Rock Lyrics - Best Reference to Other Rock Group


References to other artists and songs are everywhere, but my two favorites are Steely Dan from "Everything You Did":
Turn up the Eagles the neighbors are listening

and Tears For Fears on "Seeds Of Love":
Kick out the Style bring back the Jam

Anybody got any others?

Of course there is Neil Young in "My my, Hey hey":

"The king is gone but he's not forgotten. This is the story of Johnny Rotten"
Tonio K - "I wish I could be mellow, like for instance Jackson Browne, but Fountain of Sorrows my ***, ****** ******, I hope you wind up in the ground" in "H-A-T-R-E-D"

Steely Dan reference to Aretha Franklin in "Hey Nineteen"

Peter, Paul & Mary - Mamas & Papas, Donovan, Beatles, in "I dig Rock and Roll Music"
Sean - Life in the Foodchain is indeed a great album. Picked it up when it first came out around 1978 (I went and checked the album cover to confirm the date). Finally found a CD version of it about 3 or 4 years ago. Still enjoy listening to it from time to time though usually in the car as my wife doesn't appreciate it as much as I do. Timeless :)
