[atfc village]

Ossie's dream [Spurs are on their way to Wembley ] 1981 Tottenham Tottenham 1982 Glory Glory Man Utd 1983 and Oh Millwall 1994 all cup final songs ,not bands but hits all the same.

Talk Talk ,Talk Talk.

 

[Spun Cuppa]

As the title asks about songs about artists themselves, I reckon the whole of Springsteen's Tunnel of Love is autobiographical about the disintegration of his marriage to the model whose name escapes me

 

[Bevendean Hillbilly]

Every time the adverts come on its "who killed the Zutons" by the Zutons. I'm not buying it on principle

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

That guy off That's Life wrote a song about himself.

 

[Seagull kimchi]

I'll start with Motörhead - Motörhead
Anti nowhere League - We are the League.

Don't want to be pedantic here but I will....Lemmy wrote Motorhead (the song) when he was with Hawkwind - He then got kicked out of Hawkwind and formed Motorhead and took the song with him.

I guess it's just a chicken/egg scenario - but in truth they do perform an eponymous song.

Natural Life - Natural Life

 

[Pogue Mahone]

Natural Life - Natural Life

Natural Life - Natural Life

Natural Life - Natural Life.

 

[Brovion]

Macc Lads: Ay oop we're the Macc Lads (to the tune of Hey Hey we're the Monkees)
Mott the Hoople: All the way from Memphis
Beatles: Ballad of John and Yoko (Well, it''s about one of them)
Mammas and the Pappas: Creeque Alley

 

[BN9 BHA]

Madness-Madness :guitar:

They call it Madness!
Sorry had to add that!

And when he formed the band he wanted to call it 'Bast***s' but his manager said he'd never be able to ge them on TOTP with that name, so he changed it to Motörhead. I understand their manager rose to the occasion and got them on TOTP.

Anyway,
Lords of the New Church with the self titled song, 'Lords of the New Church'. Hey!

 

[Godstar]

Can i have LCD Soundsystem with North American Scum?

Likewise Phil Collins with "Face Value"

Natural Life - Natural Life.

I was orally pleasuring a lady once and said 'I love you Sharon' while at it, and she said to me, 'That's nice, saying it twice...' and I said, 'I only said it once...'


*think echo

Were you in a tunnel? I suppose you were, now I come to think about it.

 

[unklbrian]

Chairmen Of The Board - Chairman Of The Board ?

 

[Bevendean Hillbilly]

Pig Bag: Poppas got a brand new pig bag.

 

[m20gull]

I think all of Kid Rock's songs are about him

 

[red star portslade]

Natural Life - Natural Life.

Natural Life - Natural Life

 

[Goldstone Rapper]

Any chance of someone starting a 'Bands that have sung songs about natural life' thread?
