Band name in-joke

[edit]

The last paragraph reads like this: The band's name is likely a tongue-in-cheek, play on words joke of how similar the guitar line in the song "Stairway to Heaven" by the band Led Zeppelin sounds to that of the much lesser known song "Taurus" by the band Spirit. Songwriting credit and royalties for "Stairway to Heaven" have never been given to the members of Spirit. Meanwhile, "Stairway to Heaven" has become one of the most popular songs ever recorded. Hence, the joke "Taurus Version 2", in reference to "Stairway to Heaven".[1]

I'm sorry, but it makes no sense. How is Led Zep and Spirit related to tv2? Please clarify. --Soren84 (talk) 08:50, 12 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It's absolute nonsense. The name TV-2 has nothing to do with the Spirit song "Taurus". ThisOtherDude (talk) 13:03, 25 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The band name tv-2 is not short for "Taurus version 2" - se the danish version about the band for the explanation of the bands name. --Jesper Bøtker Mortensen (talk) 15:08, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
