What songtitles get used an awful lot? I've seen numerous metal bands with a song called "Hold On". Kind of related, but its hard to find a power metal album that doesnt contain the words "destiny", "heart", "wings", and or "steel" in the song titles.

I've got an obvious one.

"metal".  Every single metal band or metal subgenre band MUST have a song with "metal", right?

EDIT: I guess I misread the original post.  You're looking for over used titles not overused words in titles.

I'll need to think about that.  "Hold On" definitely is one that comes to mind though

I wish that people would stop naming their albums with a number.

I agree with you about "Metal" in the title, you can also add "Rock" to that list. We know you're a rock and/or metal band, you don't need to remind us in your lyrics.

That's the first one that came to my mind. A website I checked listed 49 different songs with that title.

Agreed! Also self-titled albums convey a lack of creativity.

Eh, matter of opinion I guess. Take your pick. Although some of these are probably the same song, just different artist's interpretations.

Without You by Andy Russell
Without You by Frankie Carle And His Orchestra with Marjorie Hughes
Without You by Eddie Fisher with Hugo Winterhalter Orchestra
Without You by Johnny Tillotson
Without You (I Cannot Live) by Matt Monro
Without You by Nilsson
Without You by The Doobie Brothers
Without You by Jessi Colter
Flying With Broken Wings (Without You) by Angel
Without You by Susie Allanson
Without You by The Three Degrees
Without You by Buck Owens
Without You (Not Another Lonely Night) by Franke & The Knockouts
Without You by T.G. Sheppard
Without You by Chas Jankel
Without You by David Bowie
Without You by Touch
Without You by Peabo Bryson And Regina Belle
Without You by George LaMond
Without You by Motley Crue
Without You by Air Supply
Without You by Lindy Layton
A Picture Of Me (Without You) by Lorrie Morgan
(Without You) What Do I Do With Me by Tanya Tucker

Me personally, despite the rest of the album being a big, steamy turd, I did like the Van Halen one. Dark Horseman said he's partial to the Clay Aiken version, but don't tell anyone. Wink

"Without You" is ridiculously overused!

Although songs with the word "Rock" may have a larger number.

Maybe there too. It was all over the internet. Mark Gormley had made these obscure music videos with The Uncharted Zone for a few years to Youtube until Without You went viral.
