Most songs have the title of the song as the refrain or otherwise prominently featured in the lyrics. However, woe betide to the casual listener who assumes that this is true of all songs. They're liable to say something like "I love that song 'Teenage Wasteland'" and get permanently branded a noob or a poser, or just get banned altogether for mentioning a Fandom-Enraging Misconception. In the defense of such listeners, this Title Confusion often results from idiosyncratic song naming, where the title of the song has apparently nothing whatsoever to do with the tune (thereby averting Title Drop). Also, songs are frequently played on the radio (or by friends) with no introduction, so the best anyone can do for identification is typing whatever line is most memorable into Google with "lyrics" after it or humming a few bars. Songs that outlast their initial airplay popularity to become incorporated into other works such as films and video games as background music are particularly vulnerable to this, as contemporary listeners can catch the title being mentioned by a radio DJ or see the credits of the music video. As a general rule, if the song title is given as "Phrase 1 (Phrase 2)", it's probably this type of song. Phrase 1 is the official title and Phrase 2 is the line that repeatedly appears in the lyrics (while Phrase 1 appears less often or not at all) that everyone thinks is the title. Or sometimes the other way around, which apparently represents the musicians giving up and titling the song what everyone calls it anyway, but retaining their original title in parenthetized form. Opera tunes are traditionally known by their first linesnote This is mostly for practical purposes. When reading a script or music sheet, "Start at Vesti la giubba" is a much easier instruction to follow than "Start from the beginning of the bit that contains Ridi, Pagliaccio!.", so this trope never applies to them if you're good at catching words in Italian or German. Of course, there's the catch of being able to tell where songs begin, as they sometimes begin with sung dialoguenote called "recitative" rather than with actual song. People who assume that the song's name is the most prominent words in the text, such as someone referring to the "nessun dorma" aria as "vincerò, vincerò!", will be discreetly labelled "beginner" by the rest of the group and anyone talking with them is politely "dumbing down" for them or offering to explain (the shift towards the more well-known titles has been happening recently, though). See also Misattributed Song and Non-Appearing Title. Sometimes turns into a Chorus-Only Song. For In-Universe examples of this trope, see Something Something Leonard Bernstein. |

The Japanese/European opening song of Sonic the Hedgehog CD is called "Sonic - You Can Do Anything", not "Toot Toot Sonic Warrior."

"Rainy Day Women #12 & 35" from Blonde on Blonde is the title of the song better known as "Everybody Must Get Stoned". It's clear why the song couldn't be titled "Everybody Must Get Stoned" — it would have seriously hampered distribution of anything with that song on it; it's less clear why Dylan chose this decoy title. He claimed it was for two women who wandered into the studio the day the song was recorded... or "Rainy day woman" might be a slang term for a marijuana cigarette from the '60s. | |

Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog: The first song in Act II is officially titled "My Eyes", but is often referred to as "On the Rise". There was a gap of several months between the release of the video and the release of the soundtrack and song titles. Most of Doctor Horrible has that problem, due to the aforementioned gap between the release of the musical and the release of official titles for the songs. "Penny's Song" or "Story of a Girl"? And just how are you supposed to name the Bad Horse Choruses? And despite "Brand New Day" being the closer of Act II, the opener of Act III, "So They Say", ends on "Or is this a brand new day?" The official titles (according to the soundtrack albums) are "Penny's Song", "Bad Horse Chorus" and "Bad Horse Chorus (Reprise)". Reportedly, Joss Whedon will break down and cry if you call it "Laundry Day". It's "My Freeze Ray". |

A case where it comes from dialogue rather than lyrics: in Kirby Super Star, a beach stage theme from Revenge of Meta Knight is often misnamed "Grape Garden", which is mentioned in dialogue while the song plays. Its official name is simply "Sea Stage". Grape Garden is a cloud level from Kirby's Adventure, completely unrelated other than being a Call-Back. | |

Hair: "The Flesh Failures" is simply legendary. You don't remember "The Flesh Failures"? It's the one that ended with a long refrain of "let the sun shine in, let the sun shine in..."

The ending theme of Sound of the Sky can easily be mistaken to be titled as "Aijou Yuujou" due to the song starting with those words and are repeated a couple of times throughout the song, which becomes all the more memorable due to the cheery nature of the song becoming increasingly dissonant with the mood of the series as it gradually reveals the full extent of its Crapsaccharine World setting. Its actual title is a Non-Appearing Title, "Girls, Be Ambitious." | |

The Four Tops: "I Can't Help Myself" is also known as "Sugar Pie Honey Bunch", since that starts the song and is considerably more notable than the true title. Some cover versions use the false title. In addition, "Reach Out I'll Be There" contains no parentheses even though the title words are never sung consecutively. ("Reach out for me" is sung in between.) For that reason the song is often referred to as "I'll Be There". |

John Denver: "Annie's Song", one of his biggest hits, never mentions the name Annie anywhere in the lyrics. People who don't know the real title tend to assume it's called "You Fill Up My Senses" or "Come Let Me Love You". By the same token, "Annie's Other Song" is often assumed to be called "I'm Bringin' Me Home to You". |

The Simpsons: In "New Kids on the Blecch," the song featured in Bart's boy band, the Party Posse's, music video is called "Drop Da Bomb." It's more commonly known to fans as "Yvan eht Nioj" due to the backwards lyrics meant to hypnotize people into joining the Navy. | |

