                    Plastic Bertrand, 'Ca plane pour moi'. Belgian geezer, I believe. Occasionally mentioned in on-the-spot quizzes when someone asks you to name 10 famous Belgians (and not fictional characters either, so Tintin doesn't count)!!

                    As for this theme, I am stuck. I can think of album names that are the same, e.g. Genesis - Genesis, but song titles... hmm. The best I can come up with is:

                    Devo - Q: Are We Not Men? A: We are Devo!

                          Yep Oggy, Hercule Poirot is Belgian, but falls foul of the 'fictional' rule, like Tintin. The Belgian game usually involves naming 10 famous non-fictional Belgians. People usually get Albert Schweitzer, Eddy Mercx, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Kim Clijsters, even Plastic Bertrand... but people struggle after that, and that's when Tintin or Poirot get mentioned... of course there must be many famous Belgians but people don't remember them.
                          Cheers
