No time to say anything much today. A quick competition maybe?
How many song-titles can you think of that are just a word spelled out?
(I've got two so far*: R.E.S.P.E.C.T. and D.I.V.O.R.C.E.).
And one other thing: A random question that I meant to ask ages ago and never got around to: What do we think of the general idea of happiness as a public policy goal?
(*Oh, alright. I admit that I nicked this from here).

I rather hate myself for knowing this, but isn't a "song" called "D.I.S.C.O." ?
I missed out the word "there". And I still hate myself. If you've heard the "song" you'll know why.
And by the way, Paulie, its actually "Respect" not "R.E.S.P.E.C.T.". Thats a bit of business that was added into the song on the Aretha Franklin version, and notably utilised in the various live versions - some now out on cd- by Dexys Midnight Runners. But the title is just the word.

Thanks for the link.How about ABC by the Jackson Five
F.I.N.E by Aerosmith.
F.E.A.R. by Ian Brown
YMCA by the Village People
'FLM' by Mel and Kim
btw, D.I.S.C.O was a great track.
Just remembered - how about C.R.E.A.M by the Wu? Possibly the best of all of these if you are accepting my view on Respect. Darren; oh dear. No its not and I still shudder when I think that I exposed myself in front of the millions of readers of Never trust a hippy as someone who remembered it.
W.O.M.A.N. sung by Etta James.
Paulie; I think anon has come up with the winner.
