Song Titles

[Firestorm]

Following on from the confusion caused by the three songs with the same title in the Candy Girl thread. I was thinking about Favourite Original song titles

mine is : I'd Rather have a bottle in front of me than a Frontal Lobotomy by Randy Hanzlick

[Uncle Leo]

Many a favourite from the cannon of The Smiths/Morrissey:

Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others
We Hate It When Our Friends Become Successful
The World Is Full Of Crashing Bores
That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore

 

[MK Shrimper]

Sufjan Stevens seems to specialise in this...for example...

A Short Reprise for Mary Todd, who went insane, but not without reason.

To The Workers Of The Rock River Valley Region, I Have An Idea Concerning Your Predicament, And It Involves An Inner Tube, Bath Mats, And 21 Able-Bodied Men

and the shorter: Casimir Pulaski Day.

 

[MK Shrimper]

Flaming Lips: Approaching Pavonis Mons By Balloon (Utopia Planitia)

I can't see that being covered by Boyzone....

 

[Aberdeen Shrimper]

"The Man who sold the World"

Very well covered by Nirvana.........but originally by IMO the best and most inspirational British solo artist of our generation.....

Cough cough......

I think that you will find that the Original is by far the best....obviously

 

[Firestorm]

Half Man Half Biscuit had a few as well

All I want for Christmas is a Dukla Prague away kit

 

[Aberdeen Shrimper]

Not bad for a 56 year old......who was just about to have a heart attack

Ozy, you're dangerously close to neg rep there! Nirvana were and are OUTSTANDING and Nevermind is one of the top 10 albums of all time ever.

Anyone see the old lady of 65 odd singing "We're having a Gang Bang" on X Factor last Saturday? Definitely an original title and about the only time I've ever heard it sung as a proper "song" rather than a drunken chorus!

Fortunately not, but isn't that Black Lace? All the way from "Rita, Sue and Bob too", a film that makes me want to jump straight in the shower and scrub myself clean.

A song written for a certain goalkeeper as a ball flies over his tiny head and into the back of the net:

[Firestorm]

Gordon is a moron- jilted john

Hate to be picky but the title of the song was actually Jilted john (by Jilted John)

Jilted John is better known as Graham Fellows (who also did the character John Shuttleworth)

According to wiki two follow ups were released by under the name Gordon the Moron, an album called True love stories and a spin off single by Julie and Gordon
