Eddie obviously has "Ocean" and also the theme of the ocean/sea.

Listening to some Noel Gallagher and both solo and with Oasis he keeps using the word "sun".

Any other artists that can't get away from a certain word or theme?

    Time is another constant theme with Oasis. Morning Glory, Don't Go Away, Sunday Morning Call, She's Electric all mention something about needing more time. Seems like there are a few others as well lol.

    Songs from the first album by The Donnas:

    "I Don't Wanna Go"
    "We Don't Go"
    "I Don't Want to Go to School"
    "I Don't Wanna Rock 'N' Roll Tonight"

    And of course that's very Ramones. They didn't want to do many things either.

    I've been listening to Public Image Limited a lot lately and noticed Lydon mentions "Finsbury Park" and the "little box" he lived in on various numbers. And of course "bollocks" comes up now and again, haha!

    Oasis is a good one. Michael Stipe from R.E.M. fittingly wrote about sleep and dreams a lot.
