Album Title Drop

Sometimes, albums aren't named for one of the songs on them -- they're named for one of the lyrics within these songs. So, when you're listening, you think "Oh, that's where the title comes from!"

A subtrope of Title Drop. Title Track is a specific form of this. See also Cover Drop.

"Take a step off your soapbox and see
 * Devo's "Q: Are we not men? (A: We are Devo!)" comes from "Jocko Homo".
 * "Smooth Noodle Maps" comes from "DEVO Has Feelings Too".

 * The name of the popular album Revenge by British pop rock duo Eurythmics is derived from the lyric "Sometimes revenge can be so sweet..." in the eigth track, "A Little Of You".
 * The extended intro to the music video of "Would I Lie to You?" drops the phrase, "Be yourself tonight", which is the title of the album the song comes from.

 * Oceanborn - mentioned in Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean ("I will die for the love of the mermaid / Her seduction, beauty, and scorn / Welcome to the end of your life / Hail the Oceanborn!").
 * Century Child - mentioned in Dead To The World ("As he died, he will return to die in me again / Weaving the cloth, giving birth to the Century Child").

 * Dark Passion Play - mentioned in The Poet and the Pendulum (whose title was the original title of the album) ("The morning dawned upon his altar / Remains of the dark passion play").
 * Imaginaerum - Not the straightest example, but the first single (Storytime) contains the line "Imaginarium, a dream emporium" (The album's title was originally "Imaginarium" before being changed).
 * "Brain Damage", the second-to-last track on Pink Floyd's 1973 album The Dark Side of the Moon, features the lyric "I'll see you on the dark side of the moon".
 * This led to some people assuming that the song's name was "The Dark Side of the Moon".
 * And "Eclipse" finishes with "There is no dark side of the moon really. As a matter of fact, it's all dark." (the rest of the quote "The only thing that makes it look alight is the sun", is known by fans, but not included on the album.)

 * And Feast On Scraps is from "Bent 4 U" ("Several hours and several ways I'll feast on scraps thrown from you")
 * And Flavors of Entanglement is from "Moratorium" ("I do need a breather from the flavors of entanglement...").
 * Sting's album Mercury Falling starts and ends with those words as a whole album; no tracks, however, bear that name and they are not repeated anywhere else in the album.
 * Every studio album that Thin Lizzy released inclued a title track (that used the track name in the lyrics), with the sole exception of their debut album.

 * All That You Can't Leave Behind comes from "Walk On."
 * Achtung Baby is whispered at some point during the song "The Fly".
 * It's also a Shout Out to a line from The Producers.
 * Rattle and Hum is from the song "Bullet the Blue Sky" (In the locust wind / Comes a rattle and hum / Jacob wrestled the angel / and the angel was overcome). The song was originally from predecessor The Joshua Tree, but Rattle and Hum features a live version of the song.
 * How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb comes from a line from the bonus track "Fast Cars".

