I never actually knew the names of the songs, which is the way it is for most stuff if I can't understand what they're saying. I can tell you every Minor Threat song title, because Ian screamed them all at me like he was doing reps, 4 sets of 3 in each song.

SMALL MAN BIG MOUTH
SMALL MAN BIG MOUTH
SMALL MAN BIG MOUTH
SMALL MAN BIG MOUTH

repeat 2 more times, and one extra at the end!

Conversely, all I heard from the Cocteau twins was something like

waaahhh-ahhah-gobble-wobble-ahha-yodel-ohhh

That was kinda the point. When I figured out she wasn't actually saying anything it was much easier to just sit back and enjoy.

120 Minutes introduced me to Big Dipper, and the video for "Faith Healer" is still one of my favorites.