Joe Pera Talks With You also comments on this. After hearing the song for the first time, Joe calls the radio station to find out the name of the song, and the DJ mentions that the song is called "Baba O'Riley", even though they say "Teenage Wasteland" a million times and "Baba O'Riley" zero times. | |

A radio station once made a pre-song sweeper of a listener calling in to ask "Who sings that new song, American Girl?" to which the DJ responded "Well nobody, but Trisha Yearwood sings X's and O's." "X's and O's" is the second half of the second line of the chorus, while "She's an American Girl" is the last two repeated lines of every chorus... But, "X's and O's" gets repeated about 4 times at the very end of the song. And just to confuse things further, the song's official title is "XXX's and OOO's (An American Girl)". Yes, three X's and three O's. | |

The Polyphonic Spree apparently subscribes to the serial-number school of song titling, meaning that very nearly their entire repertoire falls under this trope. Outside of album track listings, they do refer to their songs by the subtitles; "Section 9 (Light & Day/ Reach for the Sun)", for example, is just "Light & Day" on the single or when Tim DeLaughter speaks in person. Also, songs that aren't on their main albums don't have section numbers ("I'm Calling" or assorted concert-only pieces). The only really tricky thing is that Sections 20 and 21 are both called "Together We're Heavy"; 20 is the title track for their 2nd album, while 21 is the prologue to their 3rd. | |

Naruto: It's frequently mistaken to be titled "Fighting Dreamers" after a bit of Gratuitous English in the refrain, but it's actually called "GO!!!" (punctuation included), which is said once in the entire song (after the part with "Don't forget your first impulse ever" and "Let's keep your adventurous ever"). It does sound like it's said in the chorus, but that lyric is actually "Burn!" The first opening of Naruto Shippūden is called "Hero's Come Back!!" by nobodyknows+, though sometimes you will also find it under the title "Speed Hunter". The fifth Shippuden opening, "Hotaru no Hikari" (Light of the Fireflies), is often incorrectly called "Sha la la". |

The second track on Abbey Road is just called "Something," not "Something in the Way She Moves." note This mistake is especially aggravating since "Something in the Way She Moves" is a different song entirely. It was written and performed by James Taylor on his debut album, which was released by Apple Records, The Beatles' label. George Harrison liked the song's opening line and proceeded to use it as the opening lyric of his own song, but obviously, he had to give it a different title. Interestingly, James Taylor had originally wanted his song to be titled "I Feel Fine," after a more dominant line in the chorus, but that title was already taken by a Beatles song! | |

"Here I Am" and "The One That You Love" are two different Air Supply songs (the fact that they're both from the same album, which is also titled "The One That You Love", doesn't help a bit... to make matters even worse, the songs were also released as the A and B sides of the same single). The former is sometimes referred to as "Just When I Thought I Was Over You" to try to head off the confusion. | |

Tosca: The original Scarpia Ultimatum is actually called "Tre sbirri, una carozza (Three cops, one carriage)". It's usually either referred to as "Va, Tosca" or "the one with the Te Deum". Averted with "Vissi d'arte (I lived for art)", which actually is the part everyone remembers. |

Ed Sheeran: His 2015 #2 hit is called "Thinking Out Loud", not "People Fall in Love in Mysterious Ways" or "We Found Love Right Where We Are". The words of which are uttered as the last line of the chorus. Another Ed Sheeran song, "Shape of You", is not called "I'm In Love With The Shape of You" or "I'm In Love With Your Body". |

In an episode of Married... with Children, Al is trying to figure out the title of a song. All he knows is "huh huh him". Later he hears the song on the radio, and the chorus is "Go With Him". Then the DJ comes on and says "I know you think that song is called "Go With Him", but it's not!" and then neglects to mention what the title actually is. (It's "Anna" by Arthur Alexander.)Every line in the song begins with the word 'Anna', while 'Go With Him' is only the refrain. The song itself was later covered by The Beatles, under the title "Anna (Go to Him)". It causes quite a bit of confusion among listeners (at least those who know the title). | |

Sesame Street: Inversion — the song the cow sings is called "Achoo", not "The Sneezing Song", which is the name of a separate song about sneezing. The song about baby animals is called "What are Kids Called?", not "Cats Have Kittens". The song about the pros and cons of rain is called "Rainy Day Song", not "It's a Rainy Day", "Rainy Day", or "The Rain Song". The song Humphrey sings to Natasha is called "Natasha's Lullaby", not "Goodnight, Natasha". |

The Cranberries: That "In Your Head" song by them? It's actually called "Zombie". The fact that Eminem sampled the chorus in a song of his ACTUALLY titled "In Your Head" is likely not helping. "Dreams" was often mistaken as "Dream to Me", which Dario G. retitled their cover version as. |

Razzberry Jazzberry Jam somehow inverts this with the show’s ending theme. Both the title and the first line of the chorus are “We Wanna Thank You�; however, in some renditions of the show’s Couch Gag, characters refer to the song as “the ‘Thank You' song�, which may cause viewers to believe this trope is in effect when it isn’t. | |

They do not have a song called "I'll Be Watching You". The actual title is "Every Breath You Take", also from Synchronicity. This is because the Puff Daddy song that sampled it, "I'll Be Missing You," takes its title from the parallel part of the chorus. (And while we're at it, it's not a romantic song either.) | |