 * The song "Miss the Misery" has "Don't change our mind, Your wasting light".
 * Played with There's Nothing Left to Lose's "Generator": "When there's nothing left to use". ("Word Forward", recorded much later, includes "Just a simple man, with nothing left to lose")
 * Semisonic's Feeling Strangely Fine never has its title directly appear in a song, but "All Worked Out" has the line "It's strange but you're feeling fine."
 * Shawn Colvin's album A Few Small Repairs, named for a line from her (one?) hit "Sunny Came Home".
 * And one of the more blatant examples, Simon and Garfunkel's album Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme, from a line in "Scarborough Fair."
 * Arctic Monkeys' Favourite Worst Nightmare was named for a line in the song "D Is For Dangerous" ("I think you should know you're his favourite worst nightmare")
 * Muse's album Black Holes and Revelations is named for a line in the chorus of the song "Starlight".
 * The Spin Doctors, Pocket Full of Kryptonite, a line in the song "Jimmy Olsen's Blues".
 * Live, Mental Jewelry, a line in the song "Mirror Song".
 * They Might Be Giants, of course, play with this trope with the song "Theme From Flood", which is little more than an excuse to title-drop the name of the album.
 * The Divine Comedy's "Theme From Casanova" serves the exact same function.
 * The Counting Crows album "This Desert Life" is named for a line in the song "High Life."
 * There's also Films About Ghosts.
 * The Counting Crows have an odd example on their debut album "August and Everything After". The line doesn't appear on any of the songs on the album: it does, however, appear in the lyrics of an unpublished song that serves as the album's cover art. Saturday Nights and Sunday Mornings is a little different.
 * Similarly, the Barenaked Ladies' album Maroon has some lyrics that include the word "Maroon" inside the CD case, but the song doesn't actually exist.
 * The Sonic Youth album "Daydream Nation" has its title in "Hyperstation" (Daydreaming days in a / Daydream nation).
 * Radiohead's album Hail to the Thief has the title in the lyrics of "2+ 2=5 (The Lukewarm.)".
 * And In Rainbows has said title in the song "Reckoner". If you heard it before anyone told you you have the sonic abilities of a God.
 * Pablo Honey has an album title drop in the form of Spoken Word in Music: It's named for part of a Jerky Boys crank call, and the relevant part of this call can just barely be heard towards the end of "How Do You" ("Hello? Pablo, honey?").
 * Kid A features its title in the heavily distorted and nigh-incomprehensible speaking at the beginning of "Everything in its Right Place."
 * The title of The Bends shows up in the song of the same name.
 * The Nirvana album Nevermind has its title in "Smells Like Teen Spirit" (Oh well, whatever / Never mind).
 * Elbow album "The Seldom Seen Kid" has its title in "Grounds for Divorce" (And Sundays are for drinking with the seldom seen kid).
 * Borderline example: Oasis's (What's the Story) Morning Glory? has a track on it called "Morning Glory", the lyrics to which include "What's the story, morning glory?"
 * Although, it should be of note that that lyric is originally from Bye Bye Birdie.
 * Inverted in their following album 'Be Here Now', which contains a track named 'Be Here Now' but the phrase is not sung in either the song or the rest of the album.
 * Oasis' "To Be Where There's Life" does this: "Dig out your soul cos here we go"
 * The Stone Roses compilation album Turns Into Stone takes it's title from the final line of their song 'One Love', "turns into dust or turns into stone."
 * The title of Modest Mouse's album Good News For People Who Love Bad News is a lyric from the song "Bury Me With It"
 * Also the Shins album Chutes Too Narrow is from the song "Young Pilgrims".
 * The debut REM EP "Chronic Town" has its title in "Carnival of Sorts (Box Car)".
 * Reveal's title is conspicously prominent in "I've Been High".
 * Monster is named for two different lines in "Circus Envy", as well as for just being a noisy album.
 * Treble Charger's fifth album, Detox, was plucked from a line in the single "Hundred Million".

What it's like on the ground

Check your ego in detox, baby

Cause you're coming unwound and it's killing me"

"''A hundred million suns and stars
 * Three of Catherine Wheel's albums include the album title in a song with a different title:
 * Ferment: "I'm fermenting, can't you see?" from the song "I Want to Touch You"
 * Chrome: "It fulfills my sense of real, a chrome protection" from the song "Crank"
 * Adam and Eve: "Tree to fruit, apple to seed, you are the A in Adam and Eve" from the song "Delicious"
 * Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides Now" does this for Clouds - clouds being the subject of the first verse of the song.
 * Petra had three. The first, On Fire, is a bit of a fake-out because the first track is "All Fired Up", but then "Hit You Where You Live", has the real title drop (shouted, even). Unseen Power has a somewhat shoehorned-in spoken one at the very end of the album (a British-sounding voice saying "You can't really see it... and yet, you know it's there... like some sort of unseen power"). Finally, Wake-Up Call is named for a line from "Sleeping Giant."
 * Blue is title dropped in nearly every song, to great effect. Not only is the central song on the album called "Blue", but All I Want has 'then we both get so blue', My Old Man has 'keeping away my blues' and 'them lonesome blues collide', Little Green has 'her eyes are blue', California has 'just gives you the blues', and A Case Of You has 'the blue tv screen light'.
 * The Dave Matthews Band's album Under the Table and Dreaming is a lyric from the song "Ants Marching". The album Before These Crowded Streets is a lyric from the song "The Dreaming Tree".
 * Dream Theater title-drops the album names in the lyrics to songs in a few of their albums.
 * When Dream And Day Unite: "Only A Matter Of Time" ("And though the time will come when dream and day unite")
 * Images And Words: "Wait For Sleep" ("Where images and words are running deep")
 * Metropolis Part 2: Scenes From A Memory - The main title is never mentioned, but the subtitle is in the song "Home" ("Decadent scenes from a memory")
 * In an interesting version of this trope, the phrase "Scenes From a Memory" is actually used in the song "Metropolis Part 1: The Miracle and the Sleeper", from the album "Images and Words", so the title drop is from an older album, from the song that the album's title is a "sequel" to.
 * Octavarium is the title of the last song in the album ("Trapped inside this Octavarium")
 * In addition to the obvious ones listed above, the title for Train of Thought appears as an instrumental called "Stream of Consciousness".
 * Systematic Chaos: "Constant Motion", almost ("Random thoughts of neat disorder") (Neat disorder = systematic chaos)
 * Six Degrees Of Inner Turbulence kind of does it with the line "The turbulence deep inside" from "Losing Time/Grand Finale" on Disc 2.
 * A Change Of Seasons, partially ("Seasons change and so can I" from "Another World")
 * Awake: "Where there is reason, tonight I'm awake", exerpt from "The Silent Man"
 * Van Morrison often names his albums after non-titular lyrics: Veedon Fleece (from "You Don't Pull No Punches But You Don't Push The River"), Common One ("Summertime in England"), No Guru, No Method, No Teacher ("In The Garden"), Poetic Champions Compose ("Queen of The Slipstream").
 * Elvis Costello did this a lot: My Aim Is True (from "Alison"), Punch the Clock (from "The Greatest Thing"), King of America (from "Brilliant Mistake"), Blood and Chocolate (from "Uncomplicated"), Taking Liberties (from "Crawling to the U.S.A.") and Brutal Youth (from "Favourite Hour").
 * He also has an Album Title Drop that's somewhat hidden: This Year's Model was inspired by "(I Don't Want To Go To) Chelsea" ("Capital punishment/She's last year's model"), which was left off the U.S. version of the original album, but has been anthologized in several other places. Also, one of the other songs on the album is titled "This Year's Girl".
 * Billy Joel's Cold Spring Harbor takes its title from a line in "Everybody Loves You Now".
 * Elton John's Ice on Fire takes its title from a line in "Nikita".
 * Played with with Lullabies to Paralyze by Queens of the Stone Age, where the album title comes from a line in "Mosquito Song", a song on the band's previous album.
 * The title of Peaches' debut The Teaches of Peaches is cribbed from a line in "Fuck the Pain Away".
 * The title of The Strokes' album "Room on Fire" comes from a line in "Reptilia": The room is on fire as she's fixing her hair.
 * Starflyer 59's Leave Here a Stranger gets its title from the repeated outro of "I Like Your Photographs".
 * The O.C. Supertones often title drop previous albums in their songs.
 * While Supertones Strike Back is named for its first track, "Grounded"--from the next album, Chase the Sun--begins with the lyrics "I strike back like the Empire".
 * Loud and Clear is named for a line from "Return of the Revolution". Then "Radio Plays"--off the next studio album, Hi-Fi Revival--ends with the lyrics "So loud and clear".
 * Hi-Fi Revival itself gets its name from a brief, spoken-word interlude in "Radio Plays".
 * Snow Patrol's "A Hundred Million Suns" comes from a line in "The Planets Bend Between Us":

