I like titles with the word "song" (or maybe "session", or even "album") in it. It names its own thing and this adds some immediacy (eponymous albums do that too).
I know there are a lot, but can you throw a few examples that you like ?


I like this one: it's a bombastic title but the album content is powerful too

Since I was little I listened to Elton John's "your song" and wished I could dedicate (or be dedicated) such a beautiful song in my life. And he mentions "song" quite a few times during the song (forgive the redundancy Razz).

It's a little bit funny this feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can easily hide, I
Don't have much money but boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where we both could live
If I was a sculptor, but then again no
Or a man who makes potions in a traveling show
Oh I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
My gift is my song
And this one's for you

And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world

I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind
While I wrote this song
It's for people like you that
Keep it turned on
So excuse me forgetting
But these things I do
You see I've forgotten
If they're green or they're blue
Anyway, the thing is, what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen

And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but
Now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world


Then there is blur's "song 2" which wanted to mock Grunge and became a fantastic Grunge song.

Leonard Cohen's "songs of love and hate" has already been mentioned. More than songs, he could have said "poems of love and hate" though that would have sold less.

Yes, I like the simplicity of this one.

So with Songs of Leonard Cohen & Songs of Love and Hate already mentioned + "Recent Songs (1979) & Ten New songs (2001) that makes 5 albums of him
