Why do they never play Les Savy Fav on the radio - Jetplane Landing (marginally fun song, but only once).

i havent read the thread but the pavement song "unseen power of the picket fence" is an r.e.m. dedicated song...... one of their greatest songs...

Some bands I like to name check,
And one of them is REM,
Classic songs with a long history
Southern boys just like you and me.
R - E - M
Flashback to 1983,
Chronic Town was their first EP
Later on came Reckoning
Finster's art, and titles to match:
South Central Rain, Don't Go Back To Rockville,
Harbourcoat, Pretty Persuasion,
You were born to be a camera,
Time After Time was my least favourite song,
Time After Time was my least favourite song.
The singer, he had long hair
And the drummer he knew restrait.
And the bass man he had all the right moves
And the guitar player was no saint.
So lets go way back to the ancient times
When there were no 50 states,

And on a hill there stands Sherman
Sherman and his mates.
And they're marching through Georgia,
we're marching through Georgia,
we're marching through Georgia
G-G-G-G-Georgia
They're marching through Georgia,
we're marching through Georgia,
marching through Georgia
G-G-G-G-Georgia
and there stands REM

(Aye Sir, Aye Sir, Aye Sir they're coming, Aye Sir, move those wagons, Aye
Sir, Artillery's in place Sir, Aye Sir, Aye Sir, hide it, hide it, Aye

televison personalities- part time punks
irish band giveamanakick in one song has a lyric "you are thurston for a moore"
Sir, run, run.)

Gimme Indie Rock by Sebadoh (VU, Stooges, Pussy Galore, Thurston Moore, Dinosaur, Hüsker Dü, and Sonic Youth.)

I remember hearing "Frank Zappa" on one of the tracks off The Weirdness, but I forget which.

Does anyone else think it's shit to namecheck other bands unless you're hip-hop or Mark E Smith?

hayden, johnny merzbow is actually this fictitious character me and my friend lyrch reference in our respective bands. it comes from an old ruinhorse lyric.. "JOHNNY MERZBOW!@ SCANNER COP!"

however, scissor shock does have a song subtitled "holy shit the olsen twins just joined wolf eyes!"

PAULYBEE already mentioned TV Personalities' Part Time Punks (they'd like to buy the O Level's single [...] but they buy the Lurkers instead [...] but they always got 2.50, to go and see the Clash - tonight).

TVP titled one great album They Could Have Been Bigger than the Beatles.
TVP songs :
Posing at the Roundhouse (I flirted with the idea of creating a t-shirt for the DDN stop there, with some reshuffling of the lyrics, but found it was too much trouble and time) - they mention Billy (Idol).
I Know Where Syd Barrett Lives
Where's Bill Grundy Now? - reference to the Sex Pistols on television.
Sad Mona Lisa - "She likes to go shopping on saturdays, especially to Kensington Market, for acid house records her mother hates, and posters of Morten Harket" (A-Ha singer)
Salvador Dali's Garden Party - lyrics would change if they played live, on the studio version Debbie Harry was there, live Jesus & the Mary Chain were there, Iggy Pop was there, TV Personalities were there and so on.
Evan Doesn't Ring Me Anymore - Evan being Evan Dando.
Goodnight Mr Spaceman - "Oh, the train's gone past my station, oh bloody hell, I wish I'd signed to Creation [...] I've taken three e's but I still can't dance like Bobby Gillespie"

Gainsbourg wrote Beau oui comme Bowie for Isabelle Adjani.

Thee Headcoats - I Hate the Fucking NME (David Bowie, Jarvis Cocker, Sting, Paul Weller, Beck, Rocket From the Crypt, the Clash, Boyzone, Spice Girls, even me in the NME...)

Jonathan Richman recorded a song called Velvet Underground about the group, on a jolly nice record called I, Jonathan.

The Launderettes, from Oslo - WWJJD, What Would Joan Jett Do?

One more from the TVPs, on their new album theres a track called Velvet Underground :
"its the eighth mystery of the world Ive found how did the Velvet Underground get that sound?"
"don't sit under the apple tree with anyone but Lou Reed"

fucking sublime stuff
