging.

And a third which may or may not qualify:

Ian Dury & The Blockheads - Blockheads

And

Madness

And:

Motorhead
Iron Maiden

Big Country - In A Big Country?

The Monkees?

I was looking for purely identical titles - I'd ruled out "God Save The Queen" by Queen for example, and I think the official title of the Monkees song is "(Theme From) The Monkees". Saying that, In A Big Country does seem to fit the spirit if not the letter of the "rules"!

I wonder what usually comes first - the band name or the song? Slowdive was the band's first single...

Here's another nearly:

Public Image Ltd - Public Image

Now you've got me going. Here's some for starters.........though some are a bit obscure....

Electric Wizard
English Evenings
Gong - Gong Song
Groundhogs - Groundhog and Groundhog Blues (does that count?)

Bad Company
and Free had an album called Free, including a song called Free Me but that don't count does it?

Oy I already did Bad Company. Nice to see another selection from Starless that I've never heard of.

The only thing I thought of after my initial inspiration was

Angelic Upstarts - I'm An Upstart.

Don't think it counts though

Just trawled up another one from my yoof.

Southern Death Cult.

oops, sorry dr

It's ok I'm over it. Another almost,

Stray Cats - Stray Cat Strut

I'm sure I'll come up with more.........

Damon this is driving me nuts. I can only do it the other way around at the moment - Deacon Blue

And Shakespeare's Sister. I'l try and get back on track.
