Those Lengthy Song Titles...

[Rubbeet921]

I've been listening to THe Smiths' "Strangeways Here We Come" album and started scratching my head at those unbelievably long titles of songs, ie:

> There is a Light that never goes out
> Last Night I dreamt that somebody loves me
> A Rush and a Push and the land is ours
> Stop me if you think you've heard this one before

Then I checked Morrissey's album "Bona Drag" and found 2 more:

> Such a little thing makes such a big difference
> The last of the famous international playboys

Plus one of his latest songs "THe more you ignore me the closer I get"... etc., etc.

Now, who can match that??? [:0] [:0] So why don't you guys think of other lengthy song titles from other bands/artists you know?- minimum 8 words!!! [:D]

I just remembered AFOS "THe more you live the more you love"...

I think "I Wanna Wanna Wanna Wanna Wanna Wanna Wanna Get Rid of You" by Psycotic Pineapple (sic) is somewhere at the top of that list.

Happy Flowers' titles are always long and hilarious, even better if you get a chance to listen to them. They usually write songs from the point of view of a kid:

Why Didn't You Tell Me You Were Bringing Home a Baby

I Ate Something Out of the Medicin

[ExRat]

Kirsty MacColl's - "There's A Guy Who Works Down The Chip Shop Swears He's Elvis" is probably one of the longest song titles I can think of.

Bow Wow Wow's - "See Jungle! See Jungle! Go Join You Gang, Yeah! City All Over, Go Ape Crazy!" is probably the
