Dance For Me, Asshole

Yesterday Chris sent me an IM telling me that Fever Ray was about to release a cover of one of his favorite Nick Cave songs. As it turns out, the song is “Stranger Than Kindness,” but my guess was “Bitch Killed In The Moonlight.” This led us to brainstorm other song titles for artists that essentially summarize their lyrical themes. We came up with the following:

Madonna “Dance For Me, Asshole”
Prince “My Penis Is 4 U”
Radiohead “This Is Uncomfortable”
Tori Amos “Religion Made Me Freaky”
LCD Soundsystem “Why Not Dance About It?”
The Rolling Stones “I Don’t Care If I’m A Bastard Because You Love It”
of Montreal “Obscurist Freudian Phantasmagoria”
U2 “We Shall Overcome Something Vague”
Bruce Springsteen “Down At The Workplace”
PJ Harvey “Sex Makes Me Sad”
Gwar “This Is Going To Work Just Fine When We Play It Live”
Beck “Disassociated Free Association”

Do you have any of your own?
