Eddie Cochran: Three Steps To Heaven
When this song got released, he already was there...

Nirvana: I Hate Myself And I Want To Die
We know, Mr. Cobain, we know.....

Notorious B.I.G: Ready To Die
Most prophetic album title ever?

Limp Bizkit: Results May Vary
Certainly, never before has there ever been a more honest album title...

Shalamar: Disappearing Act
Their last hit of any remarkable kind.....

Culture Club: Mistake #3
In most markets, they never released more than two singles from their "Waking Up With The House On Fire" album. However, in some countries, this was the third single off the album, becoming the third flop in a row....

Did Default ever record a self-titled album?

― Mike Ouderkirk (Mike Ouderkirk), Sunday, 19 October 2003 00:41 (twenty-two years ago)

I can't stand it when critics point out the obvious apt titles for some albums. Aretha's "Young Gifted and Black" comes to mind.

Also, Beatles - Revolver

Hmmm...

"The Same Old Song" by Four Tops.
When compared to its predeccessor, "I Can't Help Myself", it sounds like, well, exactly, the same old song :-)

― Geir Hongro (GeirHong), Tuesday, 21 October 2003 08:02 (twenty-two years ago)

one month passes...

I've been listening to a '60s band called Giant Crab... I like 'em, but "Giant Crap" would be the obvious "Shit Sandwich"-style pun here.

Off The Wall

― roger adultery, Wednesday, 10 December 2003 06:08 (twenty-two years ago)

I remember when Staind came out with that new album, I think titled "12 shades of grey" may have been another number, but I said, "Yep, you got it."

Michael Jackson's life has been kind of a Thriller so far. According to the latest news, he may be both Bad and Dangerous and some of his ex-fans are now tearing his posters Off The Wall. Recent events may hint at him not being as Invincible as he may have thought though. But at least he has written HIStory by being the most famous pedophile since Plato.
