Even though I don't have the same obsession with music that most of my peers appear to have, I was having a shufty through my wax disc collection last night and it really cheered me up. You see, I came across that Dead Kennedys classic "Too Drunk To Fuck". What a title! It raised a smile and then got me thinking of other greats, the top of the pile surely being the country and western anthem "You're The Reason Our Kids Are So Ugly".
C&W has always been a rich vein for such gems but I would be interested to hear of any brilliant numbers which deserve to be listed among the world's top ten titles.
In the meantime, how about these other little slices of genius which all helped to put the "cunt" in "country music"? (I have labelled my particular favourites with a *):