In The Price Is Right, one of the pricing games, "Punch-a-Bunch", is frequently called "Punchboard". It is a punchboard; the contestant can earn up to four punches to win lots of money ($10,000+ during the Bob Barker era, $25,000+ during the Drew Carey era, and even more in special circumstances like prime-time or anniversary episodes). But the original version has both the prominent "Punch-a-Bunch" title, and the simpler "Punchboard" on the board.note That "Punchboard" display consists of bonus punch slots that were deprecated after the game's first season of play in 1979. The revision, introduced in 1996, removed "Punchboard" from the game display. But people still sometimes refer to the game as "Punchboard". | |

Steven Universe: The Movie is a full musical and a few of its songs are oddly titled. The recap song, which starts every verse with “once upon a time� and ends every verse with “here we are in the future� is in fact called "Happily Ever After", which only appears in the first and last verses. Making it extra confusing, a shorter version of the song is used as a theme for Steven Universe: Future, which replaces the eponymous line with the new title. Pearl’s explanatory song upon being rebooted is "system/BOOT.PearlFinal(3).info", which obviously appears nowhere in the lyrics. Steven’s reassuring song to the villain, after her backstory is revealed, isn’t called "You’ll Love Again", as one might expect, but rather "Found". The ending is just called "Finale". |

John Mellencamp: That famous song isn't called "Ain't That America?". It's called "Pink Houses", and those words do actually appear in the chorus. It doesn't help at all that John invites the audience to sing "ain't that American" with him, while he sings "little Pink Houses for you and me" as low key as possible during concerts. Nor is his other famous song called "Life Goes On" (or a variant). It's "Jack and Diane". |

"The Dark Side of the Moon" (for the Album Title Drop that is part of the song's only repeated line) is actually titled "Brain Damage" (which doesn't appear in the lyrics). On radio stations, the latter song is often played with "Eclipse".note Sometimes the two songs are referred together as the album's Title Track, either by people who don't know the titles or already do (as an alternative to "Brain Damage/Eclipse"). This is to say nothing of those who may further mistitle the song as "The Lunatic" or "Lunatic" (which opens all of the song's verses). | |

System of a Down has this problem with several of their songs, since a lot of them are named different then the prominent lyrics (and a lot of the verses are hard to understand). At no time are the words "chop suey" ever mentioned in "Chop Suey", which may well explain why it's been called "When Angels Deserve to Die". Those words are the last line of the refrain, though; and it seems to be part of the central meaning to the song's lyrics. Also there's "Wake Up!", "I Don't Think You Trust," and "Self-Righteous Suicide" for that song. The working title was "Suicide", hence the engineer saying "We're rolling 'Suicide'" at the start of the recording. The label rejected the name and thus the group named it after a mondegreen (Trust in my self-rightCHOP SUEYcide). Still, it isn't "Self-Righteous Suicide". Even though the words "toxicity" appears in the song "Toxicity", common mislabels for it include "Disorder" and "What, Do You Own The World?". While "B.Y.O.B." fits with the party-themed allegories, the phrase doesn't appear at all on the song, so people tend to assume it might be called "Why do they always send the poor?" or "Blowing up the sunshine". |

Donkey Hodie: The theme song is often referred to by fans under the title "Here Comes Donkey Hodie". It is officially titled "Donkey Hodie (Theme Song)". The song many people call "Blow Your Troubles Away" is officially titled "Take A Deep Breath". The song from the episode "Hoof Dancing Is Hard" is claimed by many to be titled "Practice", because the chorus uses that word a lot. According to the credits, its' actual name is "Grampy's Secret Recipe". The recurring song in "Panda Hodie" is not called "Oh, I Am Purple Panda", but rather "I'm Purple Panda". |

Spin Doctors: The song featuring the line "I've got a pocket full of kryptonite" is entitled "Jimmy Olsen's Blues." Made more confusing by being on an album called Pocket Full of Kryptonite. Biggest-ever hit for this band, same album: It's widely thought to be called "Just Go Ahead Now" or after the phrase that ends each line in the chorus. It's not called "If You Want to Call Me Baby", either. It's actually called "Two Princes", which appears in the opening line of the first verse. |

You know that song that was used in Ghost Rider (2007)? The one about "ghost riders in the sky"? The full title is "(Ghost) Riders in the Sky: A Cowboy Legend". Note that the "ghost" is in parentheses. It should also be mentioned that the song is very old, and Ghost Rider was hardly the first instance of it being used in a movie. | |

Journey: "Don't Stop Believin'" is often referred to as "Midnight Train" or any variant on the first line "just a small-town girl"... It's also referred to as "Streetlight People" from the refrain. Also, the song's title was originally written as "Don't Stop Believing" on the album. Later re-releases and covers have used "Don't Stop Believin'". It's "Separate Ways (Worlds Apart)", not "One day, love will find you". That song's title makes it an inversion of what the title makes you expect. "Worlds apart" is heard once in a verse, "separate ways" is repeated multiple times in the chorus. It's "Faithfully", not "I'm Forever Yours." |

"I'm Here Now" from Tekken 5 is the name of the instrumental song that plays during the first half of the opening sequence (when Kazuya and Heihachi are fighting the Jack robots). It is not the name of the lyrical song from the second half of the intro that begins with the words "I'm here now". That song is called "Sparking!", which appears right at the very end of the song (once before the first verse and once more before the song ends, along with "Super King"). | |

Disturbed: "Meaning of Life" is often called "Get Psycho". "Conflict" is often called "Enemy". Probably because "enemy" is every fifth word. To put it into perspective, the song is about 250 words long at 4:35. The word "Enemy" is used at least 52 times. So yes, this song is indeed made 1/5 "Enemy". "Voices" is often called "Are You Breathing?" due to the line being said numerous times throughout the song and chorus. The title comes from the line: "I can the hear the voice." |

