another obvious one:
mr. brownstone by GNR

and there's also: smart patrol/mr. dna by devo, mr. suit by wire and mr. & mrs. by imperial teen.

[veganinja]

Hmm. I only know about 3 GNR songs (and they're all pretty good, but none start with Mr.).

[eatsdirt]

Mr. Brownstone is about heroin! you totally need that on your mix.

Mr. Blue Sky, by E.L.O.?

[mode7overworld]

Carpenters - (Please) Mr. Postman

[veganinja]

Fair enough. I still maintain that you listen to the weirdest fucking selection of music ever (even if ELO was on the Eternal Sunshine soundtrack-- I just think of them as that band that my dad has 8-tracks of in his old closet in his parents' house in suburban New Jersey).

That's two hours twenty minutes of Mr. Music without counting any of the other songs on your list, except for Mr. Jones (Crows + Heads), Mr. E, and Mr. Brownstone.

I have eight hours of songs where the first word is "no" apparently.

[veganinja]

You're too fucking good at this, as with most things that involve anality and pop culture.

I made that list by sorting my I-tunes by title and copying down anything in the M-R section. And I just realized that when I did that I left out any song titles that started with "mister", of which there are appear to be two: Marilyn Manson's "Mister Superstar" and Del the Funkee Homosapien's "mistadobbalina".

[veganinja]

I assumed you did it with a search engine and not by hand. I meant the fact that you have all those songs.
