Can you guys think of any titles that have charted as both an artist and a song?

 

Examples:

 

'All Time Low'

 

Song: by The Wanted

Artist: had a #63 hit with 'Lost In Stereo'

 

'Barbra Streisand'

 

Song: by Duck Sauce

Artist: had numerous hits

 

What other ones can you guys come up with? ;o

There are plenty more examples if you include all songs with an artist's name in the title. I'm assuming Bray was only looking for examples where the artist's name was the full tittle.

Let's try and make some chains ;o

 

The Mitchell Brothers - Michael Jackson

Michael Jackson - Jam

[The] Jam - various

 

Can't continue that chain as The Jam don't have any hits that are the names of artists.

Abut they do, they do. As long as one half of a double a-side counts.

 

The Jam - A Town Called Malice / Precious

Precious - three top 40 hits in 1999/2000 :D