"Across the Nation" (the Raw theme during the years when WWE was slowly transitioning from the Attitude Era to the current TV-PG era, and appropriate for a show that appears in a different part of North America every week) has the actual words "across the nation" in its lyrics, but they are slipped in so casually that it's easy to miss them. A newcomer was more likely to think the song was titled "Let's Get It On" or "Move to the Music" or even "Play That Fuckin' Music", since those are the lines that are uttered most often by the performers. | |

The most iconic song from the Goo Goo Dolls is called "Iris", not "I Just Want You To Know Who I Am" or "I Don't Want The World To See Me". Though, to be fair, the title isn't mentioned anywhere in the song, nor does it have anything to do with the movie it was written for. And if you've been to Busch Gardens Tampa Bay and seen their ice skating show Turn It Up!, you might think the song that played at the end of said show was the same. Instead it's "Over and Over". | |

The Pirates of Penzance: The Pirate King's song, best known by the refrain, "I am a Pirate King/You are, hurrah for the Pirate King!/And it is, it is a glorious thing to be a Pirate King!" is of course titled, "Oh, Better Far to Live and Die". The trio known by the refrain, "A paradox/A paradox/A most ingenious paradox!/With quips and quibbles heard in flocks/None can beat this paradox!" is naturally called, "When You Had Left Our Pirate Fold". The refrain, "I am an Orphan Boy/An Orphan Boy/An Orphan Boy/How sad, an Orphan Boy/For he is an Orphan Boy/He is, hurrah for the Orphan Boy!/And it sometimes is a useful thing to be an Orphan Boy" is part of a song titled, "Oh, Men of Dark and Dismal Fate". "I am the Very Model of a Modern Major-General" is an aversion. The line both starts and ends the song, and it's difficult to imagine how anyone might think the title was anything other than some variation on "Modern Major General".note A lot of people do think it's called "The Major General Song", but that's a description and not the title. |

Steven Universe: "Stronger than You" is the title only gets sung in the final refrain, while "I am made of love" is sung in every refrain, leading some to initially mislabel the song as "Made of Love." "Shining Through" from Steven Universe Future gets its title from the end of the song where it's sang only twice. Most would believe it to be named "Why So Blue" after the episode it came from, even Cartoon Network's YouTube channel uploaded the song under that title. |

Electronic: They did not have a song called "I Don't Need You Anymore", that's the Non-Appearing Title song "Reality". They don't have a song called "Living in Sin" either. That's called "Get the Message". This is an understandable mistake as the latter is another Non-Appearing Title, whereas the former is not only part of the chorus but also noticeably emphasized. And "Getting Away with It" isn't called "All My Life" or "I Love You More Than You Love Me". |

Phineas and Ferb: The song Stacy's relatives sing in "Summer Belongs to You" is officially titled "J-Pop (Welcome to Tokyo)", not "Welcome to Tokyo". A good number of P&F songs fall under title confusion. Some songs are given titles on the wiki before the episode comes out, only these titles are different from the official BMI titles, which are sometimes different from the titles the writers and creators use. However, the song's unofficial, incorrect titles tend to spread fairly quickly over the Internet and YouTube. Three examples: "History of Rock" not "Danny's Story", "Big Ginormous Airplane" not "The Paper Pelican Floor Show", and "Baliwood" not "Destroyed Dreams". The general, "official" rule is to go by whatever the creators use. Example: The song is "Evil for Extra Credit", even though the official BMI title is "Evil for College Credit". The song played during the Big Idea in "Last Day of Summer" is "There's No One I'd Rather Go Nowhere With", and not "There's No One That I'd Rather Go Nowhere With". |

His Flintstones-flavored Red Hot Chili Peppers parody is named "Bedrock Anthem", not "Yabba Dabba Doo Now" or any variation thereof; the mistake is probably due to the repetition of Fred Flinstone's catchphrase in place of the semi-Title-Only Chorus from "Give It Away". | |

A lot of their song titles are drawn from literature and movies, mostly for completely unrelated reasons; "Lying Is the Most Fun a Girl Can Have Without Taking Her Clothes off" comes from the movie Closer, as does "But It's Better If You Do". | |

Doja Cat: There's a joke song about being a cow. It's called "Mooo!", not "Bitch I'm a Cow" as people tend to assume. Her song for the ‘’Elvis’’ film is called “Vegas�, not “Ah, Get It�, which is basically the entire chorus sampled from “Hound Dog�. |

Donovan: It's "Sunshine Superman", not "I've Made My Mind Up" or "You're Going to Be Mine." The Title Drop comes with the relatively unobtrusive line "Superman and Green Lantern ain't got, uh, nothing on me." His song "Atlantis" (best known for its usage in the infamous Billy Batts scene in Goodfellas) is often known as "Way Down Below The Ocean" due to that being the first words actually sung in the song. |

An inversion/zig-zag: "We Will Rock You", one of their most famous songs, was the B-side to "We Are The Champions", and the two are almost always played together on the radio. This is also how they are arranged on News of the World (Queen), and were also typically played back-to-back in concert. This leads to some people assuming "We Are The Champions" is the title of one big song, and incorrectly assuming that other people are incorrectly assuming the title to the second part is "We Will Rock You"; or vice versa. | |

