Let's take this for a spin.
Band Name: List of prehistoric foraminiferans
Before doing this, I thought 'What about those freakishly long article names? Wouldn't it be hilarious for someone to get that?' Stupid karma. I can't even pronounce the name. Let's just abbreviate it to LOPF. The next one better not be ridiculously long...
Album Name: Red Wing (Amtrak station)
I'm cheating and calling it 'Red Wing' with Amtrak station as a subtitle. God I suck at this.
Tracks:
1. List of schools in Barbados
Again. Goddamnit. I guess it could kinda work, maybe it could list them as part of the chorus or something (Alexandra, River Road, All Saints, Eagle Hall...).
2. Dendropsophus giesleri
How the hell am I gonna get through 13 more tracks?! Perhaps there'd be some ribbit-y noises in the song...
3. Breast Reconstruction
Oh sweet lord! This is ridiculous! Maybe it's about some poor disfigured woman who can't get a date? Of course my friend got 'British Traditional Wicca' by Not About Heroes which are the coolest names ever.
4. Recursive Definition
Sadly, this is the best name so far. It sounds kinda alright as a track name...
5. Resetarits
Finally, a good name. Kinda abstract but I'll take what I can get.
6. The Very Hush Hush
Is it cheating if you get an actual band name? Cause those are always cool sounding. This'd be a bit rock-outy with
7. List of States in the Holy Roman Empire (R)
And I thought it couldn't get any worse. This seems kinda death metal to me but I really hate death metal. So maybe... no idea. At least I'm halfway now.
8. Oak Tree Derby
Nice old-towny feel. Is it bad that I hear all the songs Death Cab-esque
9. Gore Bay-Manitoulin Airport
Pretty terrible name. But I guess Airports are places for farewells, so it could be a semi-serious song about leaving love.
10. Bure (woreda)
I got an Ethiopian town called Bure... Wiki hates me. A commentary on third world countries perhaps?
11. Striker (Transformers)
Can I just call it Striker? It sounds so much better without the addendum. Not very much into Transformers.
12. Qormi FC
I'm not even in to bloody football! Maybe the lyrics would be an anecdote about being in the club.
13. John Crossland
Again with the sport. Must they torture me? I can't even think of anything for this.
14. Christopher Wood (Scottish painter)
That's it. Those little brackets are being ignored. Why on earth I'd have two tracks with people's names in a row I have no idea. One left. *crosses fingers*
15. Vivian Gray
This could be one of those yearn-y love songs that indie bands love. She's apparently some actress who seems to have been in nothing. I'm not sure who put the bit in about her dating Orlando Bloom but... *snort*.
