Naming a track 'Anthem For a Lost Cause' is really setting themselves up for a fall Unless it's an anti-anthem song.
This Sullen Welsh Heart is a great title. |

I'd be interested to hear Manorbior, purely as I had to go there with work once!
Also, 'This sullen Welsh heart' is a good title. Can imagine it sounding like Door To The River...

This Sullen Welsh Heart 9 (Will almost certainly be a 1985-esque yawnfest but cool title) Show Me The Wonder 6 (Are they now ripping themselves off? Not that I mind if it's anything like Found That Soul) Rewind The Film 1 (Rewind The Film and, while you're at it, erase the tapes of this travesty) Builder of Routines 5 (Will this be another of Nicky's 'I like housework' tracks? Probably) 4 Lonely Roads 6(Obligatory Manics Power Ballad pt 1) (I Miss The) Tokyo Skyline 5 (No idea what to make of this one) Anthem For A Lost Cause 9 (Obligatory Manics Power Ballad pt 2) As Holy As The Soil (That Buries Your Skin) 8 (Statement time pt1) 3 Ways To See Despair 10 (It has 'despair' in the title. A 10 is mandatory) Running Out Of Fantasy 6 (An unkind person would call it Running Out Of Ideas. That would be wrong.) Manorbier 3 (Oh fucking hell, not another song about When They Were Lads) 30 Year War 7 (The 30 YearS War is cool. It goes on, everyone changes sides, and there's the treaty of Westphalia at the end)

I think my favourite titles so far are Show Me The Wonder and Rewind The Film, but for me so much of what I think about a title relies on the song itself that I have no idea about most of the others yet.
