To the Works Of The Rockford Rivery Valley Reigon, I have an Idea Concering Your Predicament, and it involves shoe string, a lavendar garland, and twelve strong women - Sufjan Stevens

I just looked and that's not even the longest one on the album.

Everyone keeps throwing in these long fucking titles. It's discriminating!

Let's see.

Hot Dog - Limp Bizkit

I think it's more the combination of band name and song title that does it.

nescience · « **Reply #6 on:** 08 Feb 2006, 11:15 »

My two favorite song titlers have always been Minus the Bear and the Fucking Champs. Their song titles aren't ridiculous in a long way, but in context they are quite funny.

Minus the Bear:
Hey, Wanna Throw Up? Get me Naked
Lemurs, Man, Lemurs
Just Kickin' it like a Wild Donkey

The Fucking Champs:
Thor is like Immortal
Andres Segovia Interests Me
Some Swords

i totally love all the locust song titles because they are all so batshit, but 'earwax halo manufactured for the champion in all of us' is definitely the best song title even they did. it's ridiculous.

Every band that has a song titled "In Too Deep" should be ashamed of themselves. And that is a lot of bands.

My friend wanted to start a band called Wild Monkey Sex and title their first single "Your Mother," just so radio DJs would have to say

"That was Wild Monkey Sex with Your Mother."

"Sometimes a Pony Get's Depressed" is a fairly odd, yet great song name.

aha, thats a good one

but i have a soft spot for

no, one rakey blowjob behind the karaoke room at otakon does not entitle you to a free PSP

but some of the song titles seem like they were just trying to come up with weird names way too hard.

yeah, i know what you mean. any title longer than like ten words long is kinda pushing it. i mean - 'hoobastank made her do it - the rachelle waterman story, tonight on Lifetime' but any time a song takes longer to say than it does to listen to, something is wrong. do you listen to scissor shock, too? that guy blows away every other digi-grind band in the world.

i can send you a couple of his albums, if you want. it's really, really cool. i've really not heard all that much digi-grind so the guys you mentioned mean nothing to me. i come from the baby pinata, breakdancing ronald regan, knife big school.

khar, digi-grind is like cybergrind with far less talent and far more speed. also, high-pitched vocals, ridiculous song tites, and six hundred time changes per minute. it's barely listenable but i like it a lot.
