Not sure if there's been a thread on this subject before, but what are some of the best song titles you can think of?
Here's some of mine:
Don't Ever Tell Locke What He Can't Do -- Moneen
The Frightening Reality of the Fact That We All Have To Grow Up and Settle Down One Day -- Moneen
XD So what are some of your favorite titles?

For me, this changes pretty often.
A song that comes to mind is Saosin - Sleepers.
The new one on the underoath purevolume/myspace is good, "In Regards to Myself."

7 Drunken Nights - The Dubliners
