song title typos

ka10 · #1 12-02-2005, 09:45 AM

I just looked up the "Live in Boston" DVD listing on Amazon.com (which I could only find by clicking on the "Destiny Rules" listing and scrolling down to the "buy these two things together and save!" thing-a-ma-bob, by the way...), and under the song sample list, they have "Get Your Own Way." For some reason, I just found that oddly hilarious.

Anyone else have any funny song title typos to share?

LMFAO.. It's under the listen to the samples. That's effing hilarious.

As for me, I was downloading a few songs off of Limewire and I came across Stevie Nicks-One Winged Dove...Hah... TRY the EDGE of SEVENTEEN. I mean seriously..

Reminds me a bit of the song my mates and I used to sing when we were doing our exams last summer -- "You can get your own A...." and so on...

this bugs the ever living **** out of me. my iTunes totally wrecked the song titles to Sarah Brightman: Live in Las Vegas. Things capitalized where they shouldn't be, words just freaking made up, transposed song titles. I will never understand it. It's just weird.

There's nothing permanent about the way iTunes names your files, you know. You can go in and change whatever you want, just right click and go to "Get Info."

My iTunes thought that the ninth track on TITN was simply titled "Sara." Not quite, iTunes. Not quite.

oh yeah, I know that; I've completely renamed albums and song titles myself to fit the way I think they should be, for instance, the "L" in Trouble in Shangri-La is always capitalized on my iPod. I immediately changed it, but I was just saying it's just a hassle...I know, I probably sound lazy...

Haha, I always get excited when I see a song title come up on my iPod that's wrong. I can't wait to get home and fix it.

This isn't exactly a "typo," but when I bought the cassette-single to "Sometimes It's A Bitch" at National Record Mart, waaaaay back in 1991, the title on the sales receipt was listed as "She's Some Bitch."

I still have it somewhere... I just wish I could find it!

My MP3 player does that sometimes, it irritates the hell out of me ...

But I love Sarah Brightman!! Is it a good record? Yeah, I know this is a Stevie Nicks forum, but hey...

Sarah rocks! I have all of her CDs and DVDs. The Live in Las Vegas is a great CD. The DVD is awesome too, but don't expect the picture to be great if you have a big screen TV. It's not formatted so it looks awfully grainy, but it's a great show. When she tours again I'm seeing her for sure.

I rewrote the lyrics of Don't Stop as Don't Pop (Advice To A Balloon) for an exercise in a Drama course one day!
