OK, here's the thread for the more inclusive category of songs with lyrics about other bands.

Example:

"Do You Remember Rock and Roll Radio?" by the Ramones:
"Will you remember Jerry Lee, John Lennon, T. Rex.."

"Punky Reggae Party" by Bob Marley:
"Wailers still be there
The Jam, The Dammed, The Clash
Wailers still be there
Dr. Feelgood too, ooh"

Ataris "Song for a mix tape"

today I made you a mix tape
and I decorated it with lots of stars.
it had all my favorite songs.
there was jawbreaker and armchair martain
built to spill and the descendents.
hell I even put one of ours on it.

That Crappy Bowling for Soup Song, something about 1985, now let's never mention them again.

The last song on Travis' first album:

...there's no Devil's Haircut in my mind, there's no Wonderwall to climb

Pavement did a song called "Unseen Power of the Picket Fence" all about R.E.M.

And Gods came out of the speakers that day...

That's the song on the "No Alternative" compilation that is like half about REM and half about the civil war, right?

I heard Mr. Young sign about her.
Heard ole' Neil put her down.
But I hope Neil Young will remember,
A "southern man" don't need him around anyhow.
