Seeing as we haven't had one of these type topics in awhile...
 
I just happened to hear a couple of songs today where both bands got their names from those songs (Bad Company and Talk Talk) and it made me ponder about how many others there were.  You always hear those stories where a band has a good song but no name so when they get up on stage to play the song they get called the same name as the song (this happened to Madness for example).
 
Here's the initial list I could think of, does anyone have others?
 
Bad Company
Talk Talk
Madness
Icehouse
Black Sabbath
Iron Maiden
Motorhead
Damn Yankees
Kool & The Gang
Green Day

Take that as a compliment 'cos you're up against some stiff competition round here.

 
Oh, and ..........annoyingly pedantic trivia section.....
 
Talk Talk were actually named from a song by a different band ....

Lamest?  *Pfft...*  I doubt I'm even in the top 40!

Widowmaker (Dee Snider's post TS band)

Can I be pedantic and say that Motorhead was a song written for Hawkwind and thus doesn't qualify?
 
 
No?
 
 
Ok then...

Hawkwind... Haven't heard that name in awhile.

Hawkwind was named after Motorhead?  Boy, this is getting confusing now...
 
(Would "Pedantic" be a good band name?)
