Bilingual Bonus: The band's name means "yellow bell" in Mandarin Chinese, which is also the first note in the Chinese classical music scale. Doubles as a Meaningful Name. | |

Myspeld Rökband: The band's name was originally spelled "Huang Chung" as on their debut album, but it was later changed to Wang Chung at the recommendation of their label in order to make the pronunciation easier for English-speakers (and also supposedly because people kept calling them "Hung Chung"). | |
