Thanks Doug - it was somewhere in the back of my mind that Numan's uncle played drums for him at one stage, but I was concentrating on the titles!

What connects the following bands:

Led Zeppelin
The Rolling Stones
Talking Heads
The Psychedelic Furs

Could be lots of things, so if no-one gets the connection I'm looking for I'll post more examples later.

Their first album had the band name in the title?

Nope. More specific than that.

There's a movie title taken from a song by each of them?

Yep!

Dazed And Confused
Jumpin' Jack Flash
Life During Wartime
Pretty In Pink
Man On The Moon
Strange Days

I also had lined up:

The B52's (Private Idaho - as in "My Own...")
Don McLean (American Pie)
Ben E. King (Stand By Me)
Warren Zevon (Things To Do In Denver When You're Dead)

I was trying to find films that were specifically named after songs, rather than those that just happened to share a name.

Your serve!

Which is the odd one out and why:

The Beatles
The Rolling Stones
The Police
Wings
The Who

Easy. Who.
It's the only band you can put Dr. in front of and make a crap TV show.

...and no...

Odieman · Post by **Odieman** » Tue Sep 21, 2010 2:09 pm

The Police...are the only ones that never changed drummers

robogone · Post by **robogone** » Tue Sep 21, 2010 2:16 pm

Probably true, but that's not it.

I'll expand the list (still only one odd one out):

The Beatles
The Rolling Stones
The Pogues
The Police
Wings
The Who

Hovmod · Post by **Hovmod** » Tue Sep 21, 2010 2:26 pm

Wings is the only one without a "the", but that's a little obvious, perhaps?

Bonteburg · Post by **Bonteburg** » Tue Sep 21, 2010 2:29 pm

Pogues is the only band the members of wich are all still living?

edit: ignore me...

robogone · Post by **robogone** » Tue Sep 21, 2010 2:32 pm

Nope and nope - it's related to a specific song or songs by each of them.

I'll add another to the list:

The Beatles
The Rolling Stones
The Pogues
The Police
Sex Pistols
Wings
The Who
