If song names were to be said in the lyrics

[ilikemilk]

What would the song names be called. So many songs have song names that are not even said once in the lyrics.

What would XO Tour Life be called for example, or 1-800, or 679. Any other songs that don't have the name in the lyrics.

[mikerivera]

I Write Sins Not Tragedies would be “Poise and Rationality” or “Pour the Champagne.”

Space Age Love Song would be “Falling in Love” or “I Saw Your Eyes.” They definitely picked the right title.

Midnight City would be called “City is my Church” or “Blinding Twilight.”

Bohemian Rhapsody would be “Mama, Just Killed a Man.”

This is actually a lot of fun

Viva La Vida - > Ruled The World

[312999]

XO Tour Lif3 - Push Me To The Edge
Fetty Wap - 679 - Sowed Up
Logic - 1-800 - Be Alive
Nelly - Dilemma - Crazy Over You
Mary J Blige - Family Affair - Don’t Need No
Bruno Mars - The Lazy Song - Nothing At All

Could there be better song names for these, feel like these all fit well.

Ariana Grande: "7 rings" --> "I Got It"
Beyoncé: "Daddy Lessons" --> "Daddy Said Shoot"
Tove Lo: "disco tits" --> "ready to go"

also a fun case of this is Charli XCX's "Track 10" off of her Pop 2 mixtape, which got remixed and took the title "Blame It Your Love" (ft. Lizzo) on her 2019 album Charli.

Okay here’s a challenge. What would Song 2 by Blur be called?

When I

[gikem]

For me, the obvious one is Never Say Never by The Fray, that song really should’ve been called Don’t Let Me Go.

(EDIT: They do mention the title twice in the song, but it’s very easy to miss because the one-line chorus dominates your memory)

Woo Hoo!

[irice22]

Or "Pleased to Meet You (Woo Hoo!)"

[Deleted]

50 Ways To Say Goodbye by Train would then be called Ways To Say You Died.

I'd call it "Nothing Really Matters"

[#brayden]

7 Rings - "I Want It, I Got It"
Smells Like Teen Spirit - "Entertain Us"
Iris - "Who I Am"
I Write Sins Not Tragedies - "Poise & Rationality"

[312999]

Childish Gambino - Redbone would obviously be Stay Woke.

[dremolus - solarpunk]

I don't have a problem with song titles not being sung but just for fun:
SUGAR (BROCKHAMPTON) - Nights Alone
Wet Dreamz - I Ain't NEver Did This Before
Ivy (Frank Ocean) - I Thought That I Was Dreaming
Wicked Games (The Weeknd) - Tell Me You Love Me
Clint Eastwood - Sunshine in a Bag

[rihannabiggestfan]

I could see Panic! titling it "A Sense of Poise and Rationality" lol

"Pour the Champagne" would be nice tho, I like when the title is only said in one part of the song, a Paramore "Brick by Boring Brick" tea

[Luckie Starchild]

Rod Stewart's "Young Turks" would instead be called "Young Hearts."
