ok, obviously I'm having a slow day at work, so here goes nothing.

With every new Prince album that drops, the songtitles always make
me think "ah yes, that's typical Prince", or at least, most of the
titles seem to fit very well among the rest of his output.

But every now and again there's a songtitle that makes you go:

"Well, i would have never in a thousand years expected such a cut
from Prince"

for me, the most apparant ones are some that have been released
lately:

# 1: "Arboretum"

one of my fav words, and all of a sudden, boom, there is a song
called exactly that. I was very pleasantly surprised.


what's you # 1 weird Prince song title?

Anotherloverholenyohead surprised me. He'd never had a song title like that before (that I knew about anyway).

What made it even more surprising was that on the album sleeve it was "Anotherloverholenyohead" but on the vinyl label it was "Anotherloveerholenyohead". OK, just a spelling mistake, but I hadn't seen any of them on a Prince album before either.

I was really surprised by many of the titles on "Emancipation" on the first look. On overall they just seemed quite bland for Prince.

For the biggest surprise though I'd vote for "I Rock Therefore I Am". Just didn't sound like Prince at all.