Chicago You know that number that goes "He had it coming, he had it coming, he only had himself to blame..."? Well, it isn't called "He Had it Coming", as it can be found on certain file sharing sites as. It's called "Cell Block Tango". And that ragtime-like song? It's "Press Conference Rag", not "They Reached For the Gun." (Actually, it's a bit of a complex example. It was originally called "Press Conference Rag" (and that should still be the title if you're a purist), but so many people mislabeled it that "We Both Reached For the Gun" became the new title.) |

The Rolling Stones: Luckily, the band has fans who know the real titles of "Pleased to meet You," "You Make a Grown Man Cry" and "Take me down, Little Suzie." They are respectively "Sympathy for the Devil," "Start Me Up" and the less-memorable "Dead Flowers." They don't have a song called "I Hear Every Mother Say". That's actually "Mother's Little Helper". |

The Wizard of Oz: "We're Off to See the Wizard" is the name of the song. "Follow the Yellow Brick Road" is just part of the verse, though it's the only part of the verse used in the movie. (The rest goes: "Follow the rainbow over the stream / Follow the fellow who follows a dream.") Oddly, the first time the song appears (as Dorothy is leaving Munchkinland and the Munchkins are singing the song), it is titled "Follow the Yellow Brick/You're Off to See the Wizard". It's simply "Over the Rainbow", not "Somewhere Over the Rainbow." (Everyone gets this one wrong.) |

Third Eye Blind They never did a song called "I Want Something Else". It's really "Semi-Charmed Life" - which itself is confusing, because "semi-charmed life" isn't exactly what's in the lyrics, but rather "semi-charmed kind of life." (Another candidate for the title was "Doot-Doot-Doot, Doot-Doot-Doot-Doo", because those were the lyrics people most remembered.) "Can You Put the Past Away?" is really called "Jumper". It's not called "I Will Understand," either. Their final hit was "Never Let You Go", not "Turn Around". |

The Who: "Baba O'Riley" is more commonly known as "Teenage Wasteland". Some even call it "Out Here In The Field" after the first line. iTunes actually calls it "Teenage Wasteland" as well, which is misleading, to say the least. "Baba O'Riley" does recycle some lyrics from an earlier song legitimately called "Teenage Wasteland", but that one only exists as a Pete Townshend demo and was never recorded by The Who. Freaks and Geeks references this confusion. When the main character calls it "Teenage Wasteland", her friend gets annoyed and corrects her. Never Mind the Buzzcocks had a subtle nod to this as well during an Intros Round for one episode. Rufus Hound recognized it almost immediately when fellow panelists Phill Jupitus and James Blunt sang the opening riff, and even sang along at one point: Joe Pera Talks With You also comments on this. After hearing the song for the first time, Joe calls the radio station to find out the name of the song, and the DJ mentions that the song is called "Baba O'Riley", even though they say "Teenage Wasteland" a million times and "Baba O'Riley" zero times. It's only one letter out, but that other synth-heavy rock anthem from Who's Next is "Won't Get Fooled Again", not "Don't Get Fooled Again", even though the latter is what they actually sing. And it's not called "Meet the New Boss", either. |

The only single off of Emotional Technology is actually titled "Somnambulist (Simply Being Loved)." Between 75% of the refrain consisting of the subtitle and the U.S. home version of DDR Extreme including it with the title switched around, it's usually referred to as just "Simply Being Loved." (In fact, it doesn't even have its main title in the lyrics. The closest it somes to title-dropping is: "So little joy, so little joy / It's complicated / I feel I'm stumbling in the dark / Somnambulated.") | |

CHVRCHES: "Get Out" is often mistakenly called "Kaleidoscope". This one is a bit of an odd example, in that the song actually has two refrains, and the title does come from one of them—but many listeners assume that it's the other one. "Tether" is widely assumed to be called "Capable" or "Feeling Capable". Particularly understandable, since the Eric Prydz remix of the song (the most well-known version) is literally nothing but the refrain. |

Oh, so very, very many Michael Nesmith songs, from before, during, and after his time with The Monkees: "Papa Gene's Blues", "Nine Times Blue", "Daily Nightly", "Auntie's Municipal Court", "Tapioca Tundra", "Writing Wrongs", "Never Tell a Woman Yes", "Admiral Mike", "The Crippled Lion", "Hollywood", "Carlisle Wheeling", "Propinquity", "Some of Shelley's Blues", "Cruisin'" (a.k.a. "Lucy and Ramona").... At one point his record label supervisor told him to knock it off and write songs that were "just good clean fun," so Nez wrote a song called "Good Clean Fun" that still didn't have those words in the lyrics. Nez is awesome. |

Some background tracks in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask are commonly referred to by the ocarina song that they derive from such as "Lost Woods" being called "Saria's Song", "Lon Lon Ranch" being called "Epona's Song" and "Windmill Hut" being called "Song of Storms". However, in Super Smash Bros. at least, the Lost Woods theme is named "Saria's Song" (and same for the Windmill Hut being "Song of Storms"), potentially making it the reverse. | |

Cryoshell: "Creeping in my Soul" is sometimes subjected to this. Due to a repeated refrain, it is often called "Creeps from the Deep". Creeping in my soul is also repeated several times throughout the song, but part of the confusion stems from the fact that the song was featured in a video called Creeps from the Deep. For whatever reason, it is also sometimes has the subtitle "Deep Dive" added to the title (ie. "Creeping in my Soul (Deep Dive))". They also have a song "Closer to the Truth", often called "Take me Home", as that phrase is uttered multiple times throughout the song, while the title is buried at the end of the chorus. |

