Names -> Song Titles Not Used as Lyrics -> H
Some songs have titles that aren't used in the lyrics, and end up becoming better known for their lyrics than their title. Bob Dylan's "Rainy Day Women #12 & 35" is better known for the refrain "Everybody must get stoned" than it is for the title.
Band | Song | Comments & Submittor Name | ||
| Harry Belafonte | Jamaica Farewell | "Farewell" is nowhere in the lyrics - Gretchen Wieners | ||
| Harry Chapin | Dreams Go By | He mentions years going by and dreams flying away and coming and going, but he never says "Dreams Go By" in the song - Raphael | ||
| Harvey Danger | Flagpole Sitta | I'm not sick, but I'm not well./ And I'm so hot 'cause I'm in Hell. - Brian Kelly | ||
| Hawkwind | The Watcher | "A great cut (written by Lemmy), that finishes a very trippy album, it somehow dont mesh with the theme. Perhaps, the rest of the band was "watching" Lemmy's razor-wire beak slashing through the acid-eggshell that was Hawkwind." - princejellyfish | ||
| Hellogoodbye | Call 'N Return | If only you were here, things would be more magical If I were there, tight now would be more radical You're so not near, I'm wishing I could place a call - Katy | ||
| Hootie and the Blowfish | Old Man and Me | The first line is 'Well an old man said to me', but it should be titled 'When I get to Heaven' because that's what's uttered more in this song. - Paul Warren | ||
| Hootie and the Blowfish | Hannah Jane | Should be titled "She'll be gone" because Hannah Jane is nowhere to be found even in the lyrics! - Paul Warren |
