 Radio Birdaman
 
 Niether an actual song title, but a lyric.

Cool thread.  Can't believe these exemplars haven't been mentioned here OR Wikipedia:
 
 Slow Dive, after a Siouxsie and the Banshees song of the same name
 
 Low, after a David Bowie album
 
 Several Species, after a Pink Floyd lyric (but they're a tribute band, so it doesn't really count)
 
 I'll probably think of some others 'cuz I run across them all the time.
