Movie titles aren't the only things to experience bad grammar: musical groups do not seem to be immune either. My friend sends this to me the other night:

"It's All Because Of You" from musical group "xSive".

Nice name. scream Apparently it is pronounced "excessive", but you would never know just by looking at it. I guess it wasn't enough that music leaves much to be desired. This does not leave me much hope for literacy.

I heard about a band named Hear'say, where an apostrophe should not be included. In fact, the author Lynne Truss states that "the naming of Hear’Say in 2001 was [...] a significant milestone on the road to punctuation anarchy."
