Posted June 18, 200817 yr leading on from the 'money for nothing' post by grebo, what other tracks titles or artists names are eerily prophetic or have become appropriate? like cliff richard 'batchelor boy' or 'status quo' (having not evolved musically one jot!!! lol)
June 18, 200817 yr Michael Jackson - Black or White, Smooth Criminal & The Man In The Mirror (self explanatory although from a legal point of view the 2nd song does not apply, but Beatles fans knowing how he duped Paul McCartney into revealing how much he was bidding for Northern Songs (The Beatles song publishing), so he could bid £5million more & win their rights will agree its title is legit) As they released two indie singles in the 1990s: Coldplay Talking Heads - Their angular intelligent agit pop suits their name perfectly Sting - I'd wish he'd buzz off The Small Faces - very aptly named as their tallest member was 5ft 7 inches The Smiths - Their ordinariness was the perfect name for Morrissey's everyday wry observations befitting of a poet laurette.
June 20, 200817 yr Nirvana's original title for "In Utero" was "I Hate Myself and I Want To Die"..... So that kind of became a self-fulfilling prophecy......
