20 Best Song Titles Ever!

I know it's hard to imagine that these really are the BEST Song Titles Ever beacuse there are simply too many to consider. However, since calling them my "favorites" seemed like a cop out and a list of 20 Really Cool Song Titles hardly says "read me" we're left with superlatives and the understanding that my pool is relatively small and these things are subject to change. Entries run from the ridiculous to the pointed, poetic to profain - a little to my surprise I found myself leaning heavily on the vulgar, so enjoy!

1. “Fucking with Beautiful Posture” Rye Coalition

2. “Grown Men Don’t Fall In The River, Just Like That” Liars

3. “Fa-Fa-Fa-Fa-Fa (Sad Song)” Otis Redding

4. “Stella Was a Diver and She Was Always Down” Interpol

5. “John, I’m Only Dancing” David Bowie

6. “Say Yes! To M!ch!gan” Sufjan Stevens

7. “Mr. You’re on Fire Mr.” Liars

8. “Hello, I Love You” The Doors

9. "Why Don’t We Do It in the Road” Beatles

10.“The Cup is Fierce” Paul Newman

11.“You Enjoy Myself” Phish

12.“If We Can Land a Man on the Moon, Surely I Can Win Your Heart” Beulah

13.“Good Luck in Jail” Drive Like Jehu

14.“You Have Cum in Your Hair and Your Dick Is Hanging Out” Palace

15.“Dress Sexy at My Funeral” Smog

16.“Fuck and Run” Liz Phair

17.“Come Back To Us Barbara Lewis Hare Krishna Beauregard” John Prine

18.“Naughty Fatalist” Vic Chestnut

19.“(No More) Salted Beef” Replicator

20.“Know Your Onion!” The Shins

Lists are culled from my personal library and reflect what I listen to, so there are likely to be a few key omissions. If you feel I have overlooked something of great importance or have given your favorite artist short shrift I'd love to hear about it. Better yet, send me the album.
