It just occurred to me today that "Love Will Tear Us Apart" is a Captain & Tennille joke.

But the idea for this thread actually came from listening to Tsar's Band Girls Money and spotting these two song titles:

Everybody's Fault But Mine
You Can't Always Want What You Get

More?

It's even better when the circle is completed a la The Swinging Erudites.

Generation X - "Your Generation"
Genya Ravan - "The Knight Ain't Long Enough" (actually, I think I just WISH that was a song title parody)

Yet there's inexplicably never been a song called "Muskrat Hate."
