Single-Name Song-Titles!

[muinn-on-ethernet]

Here's a new game: post song-titles that are only one name.  There must be loads but I don't know many!

I'll start: Rhiannon by Fleetwood Mac.

[tommystrezures]

Surprised this one hasn't had a mention yet!

Delilah - Tom Jones

So after three.... 🎼 Why, Why Why, Delilah

[thesmokingrunner]

Ooo - good call.

Martha - Tom Waits

[sunflowers4me59]

Myfanwy-David Essex.

[muinn-on-ethernet]

Oh heck, Delilah. 😫  When I used to watch That's TV I turned it off every time that came on.  That and Have I the Right by the Honeycombs.

Jolene – Dolly Parton.  I'm pleased with how this thread has taken off! 😃

[*guinevere*]

I'm with you on Have I the Right by the Honeycombs.

There's something very annoying about that song. I was always the same even when it was first released.

[muinn-on-ethernet]

It's very ... urgent-sounding. 😕  And it's catchy, like Wings: I tend to dislike any song I get stuck in my head for long enough! (I won't mention the worst offenders, to spare you the irritation.)  I also hate Stop, Stop, Stop by the Hollies – it has a similar feel.  (I'm not a 'vintage' person but I listened to my parents' entire record-collection and they play the Capital Gold classics-radio-station every day.)

Eloise – Barry Ryan/The Damned. 😊  Lovely song!  My mum named a fairy ornament after it (soppy thing!).

[tommystrezures]

Eloise - great song and album, phantasmagoria or something like that. I actually still have my 12" blue vinyl of Eloise!

Another gothy one today, again by the Sisters....

Alice - Sisters of Mercy

[thesmokingrunner]

And then I offer:

Mercy - Adele

Hmmm...  Alice - Sisters of Mercy - Adele. Does anyone know a song titled Adele?

[*guinevere*]

Absolutely love Eloise by Barry Ryan, @muinn-on-ethernet  your parents' record collection sounds very much the same as mine, love Stop Stop Stop, and sadly I could sing you "Under my Umbrella" all the way through word for word but don't worry I don't put anyone through that these days!

[tommystrezures]

@thesmokingrunner  can't think of a song with a title of that, but see where you going! but just thought of another!

Kayleigh - Marillion

[thesmokingrunner]

@tommystrezures  I've found one! Adele by Beau Dommage (a Canadian band from Montreal). I had to resort to the interwebnet to find that, though - that's cheating isn't it? Sorry...

Anywhen, just back from another run and this one poped into my head:

Kyrie - Mr. Mister

[*guinevere*]

Does K-K-K-Katy count?

We used to sing it at school.

[sunflowers4me59]

If you mean "Bus Stop", which has "under my umbrella" as a lyric, you can put me through it anytime, one of my favourites, could listen to it all day! Sad I know!

Yes that's the one.  Sorry about the wrong title, I'm always doing that! Love the Hollies, and all the rest, it's my era!

I've got Phantasmagoria by the Damned (fantastic album!) and Eloise isn't on there.  It's actually on Anything. 🙂

[muinn-on-ethernet]

Fernando – ABBA.

[rosliston]

Have non of you not ever heard of the fab Foo Fighters. Check out Best of you for the real deal.

Sorry for criticising Stop, Stop, Stop then, if you like it! 😃  I liked it the best of the Hollies' stuff when I first heard it, but I've gone off it since! *also liked Piggies by the Beatles, for some reason*

 🎼 Bus-stop, bus goes, she stays, love grows... 😛

[rosliston]

Good grief that all sounds dreadfully dated and pretty painful  LOL.

[muinn-on-ethernet]

Mickey – Toni Basil.