the sea filled in this silence''"

""The old fart smelled this thru his important breather holes / Cleverly he dialed from within from the outside we observed / That the nose of the wooden mask / Where the holes had just been a moment ago / Was now smooth amazingly blended camouflaged in / With the very intricate rainbow trout replica""
 * Snow Patrol seem to like this trope; their previous two albums "Final Straw" and "Eyes Open" also use it.
 * And Fallen Empires has "Fallen Empires", which doubles also as a Title Track.
 * The Influents's "Some of the Young" is a repeated line in "Life, and Life Only", the first instance: we climb so high, from it all / And I guess we owe it all to some of the young. Interestingly, the phrase "Life, and Life Only" never occurs in the song, one listening to it for the first time would probably guess the title to be "Some of the Young".
 * Trapt's Someone in Control takes its title from a line in "Lost Realist". Likewise with Only Through the Pain and "Black Rose".
 * Soul Asylum's Let your dim light shine takes its name from the track "Promises Broken", "Your dim light shines from so far away". Similarly, the title of Grave Dancers Union comes from the song "Without A Trace".
 * Ben Folds Five's Whatever and Ever Amen is a line from the song "Battle of Who Could Care Less"
 * The Corrs' album In Blue is named for a line from the song "Give Me A Reason."
 * And their earlier Talk On Corners takes its title from a line in "Queen Of Hollywood". (And that is still my fifth favourite album and I'm twenty-nine.)
 * Architecture in Helsinki's Places Like This is taken from a line in "Hold Music."
 * of Montreal's Skeletal Lamping goes a step further, being apparently taken from a line from a song on their previous full album, Hissing Fauna, Are You The Destroyer?, namely "Faberge Falls For Shuggie."
 * The titles for their newest album False Priest and an upcoming EP The Controllersphere also take their names from the same line in "Faberge Falls For Shuggie" as Skeletal Lamping.
 * The titles of Van Halen albums Women and Children First and Fair Warning are mentioned in songs from those albums, "Could This Be Magic?" and "Mean Steet", respectively. A Different Kind of Truth is mentioned in "Bullethead" (though th liner notes spell it "true").
 * The Offspring's Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace is half and half. The album has a track called "Rise and Fall", and the "rage and grace" part comes from a line in the song "Fix You" (She wakes up, rage and grace)
 * In addition, their album ''Splinter' takes its name from the song on it, "Long Way Home", and its line "I'm splintered by my own desire"
 * Alan Jackson's A Lot About Livin' (And a Little 'bout Love) is named for a line in its single "Chattahoochee".
 * Roxette has also done this a couple of times. Their album Have a Nice Day takes its title from a line in "You Can't Put Your Arms Around What's Already Gone". There's also Look Sharp!, which is shouted near the end of "Dressed for Success". However, this is probably an inversion of the trope. (Most likely, the album title came first and was hastily inserted into the lyrics rather than the lyric inspiring the title of the album.)
 * The Hollies' A Crazy Steal takes its title from a line in "Hello to Romance".
 * Paul McCartney's Flowers in the Dirt comes from a line in "That Day Is Done".
 * His album Chaos and Creation in the Back Yard doesn't exactly have an exact title drop, but the phrase "chaos and creation" is from the song "Fine Line."
 * Wilco's album title A Ghost Is Born shows up in the lyrics to "Theologians".
 * Yankee Hotel Foxtrot comes from the song "Poor Places" in a sample of a numbers station that appears on The Conet Project compilation.
 * Maximo Park are very fond of this trope:
 * A Certain Trigger comes from the song "Once, A Glimpse", the line: "The night reveals itself to you//Slipping under sliding down//All I need is a certain trigger"
 * Our Earthly Pleasures comes from the song "Russian Literature", the line: "There it is again, that lock of hair that won't sit still//Our earthly pleasures distract us against our will"
 * Quicken The Heart comes from the song "Wraithlike", the line: "Here's a song that finally you can understand//A minor statement meant to counteract the plan//A list of wraithlike things that quicken the heart"
 * The album Transmission by The Tea Party has ITS FFS name dropped about 7 times at the end of the song Transmission.
 * End of the Century by The Ramones gets its title from a lyric in the song "Do You Remember Rock 'n' Roll Radio?"
 * Therapy? have a fair few:
 * Nurse, which is shouted at the start of "Nausea".
 * Infernal Love, from "Epilepsy".
 * Suicide Pact - You First, from "Little Tongues First".
 * One Cure Fits All, from "Dopamine, Seratonin, Adrenaline".
 * Also subverted in that the song "Teethgrinder" contains the title of their first album, Baby Teeth... but is actually on their third album, the afore-mentioned Nurse.
 * "There, There, My Dear" by Dexys Midnight Runners contains the title of its parent album, Searching For The Young Soul Rebels in its spoken middle section.
 * "Too-Rye-Ay", from the bridge of "Come On Eileen".
 * Backyard Babies' Making Enemies Is Good takes its title from the track "Brand New Hate".
 * Another case in which the title comes from a song from another album - Rocket from the Crypt's Hot Charity doesn't feature the song "A+ In Arson Class", from where it gets its name - instead, that song is on The State Of Art Is On Fire.
 * Everclear's Sparkle And Fade is named for a repeated lyric in "Summerland": "We could get lost in the fall /Glimmer, sparkle and fade".
 * XTC's Oranges And Lemons coincidentally ended up with a title similar to a line from their previous album's "Ballet For A Rainy Day" (where it was "orange and lemon" singular) - both are a reference to the English nursery rhyme of that name. They liked the idea enough that they then intentionally named their next album, Nonesuch, after a line from the Oranges And Lemons song "Chalkhills And Children" ("while some nonesuch net holds me aloft").
 * And then Apple Venus was named after a phrase in "Then She Appeared", from Nonsuch.
 * Hum's You'd Prefer An Astronaut is named for a line in "I'd Like Your Hair Long", while Downward Is Heavenward is named for a line in "Afternoon With The Axolotls".
 * Heatmiser's Mic City Sons is named after the first line in the track "Pop In G".
 * Jonathan Settel's album "Through His Eyes" is named after a line in the chorus of "The Wall".
 * The Breeders album Last Splash is named after a line in its hit song "Cannon Ball".
 * The Pixies did this on every single album (Come on Pilgrim from "Levitate Me", Surfer Rosa from "Oh My Golly!", Doolittle from "Mr. Grieves", Bossanova from "Hang Wire"), apart from their last, Trompe le Monde. That one does have a title track, but "Trompe Le Monde" the song doesn't have that phrase anywhere in the lyrics. Funny that.
 * Ben Folds' Way To Normal gets its title from "Effington" ("Making my way to Normal, Illinois"), and Lonely Avenue gets its title from "Doc Pomus" ("And out they pour, the hits and the misses. Turn Me Loose, Lonely Avenue")
 * The Red Hot Chili Peppers' Uplift Mofo Party Plan has them mention the title during two songs, "Fight Like A Brave" and "Organic Anti-Beat Box Band".
 * The title of Hot Space by Queen comes from "Dancer".
 * More unusually, their 1974 album Sheer Heart Attack has the same title as a song that wasn't finished at the time and doesn't appear on the album. It was later recorded and included on 1977's News of the World.
 * The Doors album Weird Scenes Inside the Gold Mine gets its name from a phrase in The End.
 * Joe Diffie's A Thousand Winding Roads album is named for a line in lead-off single "Home".
 * Bright Eyes' I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning is named from Road to Joy, the final song on the album.
 * Bad Religion has done this a couple times:
 * Their first album How Could Hell Be Any Worse? gets its title from the song, "Fuck Armageddon... This is Hell!"
 * Their 2002 album The Process of Belief comes from the song, "Materialist".
 * Generally, they either Title Drop or Album Title Drop. The only aversions in their career are Into the Unknown, Back to the Known, and "New Maps of Hell".
 * The Spring Standards' EP No One Will Know comes from a line in "Your Lie".
 * Switchfoot's album Nothing Is Sound comes from "Happy Is a Yuppie Word".
 * Hammerfall chant their album's name, Unbent, Unbowed, Unbroken, during track 3 of that album, "Fury of the Wild".
 * Me Without You's Catch for us the Foxes in the song "The Soviet"
 * The same goes for their album, It's All Crazy! It's All False! It's All a Dream! It's Alright with the song, "Allah, Allah, Allah"
 * Phish's album A Picture of Nectar is also a line in the song "Cavern".
 * Theory Of A Deadman's Scars And Souvenirs: the album title is heard once in "By The Way".
 * Those Poor Bastards' Satan Is Watching gets its name from a line sung in the first track, "This World Is Evil."
 * Amy Grant's Heart in Motion is from a line in the song "Baby, Baby"; Age to Age is from a line in "El Shaddai."
 * Ball in the House, The Way It Has to Be, from a line in "It's All About Me"

