So, Sex Pistols, God Save The Queen (Prince Charming/Queen..royalty link)
PiL - Rise (When the pistols had split jon lydon went on to form public image)
FALLING IN REVERSE - The Drug In Me Is You (From 'Rise' to 'Fall', and PiL sounds like 'Pill' if you just say it like that, so how about 'Falling In Reverse - The Drug In Me Is You'? Fits with both bits)

GOLDFINGER - 99 Red Balloons (MCR desolation row was in the Watchmen movie. It was a cover of a track by bob Dylan. 99 red balloons was also in watchmen. Leads us nicely to 99 red balloons, by Goldfinger)
CHRIS CORNELL - You Know My Name (Gold Finger is also a Bond film, so how about a theme song. Chris Cornell You Know My Name is a good one - Rich Coventry. 'Lion-heart' Ian Webb - Since Goldfinger is the name of a Bond film, how about playing a song from another Bond film in the form of "You Know My Name" by Chris Cornell.)
GOOD CHARLOTTE - Lifestyles Of The Rich And Famous (You know my name was the theme to Casino Royale - Casinos and Royalty (in my mind at least) = Monte Carlo, on the french riveria, is a playground for the rich and famous so how about Good Charlotte - Lifestyles of the rich and famous?)

Morello also recorded guitars with country legend Johnny Cash during his late career with American Recordings, which was released on Unearthed, and Cash famously covered this NIN song…and one more reason is that there is a truly SHOCKING version of this song in the charts at the moment in the run up to Xmas by bloomin LEONA LEWIS. OI! Miss Lewis..leave good songs alone. Thanks, Miss Perry)
GREEN DAY - Jesus Of Suburbia (Nine Inch Nails and Green Day both played Woodstock '94 and Mike Dirnt had some teeth knocked out, that had to hurt! So maybe some Green Day? And Trent Reznor worked a lot with Marilyn Manson who covered Personal Jesus..hence the link!)
