Waterford done me, it was between 2.

The Double K.

Ditto

Iā€™ve been asked to contribute 2 rounds to an upcoming music quiz, first is 10 band names taken from movies and the other is 10 band names taken from literature.

So far I have:
Movies:

Duran Duran (Barbarella)
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club (The Wild One)
Save Ferris (Ferris Buellerā€™s Day Off)
Veruca Salt (Willy Wonka)
The Fratellis (The Goonies)

Literature:

Steely Dan (The Naked Lunch)
Boo Radleys (To Kill a Mockingbird)
Eliza Doolittle (Pygmalion)
Aslan (The Lion, The Witch & The Wardrobe)
Uriah Heep (David Copperfield)
The Doors (The Doors of Perception)

Any other suggestions to make up the two rounds of ten welcome.

How would the question be phrased?

Steppenwolf

All about Eve

Thatā€™ll do.

I could give them the 10 names and 10 movies/books and ask them to match them. Obviously wouldnā€™t work for All About Eve.

Modest Mouse is definitely taken from a book. Velvet Underground also but googling it I see it was a book about weird sexual paraphernalia which might create trouble in the event of a tie.

Fratellis: the goonies

Thatā€™s really tough, good idea though

Iā€™m fairly sure the Velvet Underground were named after a book.

They Might Be Giants actually covers both, I believe. Named after a film which took its name from Don Quixote (although thatā€™s quite a hard one).

The Divine Comedy is a more straightforward one.

I think Black Sabbath claim they were named after a film but apparently it might be bullshit.

An interesting round, I like it!

I remember a good round in a music quiz once which was the original names of popular bands

Read what I already posted.

I donā€™t think the actual names of films/books will work if Iā€™m asking people to match them up. It needs to be a character or clear reference to either, I reckon.

Just thought of another but itā€™s very obscure.

Klaatu (The Day The Earth Stood Still)

Missed it, soz
