Song's with other bands name's in the lyrics

How’s about ……… “Everybody have fun tonight“ by Wang Chung.

Everybody have fun tonight
Everybody have fun tonight
Everybody Wang Chung tonight
Everybody have fun tonight
Everybody Wang Chung tonight
Everybody have fun

Sorry. Looks a bit iffy written but quite catchy in the song!
 
Another twofer: in it for the girls by the Fratellis

"She was into the Stones when I was into the Roses"
 
The Byrds and the Airplane did fly,Oh, Ravi Shankar's music made me cry.The Who exploded into fire and light,Hugh Masekela's music was black as night.The Grateful Dead Blew everybody's mind.Jimi Hendrix, baby set the world on fire

 
King Elmore was born
So was Duke Ellington
Jelly Roll made love
Bessie Smith was created in heaven above
Robert Johnson sang the blues
Chick Webb did those things that only he could do
Charlie Christian started a new thing
And, oh my, how Billie Holiday could sing…
Alan Freed rock and rolled
Joe Turner's voice was very low
B.B. King wailed
Charlie Parker cried
Louis Jordan smiled
Ray Charles moaned
Chuck Berry rock and rolled
Fats Domino made me feel good
Elvis Presley did things that no one thought he could

Then came the Beatles, Rolling Stones
Whole new thing was going on
Frank Zappa zapped
Mamas and Papas knew where it was at
They all listened to Ravi Shankar…
Now that we got Jimi Hendrix
We know where we are (and Louis Jordan smiled…)
And the winds of change go on blowing, blowing
Gathering more and more leaves in its path
As time goes past…

 
There’s a Robbie Williams song with a lyric “You’d rather shag a Manic Street Preacher”

Buggered if I can remember which one or even which album it’s off though.
 
Motorhead by Motorhead.
Dr Feelgood by Motley Crue
Roxette by Dr Feelgood
The Look By Roxette
 
Loads of rap/hip hop artists mention other artists in the lyrics. He’s Eminem mentioning a couple on the real slim shady

Will Smith don't gotta cuss in his raps to sell records
Well I do, so **** him and **** you too!
You think I give a damn about a Grammy?
Half of you critics can't even stomach me, let alone stand me
"But Slim, what if you win, wouldn't it be weird?"
Why? So you guys could just lie to get me here?
So you can, sit me here next to Britney Spears?
Yo ****, Christina Aguilera better switch me chairs
So I can sit next to Carson Daly and Fred Durst
And hear 'em argue over who she gave head to first
And this from Gaz Brookfield
 
Seeing TOTP 1978 with Adverts singing...



Half Man Half Biscuit. - Dickie Davies Eyes


'God I could murder a Cadburys Fallen , but then I guess you wouldn't let me into heaven. Or maybe you would 'cos their Adverts promote oral sex'
