On the plus side, it'd totally suck if we figured it out two days into the month.

(please don't figure mine out in two days when I post next month)

It’ll be wrong but I’ve at least thought about this one…

Teenage Fanclub - Grand Prix

1. Norman Wisdom: One of the fellas is called Norman
2. Francoise Hardy: Acted in a film called Grand Prix
3. Trainspotting: They’re both Scottish.

Glad I can stop trying to tie Tin Machine II to the other clues other than Raymon Le Blanc publishing Tin Tin and latching on to the 2 tins/2 albums as somehow being something!
