Brand New - The Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows
Janet - Son Of A Gun (I Betcha Think This Song Is About You)
*NSYNC - God Must've Spent A Little More Time On You
Robbie Williams - There Are Bad Times Just Around the Corner
Cicero - Heaven Must Have Sent You Back to Me

are merely mid-size compare to these monsters...

Hoagy Charmichael - I'm a Cranky old yank, in my clanky old tank, on the streets of Yokohama with my Honolulu mama, singin' those beat-o, beat-o, flat on my seat-o, Hirohito Blues
The Faces - You Can Make Me Dance Sing or Anything (Even Take The Dog For A Walk, Mend A Fuse, Fold Away The Ironing Board, or Any Other Domestic Shortcmings)

No "long-a** song titles" thread would be complete without mentioning these guys...

As a group, the Pet Shop Boys are among the upper eschalon of artists who make longwinded song titles:

You Only Tell Me You Love Me When You're Drunk
Where The Streets Have No Name (I Can't Take My Eyes off You)
It's Just My Little Tribute to Caligula, Darling
This Must Be The Place I Waited Years To Leave
I Don't Know What You Want But I Can't Give It Any More
I Wouldn't Normally Do This Kind of Thing
How Can You Expect To Be Taken Seriously?
The Boy Who Couldn't Keep His Clothes On
How I Learned To Hate Rock and Roll
Try It (I'm In Love With A Married Man)
Opportunities (Let's Make Lots of Money)

what's that one X-Tina songtitle that's so long by the time you finish reading it, you're so outta breath you can't sing along?

glamslamkid said:

Hmm... I love X-Tina but I can't think of a song with a long title.

May a dog's colon be familiar with the warmth of your breath Fishbone

I was thinking of them...expecially one of my favorites "I Don't Know What You Want But I Can't Give It Anymore". It's kind of funny becuase a good amount of their hits are single titles as well like "Heart", "Before", "Paninaro", "Rent" and of course the very recent "Miracles" and "Flamboyant". I got really addicted to PSB this year. Other than the fact that nearly all of their good stuff is on imports, which even used, tend to cost a little more, it's a healthy addiciton.

Snoop Dogg, "It Ain't No Fun if the Homies Can't Have None"!

if we include albums, that Fiona Apple one that starts "When The Pawn..." has to hold the record.

Moloko - "If You Have A Cross To Bear You May As Well Use It As A Crutch"

I the Pet Shop Boys. They concoct some of the best song titles. I like collecting their stuff.

There's a great B-side on the "Flamboyant" maxi [IMPORT] entitled "I Didn't Get Where I Am Today." Have you heard it? It has this quasi-'60s/REM-meets-William Orbit vibe to it. Through them, I was turned on to the Scissor Sisters (their Silhouettes & Shadows mix of "Flamboyant" appears on that same maxi). It's a great buy. But, I know you're broke now like me. LOL.

Does "17 Days" count? I can't remember its full title at the moment.

I thought of that, too, when I read the title of this thread.