Sonic the Hedgehog: The Japanese/European opening song of Sonic the Hedgehog CD is called "Sonic - You Can Do Anything", not "Toot Toot Sonic Warrior." The credits song is "Cosmic Eternity - Believe in Yourself", but neither of the lyrics appear in this order, so it is sometimes misnamed "Cosmic Eternity" or "Believe in Yourself" individually. The actual song that was used as the ending theme for Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is called "Sweet Sweet Sweet", not "Sweet Dream" (though the English version of the song released later was actually titled "Sweet Dreams"). The main theme from Sonic R, "Super Sonic Racing", is sometimes misnamed "Everybody's Super Sonic Racing". Likewise, the ending theme, "Number One", is much more commonly called "You're My Number One". Shadow's theme from Sonic Adventure 2 is erroneously titled by some as "All of the Darkness," based on the lyric "All of the darkness that dozes in the dusk" — except, close as that sounds, those aren't the actual lyrics (that'd be "Oh dark, the darkness that dozes in the dusk"). The song's actual title is the immediately following line, "Throw It All Away." Similarly, Dr. Eggman's theme is not titled "I Am the Eggman," it's actually "E.G.G.M.A.N.", which is actually in the song, though it's hard to spot (it's chanted by robotic voices in the background). Amy's theme is "My Sweet Passion," not "Hearts on Fire" or "Sweet, Sweet, You're So Sweet" or any variation. Knuckles's theme is titled "Unknown from M.E.", not any variation of "Born on an Island in the Heavens" or "Here I am, tougher than the rest of them..." Big's theme is "Lazy Days ~Livin' in Paradise~", not "Welcome to Our Paradise." Tails' theme is not "I Wanna Fly High" but "Believe in Myself". And moving away from character themes, the song that plays during Shadow's fight against the Biolizard is called "Supporting Me", not "To the Pressure" or "Losing You." The theme to the level City Escape is actually titled "Escape from the City," which does appear in the lyrics, but possibly as an inversion of this trope some think it's also called "City Escape." It's also sometimes incorrectly titled "Follow Me". Knuckles's level songs all have a Non-Appearing Title: Wild Canyon ("Kick the Rock!"), Pumpkin Hill ("A Ghost's Pumpkin Soup"), Aquatic Mine ("Dive into the Mellow"), Death Chamber ("Deeper"), Meteor Herd ("Space Trip Steps"). The stage names, however, all appear in the lyrics. White Jungle's theme is titled "Rhythm and Balance," not "Shadow, Don't Make Me Upset." Team Sonic's theme in Sonic Heroes is titled "We Can (Theme of Team Sonic)", not "We Can Make It" or any variation on "So Much Better Than Alone." The main theme of Shadow the Hedgehog is not titled "I Am." It's actually "I Am... All of Me", despite those two phrases never actually appearing in that order until the very LAST line of the song. And it's not "I Am All of Me" or even "I Am (All of Me)" either, the actual title does contain an ellipsis. Although, the title is still referred to as "I Am" in the game's music player. In Psyguy of Fireball 20XL's parody dub of Sonic the Hedgehog: The Movie, Knuckles complains "Aww, I hate 'In His World'" when the tune starts playing during Sonic's first battle with Metal Sonic. The song is actually called "His World." (And "In his world" doesn't even appear in the lyrics, the line goes "In this world (His world!), where life is strong...") |

Weirdly, it seems "My Immortal" doesn't get confused as much, maybe because the chorus is not very giving up of an in-song title. Or because of the fanfiction named after it. | |

Cake: "Nugget" is often mistitled "Shut The Fuck Up," since the latter phrase makes up about half the chorus and it's got a Non-Appearing Title. Chicken McNuggets get mentioned in the lyrics, but that probably couldn't have been used as a title without getting in trouble with McDonald's. "The Distance" is often known instead as "She's Going The Distance". |

Korn: "Freak On A Leash" is often known as "Something Takes A Part Of Me". Granted, the song's title is only dropped once in the second verse, whereas the latter line is used prominently over the course of the whole song. "Falling Away from Me" (the title of which ends each verse and briefly shows up in the bridge) is commonly referred to as "Beating Me Down" (after the repeated line from the chorus). "Oildale (Leave Me Alone)" was first introduced to fans in concert as simply "Oildale", named after one of the areas the band members grew up in but having no relation to the lyrics. It was most likely just a working title that they never intended to use (as they've been known to do), but the fans grew attached to it, and there was backlash when there were reports that the song was going to be released as "Leave Me Alone", the most prominent line in the chorus. They eventually settled on the "Phrase 1 (Phrase 2)" format as a compromise. No, "I'll Never Love Again" isn't the song's title. It is titled "Never Never", however. |

Live: A very early song tends to be called "Give It Up" or "Let It Go" due to the words being uttered frequently during it. It's actually "Operation Spirit (Tyranny of Tradition)". Only one word of the actual title is used in the song, and it's in the first verse. That song that many people think is called "Lay Me Down"? It's actually called "All Over You". Both phrases appear in the chorus, but the former gets more emphasis than the latter. For that matter, the band's best-known song is not entitled "Oh Now Feel It Coming Back Again"; it's entitled "Lightning Crashes" (which are actually the first words in the song). |

Nile: There is a song called "Kafir", which is the Arabic word meaning "infidel", and while it does include the word itself, is sometimes mistakenly referred to by the main refrain of the chorus, "There Is No God".

