[edit] Huh?

How is this the secondary page and some band named AFTER the song the primary? The S 18:40, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

It can appear confusing, as the disambiguation conventions do not equate primary meaning with original meaning. If you take a look at WP:DAB#Primary_topic you will note that primary means "much more used than any other". So Death Cab for Cutie the band becomes the primary topic because editors believe that it is the meaning much more used than any other, even if it was not the original use of the term. --Paul Erik 03:52, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

(Scratches head) Hmm... but I'm from the state in which the band was formed, and I've never heard of it. I thought everybody had heard of the song... whatever. The S 02:36, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
