List of bands that perform a song with the same name as their band
Name | Song Name | Comments | Submittor Name | |||
C+C Music Factory | Here We Go (Let's Rock 'N' Roll) | The band mentions its name in one line; song appears on their debut album "Gonna Make You Sweat" and was successful in the U.S. | Jeffrey | |||
Candyman | Knockin' Boots | His best known song, from his 1990 album. He mentions his own rap name several times in the song. | nally | |||
Captain Jack | Captain Jack | German band; self-titled song was a hit in many European countries in 1995. | Evan | |||
Carolina Rain | Carolina Rain | Carolina Rain was a contemporary country trio that were together from 2003-2009. The song is from their debut album Weather The Storm. But it's not about the band; it really is about rain in Carolina, the word being in the name of 2 U.S. states. But whether it's North or South Carolina they're talking about isn't specified. | Edward | |||
The Cars | Drive | I consider this to be somewhat of a 'vain' song because "Drive" is what you do with a Car, right? This was one of the band's biggest hits from the 80's (and one of their softer-sounding ones, too), with Ben Orr on lead vocals. | Khodor | |||
Chairmen Of The Board | Chairmen Of The Board | Most of the lyrics were just a repetition of the lyric "Chairmen of the Board". | Alex | |||
Chante Moore | Chante's Got A Man | Debut single from her 1999 album, "This Moment Is Mine." Top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100; almost a top hit on the R&B chart. | Jeffrey | |||
The Chemical Brothers | Dust Up Beats | Released under the name "The Dust Brothers". | All-Starr | |||
Chic | Le Freak | One line which appears frequently throughout the song: "Le Freak, c'est Chic" | Frank | |||
Chic | MMFTCF | It's an abbreviation and it means "Make My Funk The Chic Funk". The last track from their 1992 album. You thought with this title having "MF" in it meant something else, didn't you? | Power Station Fan | |||
Chicago | Take Me Back To Chicago | Appears on their 1985 greatest-hits compilation of the same name, as well as their 1977 album, "Chicago XI". | Cassandra | |||
Chico | It's Chico Time | 'What time is it? It's Chico time'! sang this X-Factor runner-up, provoking David Mitchell (Mark in 'Peep Show') to comment that it was '15 minutes past Chico time!' | Pickle | |||
Children Of Bodom | Lake Bodom | It contains half their band name, but Bodom is kindof a key word here, so I guess it counts. | Travis | |||
Ciara | Oh | Lyric: Ciara got that fire like, 'Oh' | Calvin Amari | |||
The Clash | This Is Radio Clash | Says so right there in the title. | Mike | |||
The Clash | Clash City Rockers | Self-explanatory | Kevin | |||
