Do u wanna explain why this is?? All General is doing is having a chance to vote on the title & the final winners for a bit of fun. I'm sure the lyrics will still be discussed quite heavily in the music forum.

Also, fade into the sun doesn't really narrow it down - u can write about loads of things.

& Laura - I did reply to your post, however Tom went & wrote the same thing here

Because half the time the concern on here seems to be "does this belong in this forum or not" or "should we have a new forum for this and that" or "should we get rid of this old forum". The Music Forum is one of the most underused forums so why not keep created Music topics in there? In the same way as I would expect Thomas Anderson to have a "Who can write the best filmscript" topic in the Movies forum

Every single title sounds like a cliched Bon Jovi alternative song: alternatives to Right Side of Wrong, Bad Name etc... the real trick should be to have a song like, I don't know:

Bangkok
Captain Crash etc - not songs i like but ones with titles so ambiguous that there is actually a challenge to write something and do something creative.

Being creative on a not-so-creative title is much more of a challenge, in my opinion.

For logistical reasons.

The titles to vote for were picked by ppl who are taking part.