 * Metallica's latest album Death Magnetic is Title Dropped in the last song, "My Apocalypse".
 * The album Selling England By the Pound by Genesis has its title sung during the song Dancing with the Moonlit Knight ("Old man dies/The note he left was signed, "Old Father Thames"/It seems he's drowned/Selling England by the pound.")
 * Delirious' album Mezzamorphis is a Portmanteau of two song titles, "Mezzanine Floor" and "Metamorphis". The latter song ends with the line "Flying high in the blink of an eye, / mezzamorphizzy."
 * Norwegian metal band Covenant (later renamed The Kovenant) drops the album title Nexus Polaris several times during the track Planetary Black Elements.
 * Avenged Sevenfold's City of Evil takes its title from a line in "Beast and the Harlot".
 * The group SHeDAISY has done this twice:
 * The Whole SHeBANG is named for a line in "I Will? But," altered slightly to match the capitalization of their name.
 * Sweet Right Here is named for a line in "Passenger Seat." The song "Don't Worry 'bout a Thing" also title-drops the album in between, Knock on the Sky.
 * Knock On The Sky is title dropped on its own album, in the hidden track.
 * The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus's first studio album Don't You Fake It is titled with a line from the chorus of the opening track, "Shake it! Break it! Get off your feet! Come dance with me, and don't you fake it...Get close to me, and don't you fake it!"
 * In Beck's album Odelay, the word is used in the song Lord Only Knows.
 * Also used in his album Guero, from the song "Que Onda Guero".
 * Sea Change uses this, too- it's named after a line in "Little One".
 * She Wants Revenge's album This Is Forever is mentioned in the song Written In Blood. (I turn you over, and look in your eyes, promise you that this is forever, or 'til one of us dies).
 * This Is Forever also pops up in It's Just Begun. I thought the line was scattered liberally through the album, but it looks like that was just selective memory...
 * 16 Horsepower's Secret South takes its name from a line at the end of "Poor Mouth".
 * Blur's Modern Life is Rubbish is dropped in the last section of opener "For Tomorrow": "Turns it off and makes some tea/says modern life, well, it's rubbish"
 * Rush's Hold Your Fire appears at the beginning of the song "Mission." From the same album, "Prime Mover" provides the title for the follow-up live album A Show of Hands.
 * The name of the album Snakes and Arrows is used in the song "Armor and Sword". Also, the word "Counterpart" appears in the opening track Animate, on the album Counterparts.
 * Guns N' Roses' double album Use Your Illusion takes its title from a line in the song "Locomotive" on UYI 2.
 * Slight aversion: The title of ELO's album "Out of the Blue" is from the chorus of the final song on their previous album.
 * Soundgarden's Down On The Upside gets it's name from part of the chorus to "Dusty" ("I'm down on the upside now").
 * The title of Bat for Lashes' Fur and Gold is mentioned in "Trophy".
 * The title of Two Suns is mentioned in "Glass".
 * Sloan's One Chord To Another is named for a line in "G Turns To D".
 * Wired All Wrong's Break Out The Battle Tapes is named for a line in "Elevatin'".
 * Paul Simon's album Surprise takes its title from a line in the song "Everything About it is a Love Song".
 * His Greatest Hits Album Negotiations And Love Songs takes its name from a line in the song "Train In The Distance": "Negotiations and love songs are often mistaken for one and the same".
 * The album Fly to the Rainbow by Scorpions includes its title in the lyrics of "Fly People Fly": "All together, fly to the sky, fly to the rainbow, fly people fly". The actual title track "Fly to the Rainbow" is a case of Non-Appearing Title.
 * In similar fashion, the title of the Scorpions album Love At First Sting appear in the lyrics of "Rock You Like A Hurricane."
 * All Time Low's Nothing Personal comes from a line in the track "Break Your Little Heart" ("You were fake, I was great, nothing personal")
 * Bon Iver's For Emma Forever Ago is named for a line in the song "For Emma".
 * In "Dusseldorf," by Regina Spektor, there is the lyric," In Prague I knew I'd been a witch/burnt alive, a pyre of Soviet kitsch." The funny thing? That song is on the album "Begin to Hope"--the album that came after "Soviet Kitsch."
 * And Begin to Hope? That's the title of a way-obscure live song of Regina's. It doesn't appear on ANY album. In fact, there's only one fanmade recording of the song in existence. However, in Blue Lips, she plays this trope straight. The album, Far, takes its title from the lyric "Blue lips, blue veins, blue / The color of our planet from far, far away".
 * The title of "Mystery Girl," Roy Orbison's final album, comes from the lyrics of the song "She's a Mystery to Me."
 * The Roots' "You Got Me" includes the phrase "Things fall apart", and is from the album of that name. However, both are actually references to the novel Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe.
 * The title question of Harvey Danger's Where Have All The Merrymakers Gone? is sung in it's final track, "Radio Silence".
 * ACDC's first album, High Voltage (1975), doesn't include the title in the lyrics. Their next album, T.N.T. (1975), includes a song titled "High Voltage" which features the titular phrase in the chorus lyrics. Then the following year, Atlantic Records put out a compilation album also titled High Voltage, which contained songs from the first two albums, including "High Voltage". Finally, the song "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" mentions both "T.N.T." and "high voltage" in the lyrics.
 * There's an Executive Meddling issue here, as the Australian albums were renamed for American release, and none of them were released in their original form. The original T.N.T. was issued in the U.S. as High Voltage, and the Australian High Voltage was never released at all. This pattern continued with Powerage. Dirty Deeds only got a U.S. release after Back in Black hit. A couple of tracks from the original High Voltage wound up on U.S. releases, and some others were later part of Jailbreak '74.
 * Honorable mention for If You Want Blood (You Got It). The album itself was a live collection of previous songs, it wasn't untill their next album Highway to Hell that the track "If You Want Blood" was released, it's unknown if the track was written before the album was released or if it was originally intended to be included on it.
 * The name of Vertical Horizon's Running on Ice comes from the song "Falling Down", and Burning the Days comes from both "I Believe In You" and "Carrying On".
 * The name of Fleetwood Mac's Mystery to Me comes from the song "Emerald Eyes".
 * The name of Jimmy Buffett's Living and Dying in 3/4 Time comes from the song "Nautical Wheelers"... which wasn't released until his next album, A1A.
 * Similarly, the title of Matt Nathanson's EP When Everything Meant Everything is dropped in "Sing Me Sweet" from his following album Beneath These Fireworks.
 * "Old Fart at Play", on Captain Beefheart's album Trout Mask Replica, presents a slightly oblique example:

