Default TWO songs with the title not mentioned in the song

This is very common in many artists, but I don't think Stevie's ever done this before. Sure she never mentions Berlin, but that was only the subtitle. And shes done in TWICE on In Your Dreams. she never says the words Wide Sargasso Sea or Moonlight and/or Vampires Dream.

I noticed that too and I thought that was cool.

I noticed this as well. I like it.
I kept wondering how she was going to incorporate the words Wide Sargasso Sea anyway!

It's funny to me that even though the word is in the song, Dreams is not the obvious title and so many people get it wrong, even the so-called reviewers.

^Oh yes, I have friends who call it Thunder Only Happens.

Something else I find funny is how she sometimes 'renames' her songs like during the Unleashed Tour when she'd introduce Storms as I Have Always Been A Storm.

If a title has a phrase in brackets, chances are that Stevie won't sing that phrase at all.

For some reason, I cannot call it "Moonlight"...I keep calling it "Lady From The Mountain"

Yeah, sometimes I feel like obvious titles sort of take away from the lyrics to me. Like I can't help but hear every mention the title as them just stating the title... they kind of stick out like a sore thumb and then it feels disjointed to me.
