Favourite new song titles?

I was just wondering what everyone thinks of the new song titles and wether or not they have a favourite so far?. Let's rank them from 1 - 10 (1 being awful and 10 being amazing).

This Sullen Welsh Heart 10
Show Me The Wonder 8
Rewind The Film 1
Builder of Routines 6
4 Lonely Roads 5 (would have preferred it if they used "four" rather than 4.
(I Miss The) Tokyo Skyline 3
Anthem For A Lost Cause 1
As Holy As The Soil (That Buries Your Skin) 4
3 Ways To See Despair 5
Running Out Of Fantasy 7
Manorbier 8
30 Year War 8

I gave RTW and AFALC a 1 because TRF sounds like something the phonics would have called an album/song and AFALC sounds like something QOTSA would come up with. I hate both bands mentioned here. Very silly reasoning as RTF is amazing.

I am misreading AFALC as AFLAC and am thinking of the US duck commercial.

Visit Youtube. Type in AFLAC duck in the search bar and you'll get a bunch of commercials featuring the white feathered spokesduck for a type of US health insurance coverage.

Show Me The Wonder is one of my faves of course! Will do a proper list with points later. I do like Rewind The Film too!

Of course it has to be your favorite! Unless there was a bonus track with the title: Show Me The Gutless Wonder!

(The View From) Stow Hill was the title that I was most looking forward to but it's not on the album.

Otherwise, Running Out Of Fantasy is a cracking title and Anthem For A Lost Cause is a bit too close to one of my own songs....