"Sin after sin I have endured
 * The title of Carbon Leaf's Shadows in the Banquet Hall is dropped in "Come Again" off that album, and then again several albums later in "Toy Soldiers". The title of Nothing Rhymes With Woman comes from "Another Man's Woman".
 * Lordi's The Arockalypse, titled after a line in "Hardrock Hallelujah!"
 * Blue Oyster Cult's most popular album, Agents of Fortune, is named after a lyric from the song, Extra Terrestrial Intelligence.
 * Damien Rice's O is named in "Amie", in reference to the French ''Story of O'.
 * The title of the Wannadies' album Be a Girl appears three times in its last track, "Kid".
 * The It Girl by Sleeper is from the track "Lie Detector" (She's got green eyes and she's lovely/Reminds me of the it girl with her lips)
 * The Used's Shallow Believer EP was named for a line in Slit Your Own Throat.
 * A line in "Hospital" named Lies For The Liars.
 * The Decemberists take it to very meta levels with "The Hazards of Love". It is: the title of the album, and the main title of four different songs, each of which drops the title in their lyrics at least once.
 * A more conventional instance occurs with "Castaways and Cutouts", whose title comes from the track "California One/Youth and Beauty Brigade".
 * AFI has done this once with decemberundeground, mentioning it once in the song The Interview
 * Ayreon also does it a bunch of times, sometimes not even on the same album. The Final Experiment's name is dropped by Merlin in the tracks "Prologue" and "Ayreon's Fate". The Human Equation is actually title-dropped (almost) on the next album, 01011001, in the song "The Sixth Extinction" ("We must resolve this human equation"). The Universal Migrator Part 1: The Dream Sequencer gets its subtitle dropped several times throughout the story, though the first time is heard right at the start of "Beyond The Last Horizon" on the album Actual Fantasy, when the familiar line "Dream Sequencer system offline" is spoken long before we learn what the Dream Sequencer is or even that it's important to the story. Actual Fantasy is the first line of that album, as well as the name of the first track. Universal Migrator is dropped twice to my recollection, both in "Chaos" ("I will now take you back to the Big Bang, and the birth of the very first soul, called... the Universal Migrator") and in "To The Solar System" ("Please abort Universal Migrator sequence"). Also referenced in "Ride The Comet" from 01011001 ("Journey on the Migrator trail"). All in all, this serves to tie the album's stories into each other and keep the continuity and plot of the whole Ayreon universe going. Ayreon is also the name of a character who features mainly in The Final Experiment, but is spoken about or referred to in many other albums, although usually not by name.
 * It might be worth noting that the "Dream Sequencer system offline" line is not repeated in the remake of the album. It might be in reference of an older idea for the Dream Sequencer. The revisited version was released 4 years after The Universal Migrator.
 * Mastodon does this on Crack the Skye, both as their song title Crack the Skye and on the song "The Czar": "Spiraling up through the crack in the sky/Leaving material world behind/I see your face in constellations/The martyr is ending his life for mine."
 * British art-rock band Gentle Giant used the phrase "Hail to power and to glory's way!" on two tracks from their album The Power And The Glory. They also made a song with the same title as the album, but it was not included on the original album - Only on the B-side of a single from that album.
 * German Metal band Axel Rudi Pell does this on the song "The Gates of the Seven Seals" on the album Oceans of Time. The words in bold are titles of the band's past albums: "The thunder/the smash/the cracks between the walls/The black moon pyramid once filled with magic /now it's gone."
 * Also, in the song "Only the Strong Will Survive" on Kings and Queens: "kings and queens, the evil dreams, their hearts full of steel and despair"
 * In the song "Valley of Sin" from Mystica, the lyric "whispering tales from the shadow zone" is present.
 * Happens with both Kings and Queens and Oceans of Time in the title track of Mystica.
 * Many Firesign Theatre albums have the title crop up in the dialog, but since many of them are Word Salad Titles, it probably doesn't signify any more importance than usual.
 * The Corrs are a bit idiosyncratic about their album names. Forgiven Not Forgotten is named for its first track, but Talk on Corners references a line in "Queen of Hollywood" while In Blue is mentioned at least twice, in both "Give Me a Reason" and "No More Cry". Despite there being a track actually named "Borrowed Heaven", the phrase also appears in the very first song of the album, "Summer Sunshine".
 * We Were Promised Jetpacks drops their album title These Four Walls in the song "Keeping Warm".
 * Sepultura's Chaos A.D. is named for a repeated line in "Refuse/Resist".

