Ooh,

At the beginning of KISS's mega-anthem 'Detroit Rock City", there's the sound of someone getting into a truck and driving and they put the radio on and KISS's "Rock n Roll All Nite" is heard playing on the truck radio.

Also, does Razamanazz by Nazareth kind of count? (See also the live album "It's Snazz)

'Church of Hawkwind' an album by...Hawkwind.

"Night of the Hawks" a song and EP by...er..Hawkwind.

Saxon - Back In 79

Saxon - Denim and Leather

Gong - How to stay alive

Deep Purple - Smoke on the Water


I'm sure there's some Neil Young self mythologising, but can't think of the song titles right now

And virtually every rap artist, or rap-ist.
"Yo, Yo." / "Eh." / "Ooooh!!!" / "It's [stupid nickname]. Mmm. Uh-Huh." / [Verse. Or barrage of words that don't fit the music] / "Shout out to [daft autotuned cow]. Sing it girl. Uh. Go girl. Huh." / [Wailing female sings chorus] / [Repeat ad nauseam]"

Speaking of complete shit, Adam And The Ants - Ant Rap
Oh and I dunno if anyone's said Captain Sensible - Wot. Does Militant Feminist Dream count for "Black Sheep boys?"
