Bei den Wombats ist das beste Antidepressiva Musik von Joy Division. Dazu getanzt, und die Laune ist wieder happy. CSS gehen mit Death from Above ins Bett (Musik zum Sex ist weit verbreitet), der Sänger der Teenagers würde gerne Starlett Johansson heiraten, Phoenix sehen in Franz Liszt den ersten großen Rockstar der Musikgeschichte und Oma-Hans-Sänger Jens Rachut bedankt sich auf der letzten 7-Inch der Bandgeschichte bei seinem Label und – den Wipers. Lässt man Primal Screams’ »Some Velvet Morning« und Lemonheads’ »Dirty Robot« featuring Kate Moss als netten Versuch von ihr durchgehen, das Mikro selbst mal in die Hand zu nehmen, geht der Hushpuppies-Song ebenfalls an die Adresse einer Musikerin – und an John Lennons’ Rolls Royce (Moss singt übrigens ähnlich schräg wie Nico). Musiker, die über andere Musiker singen. Hier eine Auswahl (weitere Songbeispiele gerne in die Kommentare packen).

I know you’re born in 84
Half polish half danish
You started at 8 on broadway
You’re a starYou don’t believe in monogamy
Im not jealous, scarlett will you marry me
All you’ve got you can like it
But what i am you will love itYou whisper at horses ears
I always found it exciting
I’m scared by spiders too
I never managed to blame youI’ll sell my mum to be lost with you
Lost in tokyo or anywhere else
I wish i’d been invited
At your party in disneyland
Flight of the Chonchords – Bowie
Bowie’s in space
Bowie’s in space
Whatcha doin’ out there man?
That’s pretty freaky, Bowie.
What’s a rock musician doing out in space man?
Isn’t it cold, quite cold out there Bowie?
Do you need my jumper Bowie?
Does the space cold do funny things to your nipples, making them all pointy?
Bowie.
Do you use your pointy nipples as telescopic antennae transmitting data back to Earth?
Data back to Earth d-d-do, d-d-do, do do
I bet you do you freaky old bastard you
Wombats – Let’s dance to Joy Division
So if your ever feeling down,
Grab your purse and take a taxi,
To the darker side of town,
That’s where we’ll be,
And we will wait for you and lead you through the dancefloor,
Up to the D.J booth,
You know what to ask for,
You know what to ask for.Go ask for Joy Division,
And celebrate the irony,
Everything is going wrong,
But we’re so happy,
Let’s dance to joy division,
And raise our glass to the ceiling,
‘Cos this could all go so wrong,
But we’re just so happy,
So happy.
Hushpuppies – Bad taste and gold on the doors
I want my Kate Moss, every day spread on my toast, I want my kate moss !
I want my Rolls Royce, the one in Lennon’s colors, I want my Rolls Royce!
I want my mansion, with playmates to be my toys, I want some action!
I want some marble floors, bad taste and gold on the doors, I want a bell boy!
I want a luxury place that I could ruin and destroy, I want a brand new face!
I want some hard drugs and sick boy to be the nice, I want some hard drugs!
I don’t want any ass, tell me my life is a mess, I just want fame and lust!