 * The Jens Lekman compilation Oh You're So Silent Jens is named for a lyric in "Black Cab".

 * The Cardigans' album Long Gone Before Daylight is named from a couplet in the quiet acoustic song "03.45: No Sleep", where it refers to "the comfort of fireflies".

 * Escape the Fate did this with their album Dying Is Your Latest Fashion, the title of which is mentioned in the third track, Situations.
 * Vienna Teng's album Dreaming Through the Noise comes from the track "Recessional": "and she dreams through the noise, her weight against me, face pressed into the corduroy grooves".
 * Her self-published live album, The Moment Always Vanishing, takes it's title from a line in "Antebellum".
 * Taking Back Sunday does this a ton. Their first studio album "Tell All Your Friends" comes from their song "Cute without the 'E' (Cut from the Team)." "Where You Want to Be" is their next album, which takes its title from "Set Phasers to Stun." Their next CD was called "Louder Now", taken from "What's it Feel Like to be a Ghost?" "New Again" is the only exception.
 * To make things more confusing, their first two albums were entirely made up of non-sequitur song titles.
 * Borderline example: Iron Maiden's "Still Life", from Piece of Mind, has the line "Nightmares... will give me peace of mind".
 * Blue October's ''History For Sale" takes its name from lyrics in the last song, Amazing.
 * Kill Hannah has Until There's Nothing Left Of Us, which are lyrics from Believer.
 * KH really likes this one, to the point that the song "All That He Wants" is commonly known by the line that titles the album, American Jet Set.
 * Really, the only time they haven't done this in was in Hope For The Hopeless...or in For Never And Ever, where the namesake only appears in a hidden track two LP's prior.
 * The very last two lines of the title track from Opeth's Blackwater Park - and the only two that anyone actually knows from that song - are: "The sun sets foreveeeeerrrr/over Blackwater Paaaaaarkk".
 * Keith Urban's Defying Gravity is named for a line in "If I Could Ever Love."
 * Rancid's ...And Out Come The Wolves is named for part of Jim Carroll's spoken word contribution to "Junkie Man".
 * Iggy Pop's The Idiot is an arguable case: Word of God is that it's titled as a Shout Out to the Dostoevsky novel of the same name, but "Sister Midnight" does include the line "I'm an idiot for you".
 * Hole's Live Through This is named for a line in "Asking For It" ("If you live through this with me, I swear that I would die for you")
 * The title of Interventions & Lullabies by The Format is almost but not quite dropped in "I'm Ready, I Am" ("an intervention, a lullaby").

