# It's "Frankie Say", not "Frankie Says"
Frankie [Goes To Hollywood] were a band, not a person.

# You have a point
I'm just cranky after seeing so many "Frankie SayS Relax" shirts while googling for source.

# I think to qualify as a band
You actually need to play your instruments to a reasonable standard rather than, say, getting the Blockheads and the Art of Noise in instead?

# NERD MODE
Frankie goes to hollywood

was a band name taken from a headline - about Frank Sinatra.

If you find an old t-shirt with 'say' instead of 'says', it's a knock-off.

# Right about the name, wrong about the shirt.
Yes, they were named after the headline. But the shirt was a message from the band, not from Mr. Sinatra.

As far as I know, Frank Sinatra never sang with Frankie Goes To Hollywood. Except, perhaps, in the shower.
