Album with the most horrendous song titles ever? (Semi-Mercury-Rev-centric)

theguywithnousername [Edit] [Delete] 15:11, 1 October '08

Quite aside from the fact Snowflake Midnight sounds like something you'd find in a box of Cadbury's Milk Tray, the new Mercury Rev album has utterly horrific song titles.

I mean Runaway Raindrop, Butterfly's Wing, Dream as a Young Girl as a Flower, A Squirrel and I (Holding on... And Letting Go) to name but a few... For Christ's sake, it's like they were chosen by Madeleine Bassett*

Has there been any album ever with more drippy, sickly, horrendously twee song titles? And if so what?

*unbearably twee and annoying character in Jeeves and Wooster

Please note this thread is not intended as a comment on the quality of said album.