 * Borderline example in The Open Door, from the chorus of All that I'm Living For ("lock the last open door/my ghosts are gaining on me").

 * Subverted with Shiny Toy Guns' We Are Pilots album, whose title track has a Non-Appearing Title.
 * Steely Dan's Katy Lied barely avoids a title drop in the track Doctor Wu - the actual lines are "Katy tried" and "Katy lies".
 * The Fratellis' debut album Costello Music features the line "these are crazy times down at Costello Music" in the refrain of the first track "Henrietta".
 * Sparks' Kimono My House has the line "kimono my house pour amour" in "Hasta Manana Monsieur".
 * Momus: Ocky Milk doesn't make a lot of sense as an album title until you hear "Dr Cat", which contains the lyric "Ocky milkman's wife had an enormous roofgasm". Which obviously clears everything up.
 * Kaiser Chiefs' third album Off With Their Heads has this in "Like It Too Much": "Off with their heads, and always led opinion polls".
 * Jethro Tull do this with "Dun Ringill" on Stormwatch: "Lines join in faint discord and the stormwatch brews".
 * The chorus "Blue Piccadilly", the last track of the Feeling's ''Twelve Stops And Home", ends with the line... well, guess.
 * The classic album "Rising" by "Rainbow" (Sometimes called "Rainbow Rising" because of how the band and album names are displayed on the album cover) has two in the epic track "Stargazer": emphasis on the title word in the lyric "The world stands still / as he falls instead of RISING", and later on, we have the lyric "I see a rainbow rising! Look, look, there, on the horizon!"
 * Keane's album Under the Iron Sea is namechecked in "Crystal Ball".
 * Also their song "Snowed Under" mentions "someone to understand your hopes and fears," Hopes and Fears being the name of their first album. Though this Troper is sad to say that this song isn't in the album ...
 * Linkin Park's "The Catalyst" drops the title in this little ditty: "God save us everyone / Will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns".
 * Weird Al Yankovic's second album is "In 3D", a phrase prominently used in the chorus of "Nature Trail To Hell".
 * Aside from having a title track to begin with, INXS' Kick has a couple of title drops: "Devil Inside" features the line "look at them go, look at them kick", while "Tiny Daggers" has "All you want to do is kick it in".

 * "Please, Please" from their third album "Motion in the Ocean" uses "Let's get the motion in the ocean so turn off your phone now"
 * "Above The Noise" appeared in the first lines of the second verse in "Shine a Light"; "Tell me can you hear my voice, loud and clear above the noise?"
 * Steeleye Span:

 * Pavement's "Speak See Remember", from Terror Twilight, has Stephen Malkmus whispering "The terror twilight, it's all to get down on it" a few times during an otherwise instrumental section of the song.

 * The band also named two of their "Greatest hits" Albums after lyrics from songs included ("גבירותי ורבותי" (Ladies and Gentlmen) is named after the first line in ריקוד המכונה (The Machine Dance) and "עסקי הרוקנרול" is named after a line from למה לי פוליטיקה עכשיו? (Why Politics For Me Now?)

 * Ten Thousand Maniacs do this on Our Time in Eden, with said album's title cropping up in the track "Eden".

 * The title of Joanna Newsom's album The Milk Eyed Mender is taken from a seemingly random lyric on the song Sadie, a line which gains huge emphasis because of it.
 * On Kate Bush's 2005 album Aerial, the only title drop is on the second last song "Nocturn", but in a hugely unexpected way - on an album filled with images of sky, flight and birdsong, the lyric describes 'light climbing up the aerial', meaning the aerial on the roof of a house. It's an excellent twist, and effective not only with the significance of the word, but in its delivery, as the melody soars and reaches new height on the last syllable.
 * There is a title track to Thursday's Common Existence; however it's only a B-Side and not in the original edition. The title can also be heard in the closing track "You Were the Cancer".

And the darker crimes of common existence."
