I've listened to Pink Floyd's album Wish You Were Here recently, and it has Shine on You Crazy Diamond. I liked the song, and I've wondered which songs do people like.

king crimson is a very good band, if you don't mind longer songs I recommend "Starless" and "Epitaph" by them

Araki's music taste is so based that I love most of the jojo reference bands. So I'll go with the top three groups that have the most amount of representation in my playlist, which are Dio, Deep Purple and Whitesnake.

There's way too many to list, Araki got great music taste. My favorites that I discovered through JoJo would be King Crimson and Perfume.

King Crimson, Van Halen, Deep Purple, James Dio, Rainbow, Jimi Hendrix, Foo Fighters, and Green Day are a few of mine. I actually started listening to a lot of these bands because of Jojo so thanks Araki for introducing me to some of my now favorite bands

The Blackmore/Catch the Rainbow pair is great because it not only indirectly references Dio (lead singer and songwriter of Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow) but also because Rainbow made three of my favorite 1970s albums.

I have 2

Aerosmith and KQ queen

I love the band Aerosmith even before I watched Jojo, and there are 2 Aerosmith references with just Narancia and Aerosmith.
1. Dude looks like a lady. Narancia is a dude who looks like a lady
2. Toys in the attic. The stand itself looks like a toy plane.
I also like that it is an airplane and the pilot is Mr. Smith. Aero meaning air and Smith being the pilot.

Killer Queen (4) has 3 Queen references

1. Another one bites the dust. Sick song and sick ability.
2. Sheer Heart Attack. It is the sub stand of KQ and it is also the name of one of Queen’s album.
3. Killer Queen. Killer Queen is a song in the Sheer Heart Attack album.

This one may be pushing it a little, but since Killer Queen is based off Queen and Kira Yoshikage is based off David Bowie, i’d go as far as to say that David Bowie and Queen’s song, Under Pressure, could be a reference to Kira’s not being able to activate Bites the Dust in the last episode due to Koichi and Echoes act 3’s pressure.

My personally favourite is Kira Yoshikage's stand - Killer Queen (because Queen is my favourite band of all time) and than Killer Queen's two abilities - Sheer Heart Attack and Bites the Dust. And I just love that stand at all.
