Double Initials - YY
The penultimate post in this interactive and indeed educational series.
George was quick off the mark suggesting the female rapper Yo Yo and this suggestion was followed up by Dirk with a request for a specific song..
Bit of a conundrum as she appears to be known as Yo-Yo. We have a hyphen situation so not sure if she counts. It's a good song so it is featuring anyway.
Next up is the tag team of Ernie Goggins and Ramone666 with requests for Yabby You the great Jesus dread. Ernie provided the song and Ramone the endorsement. He also turned up fairly recently at Ramone's place.
Rol pitched in with a couple as his want. I've gone with his first choice Younger Younger 28s.
C is clearly too trendy and down with the kids to feature with her suggestion of Years & Years.
First a hyphen now another one for the judging panel. Do treble initials count? They surely must if the Yeah Yeah Yeah's are involved. They throw in another Y in the song title for good measure.
And following Ernie's suggestion for the sake of balance we finish with Yeah Yeah Noh
Next week the final instalment ZZ. Eazzy peazzy. You know what to do.
Yo-Yo - Girl Don't Be No Fool
Yabby You - Blood a Go Run Down King Street
Younger Younger 28s - We're Going Out
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Y Control
Yeah Yeah Noh - Beware the Weakling Lines

Zinedine Zidane. Soundtrack by Mogwai.
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing ZZ Top doesn't count?
ReplyDeleteIf not we're fekked!
DeleteZ.Z. Hill
ReplyDeleteSee my comment above!
DeleteI think I have sent you Ziggy Zaga already. I can also offer Zuider Zee, a 1970s US band. The few tracks I have by them are pretty dreadful, but if needs must...
ReplyDeleteAnd would top Moldovan gypsy punks (and Eurovision stars) Zdob si Zdub count? They bestride this end of the alphabet like a colossus in my humble opinion
There is a band called the Zsa Zsa Gabors, although that doesn't meet your strict criteria. Then again, neither did Yeah Yeah Noh. By the way, my research shows that it is Yp Yo, not Yo-Yo.
ReplyDeleteBy now it must be fairly obvious that I am making up/breaking the rules as I go along!
DeleteA man after my own heart!
DeleteI also found a band called Zzzz on Polyvinyl.
ReplyDeleteAnd a weird instrumental by a group called Zombie Zombie.
The only combo I know is zZz - they had a tune called 'Lucy'!
