I was bored, so I decided to look through my music library and list the songs that don't mention the title. I didn't include them if the title was in parenthesis, e.g. "Teen Angst (What the World Needs Now)", or if it's only one word off (there are a few exceptions that I made and you'll see which ones I've included). I decided to post this list and see if anyone else would like to do the same thing.

I am Glad, ‘cause I’m Finally Returning Back Home – Eduard A. Khil (Trololo Man)

Most Fall Out Boy titles before 2010 were sentences that have no relation at all to the song.

Tell That Mick He Just Made My List Of Things To Do Today
I've Got A Dark Alley And A Bad Idea That Says You Should Shut Your Mouth
I'm Like A Lawyer With The Way I'm Always Trying To Get You Off
Headfirst Slide Into Cooperstown On A Bad Bet

The Veldt, Professional Greifers, Ghosts 'n Stuff, and Seeya by deadmau5
Fellow Feeling, Sad Machine, and Flicker by Porter Robinson
Unicorn by Robots With Rayguns
First Date Mullet by Pony Pony Run Run

Similar to Fall Out Boy, many of Panic! at the Disco's first few album's featured songs that didn't use the title in the songs or had ridiculously long sentences (or both).

Literally every single song from A Fever You Can't Sweat Out have titles not featured in the song itself.

I would list a bunch of Korean/Japanese songs with English titles, but that would be too easy. Instrumentals are also a given.

M.A.D. by Hadouken!
Reptilia by The Strokes
After Hours by The Velvet Underground
Knights of Cydonia by Muse

Instrumental songs don't count. And I'm only doing my iTunes stuff because I don't have all night.

Don't Panic ~ Coldplay
Viva La Vida ~ Coldplay
Immigrant Song ~ Led Zepplin
Fade to Black ~ Metallica
Escape ~ Metallica
Disposable Heroes ~ Metallica
Eye of the Beholder ~ Metallica
Uprising ~ Muse
Clint Eastwood ~ Gorillaz
A Warrior's Call ~ Volbeat

Maybe You've Been Brainwashed Too by the New Radicals. Not only is the title not in the song but neither are the lyrics that are in the liner notes.

Ballad of a Thin Man – Bob Dylan
N.I.B – Black Sabbath