The Finnish version of "One of Us" from The Lion King II: Simba's Pride is not called "Tänne hän kuulu ei" note "He Doesn't Belong Here", as the refrain would suggest, but "Maanpako" note "Exile" as revealed in the credits. The English version also gets frequently mislabeled as "Not One Of Us" (which does, to be fair, more accurately represent the song's context), even on its Disney wiki page, despite the movie soundtrack listing it as "One of Us." | |

Savage Garden: "I Want You" is almost exclusively remembered as "Chica Cherry Cola" (or some spelling variant), despite the fact that "I Want You" is most of the chorus and "Chica Cherry Cola" is in the bridge once. This is likely because "Chica Cherry Cola" is distinctive, and "I Want You" is more generic. (The Savage Garden song doesn't have a "She's So Heavy" section, does it?) It's "Affirmation", not "I Believe". And "Truly Madly Deeply" is not called "Stand With You on a Mountain". |

The Bryan Adams song is "Summer of '69", not "Best Days of My Life." Both phrases feature in the lyrics, but "best days of my life" ends the chorus, a typical position for a title, while "the summer of '69" appears once in a verse and then forms the outro. Interestingly, the original title was "Best Days of My Life," and the phrase appeared much more often in the first draft of the lyrics. | |

SpongeBob SquarePants: An odd example: the theme song is officially named the "SpongeBob SquarePants Theme Song", not just the "SpongeBob Theme," as it's commonly called. This oddly specific title is for a reason; there's a separate, incidental background tune named simply "SpongeBob Theme". Its name was later changed to "Hawaiian Adventures SpongeBob Theme" to help better differentiate it. "Bubble Beat Box" is commonly referred to as the "Walk Cycle song" or the "Lost Episode song", after its most memorable appearance. "Gary's Song" is rarely referred as such, instead usually called "Gary Come Home" after its refrain. |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: "Find a Way" only has its title sung once, and the refrain is "Oh, why?" The title song from EQUESTRIA GIRLS, also known as the "Cafeteria Song", is usually mistaken as "Helping Twilight Win the Crown". The title doesn't even appear in the film version's lyrics. "Time To Come Together", also from Equestria Girls, is also commonly called "Fix It Up" after the line that starts the chorus. Twilight's song as she tries to fit in at Canterlot High is not called "Strange New World", it's "This Strange World", as the credits say. She never says the latter title once. Two songs from the first two seasons, commonly referred to as "Giggle at the Ghosty" and "Smile Smile Smile" were later given the titles of "The Laughter Song" and "The Smile Song" respectively in the first album. A second season song where Rarity sings about enjoying high society was named "Becoming Popular", and not "The Pony Everypony Should Know" as many viewers thought. Later, to help with the confusion, the two titles were officially combined into "Becoming Popular (The Pony Everypony Should Know)". In "The Mane Attraction", Countess Coloratura's song, "The Magic Inside", was previously called "I Am Just a Pony" by fans. The song the Flim Flam brothers sing in "Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000" is called "Flim Flam Brothers" or "The Flim Flam Cider Song", not "The Cider Song", "Opportunity in This Community", or "Flim Flam Brothers' Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000". The song from "Bats!" is called "Bats", not "Stop the Bats". |

Many people do know by now that the "Numa Numa" song is "Dragostea Din Tei" by O-Zone; but, for a long time, it was just "Numa Numa" or "Mai Ya Hee" to everyone. And Memetic Mutation has kicked in so firmly on this one that for many, it may remain "Numa Numa" forever. Plus, "Numa Numa" is easier (for English-speakers) to say and people are lazy. | |

Aerosmith: While recording their legendary "Raising Hell" album, rap pioneers Run–D.M.C. had problems tracking down Aerosmith to ask them to collaborate on the remake of their "Walk This Way." The reason? As Russell "Rapper's Run" Simmons admitted later, they thought both the band and the song were "Toys in the Attic" (which was both the name of the album "Walk This Way" appeared on and a completely different song on that album). It's "Rag Doll," not "Livin' in a Movie", "Daddy's Little Cutie," "Old Tin Lizzy," or anything else. It is also not well-known that the official title of "Dude (Looks Like a Lady)" includes the parentheses. |

The recap song, which starts every verse with “once upon a time� and ends every verse with “here we are in the future� is in fact called "Happily Ever After", which only appears in the first and last verses.

Iron Maiden: This bootleg◊ from the 1992 Fear of the Dark Tour is guilty of the above, as well as "Sanctuary" is referred to as "Sanctuary From the Law" (the fact that Bruce Dickinson is credited as a songwriter in that picture doesn't help either) and "The Clairvoyant" is "Time to Live Time to Die" (the only Maiden example here that's also a Non-Appearing Title). It's also funny how the bootleg is named "The Teenage Werewolf". "Purgatory" isn't called "Please, take me away", "take me away", "so far away", or any combination. "Drifter" can also be found online as "Gonna Sing My Song". "The Evil That Men Do" is not called "Livin' on a Razor's Edge". "Man on the Edge" isn't called "Falling Down" (though the movie that served as inspiration is). They don't have a song called "Freedom", it's called "The Clansman". "The Wicker Man" was once called "Your Time Will Come" on a request thread. (The phrase is said a lot, and "Whoa-oh Oh-oh" just doesn't make for as good of a song title.) They also never did a song called "I'm On My Way". They did, however, do one called "Wildest Dreams". |

