Daft Punk - Teachers
but there must be a million songs that mention other bands/musicians in the lyrics, so I'm not going to search further... now, a mention of another band/musician in the title of the song, I can't think of anything at the moment... |

LCD Soundsystem - Daft Punk Is Playing At My House
A lot of Fall songs CSS - Let's Make Love And Listen To Death From Above Liars - Tumbling Walls Buried Me In Debris With ESG (okay it uses an ESG sample) |
Gil Scot Heron- The Revolution Will Not Be Televised (Johnny Cash, Engelbert Humperdink, a few others)
Dr. Octagon- I'm Destructive (def leppard, Van Halen, Grateful Dead) |
Sleater Kinney- I wanna be yr Joey Ramone (Thurston Moore in 2nd chorus)
Clash- 1977. No elvis, beatles or the rolling stones. U2- Angel of Harlem- lots. Lady Day, Miles, Coltrane, etc Billy Bragg- Levi Stubb's Tears "James Brown is Dead" Dead Milkmen- Punk Rock Girl. Mojo Nixon Minutemen- Bob Dylan Wrote Propoganda Songs, Political Song for Michael Jackson to Sing Eminem- "Will Smith don't have to cuss in his songs/But I do." Public Enemy- "Elvis was a hero." |
One of the most immediately obvious is Unseen Powers of the Picket Fence by Pavement. The chorus consists of "R.E.M!" and SM opens the song by saying something along the lines of "There's a lot of bands i've name dropped, but one we haven't done yet is R.E.M." whole song is about REM.

Every song by the Game mentions Dr. Dre Dr. Dre - Let Me Ride (Aerosmith) |
