Best Stereolab song titles
Damn, I really love the groop's song titles - unrivalled in the world of pop and rock I'd even go so far as to say...
Anyway, I thought I'd make my favourite 5 which somehow turned into a Top 10 (I tried to totally ignore the actual musical content of the songs):
International Colouring Contest
"...Sudden Stars"
You Used to Call Me Sadness
The Noise of Carpet
The Flower Called Nowhere
Italian Shoes Continuum
Lo Boob Oscillator
How to Play Your Internal Organs Overnight
Cybele's Reverie
Visionary Road Maps
Anyone else want a try?

The Ecstatic Static
Plastic Mile
Transona Five
Vonal Declosion
Mass Riff
Seeperbold
Hallucinex
Retrograde Mirror Form
Strobo Acceleration
New Orthophony
Contronatura
Motoroller Scalatron
Harmonium
Outer Accelerator
Lock-Groove Lull
Ronco Symphony
That was fun. I like the titles with invented words or having a conotation of movement and the other choices just sound cool.

Kyberneticka Babicka, Pt. 1 (or 2 for that matter)
Spool of Collusion
Delugeoisie
Lelekato Sugar
Supha Jaiantov
Blue Milk
Velvet Water
The Flower Called Nowhere
The Noise of Carpet
Emperor Tomato Ketchup
'Get a Shot of the Refrigerator'
Puncture in the Radax Permutation
Self Portrait With "Electric Brain"
Explosante Fixe
International Colouring Contest
We're Not Adult Orientated
The Emergency Kisses
Cellulose Sunshine
Neon Beanbag
At least 2 of these titles (Explosante Fixe and The Emergency Kisses) allude to Andre Breton. And, obviously, I'm a big fan of Surrealism.

the fact that electric brain is in quotations really makes this song title

Agreed! (although "with" oughtn't be capitalized, since it's a preposition)