The 1973 debut album by avant-garde rock pioneers Henry Cow is entitled The Henry Cow Legend. It has become so popular to refer to the album by the title Leg End — a practice that spoils the joke inherent in the cover art (the cover features an image of a sock, as did the covers to their next two albums) — that the remastered CD was actually entitled LEG END: Original Mix. | |

As surprising as it may seem (being that it's easily one of their most popular songs), there are people who refer to "Bohemian Rhapsody" from A Night at the Opera as either "Nothing Really Matters" or occasionally "Mama" after the only lyric repeated throughout the different parts of the song and the lyric said repeatedly in what's the closest thing to a chorus in the entire song, respectively. Of course, there's also "Galileo", "I'm Just a Poor Boy", "Can't Do This To Me Baby", etc. We would be here all day if we were to list all of the titles the song could potentially be mislabeled; alas the curse of popular music. | |

This manages to happen to every song from Daytona USA. "The King of Speed", the music to the Beginner course, is much more commonly known by the title "Rolling Start", as these two words are belted out twice at the very beginning and the rest of the lyrics are a series of vocalizations by Takenobu Mitsuyoshi. Confusingly, there actually is a song in the game called "Rolling Start"... and it's a truncated remix of "The King of Speed" played during the course's post-race replay and staff roll. The Advanced course's music is well-known for its vocalization of "DAYTONAAAAAA!", to the point that it's mistaken for the song's name. The actual name is the very next lyric: "Let's Go Away". "Sky High", the Expert course's theme, is occasionally misnamed as "I Wanna Fly Sky High" or "Blue Blue Skies", though it doesn't get this as commonly as the other two. |

Pig With The Face Of A Boy's Tetris song is called "A Complete History of the Soviet Union Through the Eyes of a Humble Worker, Arranged to the Melody of Tetris," not "I Am the Man Who Arranges the Blocks." And the melody itself isn't "Tetris song"; it's from Russian folk song "Korobeiniki" (which itself is a victim of this trope — it's not "Oy polnym polna mоya korobushka"). | |

In A Chorus Line, "Dance: Ten; Looks: Three" is named after the first line of the verse. The original title, "Tits and Ass," is the actual refrain, was changed to keep from giving away the joke (and/or avoid offending those casually inspecting the list of numbers). | |

Micky Dolenz wrote the song entitled "Randy Scouse Git" (or, in the U.K., "Alternative Title" as people there actually knew what the phrase meant; most people in the U.S., and Micky himself (who had heard it on a British TV show), did not). If you didn't know the title, you might be forgiven for believing the title to be "Why Don't You Cut Your Hair?" Since the show in question (Till Death Us Do Part) was later adapted for American TV as All in the Family, had Mickey been a Brit visiting the US a few years later, the title might have been "Pinko Polack Meathead". | |

Non-lyrical example: The main musical motif that plays in the Ace Attorney games when pressuring a witness or discovering the culprit is called the "Pursuit" theme for that game. The theme in the first game is titled "Pursuit ~ Cornered", leading some fans to refer to the songs in subsequent games as their "Cornered" theme. | |

The song that begins "I only want to say..." is called "Gethsemane", though it's sometimes labeled as "Gethsemane (I Only Want To Say)". The final number is not "Jesus Christ Superstar" — it's simply "Superstar". |

Family Guy: Looking for that song that you probably know as "The Bird Is the Word"? Well, you won't find it under that name, it's actually called "Surfin' Bird", by The Trashmen, although it is based partly on an R&B song called "The Bird's the Word" by The Rivingtons. ("Papa-Ooh-Mau-Mau" is another popular "title.", and the name of the other Rivingtons songs used as the base). The episode the song was featured in ("I Dream Of Jesus") actually mentioned that the song was called "Surfin' Bird". |

The original English opening theme for Dragon Ball Z was not officially called "Rock the Dragon" at the time it was used, with the official soundtrack simply calling it "Main Title"; however, Funimation would retroactivley use this fan name when they released the "Rock the Dragon" DVD set in 2013, which came with a lyric sheet for the theme. And if YouTube is anything to go by, plenty of fans seem to believe the insert song played several times during Dragon Ball Super's Tournament of Power is titled "Ka-Ka-Kachi Daze"; it's actually called "Ultimate Battle". Many anime cover singers who took on the song early on usually either used the mistaken title or use both the actual and mistaken titles. | |

The main theme of Shadow the Hedgehog is not titled "I Am." It's actually "I Am... All of Me", despite those two phrases never actually appearing in that order until the very LAST line of the song. And it's not "I Am All of Me" or even "I Am (All of Me)" either, the actual title does contain an ellipsis. Although, the title is still referred to as "I Am" in the game's music player. | |

When EarthBound Beginnings was originally released, it was accompanied with a soundtrack containing lyricised versions of several songs from the game. Some familiar with the lyrics tend to assume that the name of the first (and most famous) song on the album is "I Believe in You." Some unfamiliar with the lyrics tend to call it "Pollyanna's Theme." Turns out both groups are wrong — the name of the song is simply "Pollyanna" (though to be fair, the full title for the lyricised version is technically "Pollyanna (I Believe in You)"), and there is no character by that name in any game in the series. (There is a "Paula" and an "Ana", but neither character is closely associated with the song in question.) "Pollyanna" is simply a term used to describe the kind of extremely positive person the song is about. | |
