Comment:

After seeing jeff hayward's amazing efforts in this realm, I had to run and make my own long song title compilation (do I ever sleep?) All titles are 7 words or more. A bit of a stretch making it "flow" but, er, it all worked out in the end I think. As a bonus, all the artists are from New Zealand or Australia!

Poppy - It seems almost inconcievable that both you and Jeff could make long title mixes and not include "Standing Outside A Broken Phone Booth With Money In My Hand." Extra props to you, though for making all the artists from NZ & Australia!

Maybe outside of your purview,
but I wish you'd included
When People Were Shorter And Lived Nearer The Water.

Great stuff. Another one you coulda included was the Manikins (Perth band from the late 70s) song: "I Never Thought I'd Find Someone Who Could be So Kind". But, then again, they're probably so obscure that no one would've heard of it or the band.
