Title: Song Name OCD... Post by: Samdy Gray on Tuesday, November 17, 2009, 19:43:37 Just reading that NME top 50 thread has prompted my OCD.
Should words like 'and', 'the' and 'of' be capitalised in song titles? My OCD (and the many hours spent correcting my iTunes library) says yes. Title: Re: Song Name OCD... Post by: Bogus Dave on Tuesday, November 17, 2009, 19:46:27 I would agree
Title: Re: Song Name OCD... Post by: sonicyouth on Tuesday, November 17, 2009, 19:47:19 however it's printed on the record
Title: Re: Song Name OCD... Post by: Nick Bamosomi on Tuesday, November 17, 2009, 19:48:14 I too have OCD regarding my itunes library, Sam, and yes -EVERY word in the song name needs to begin with a capital letter, no matter how small!!

Title: Re: Song Name OCD... Post by: Langers on Tuesday, November 17, 2009, 19:51:23 Wow! Me too - Not just in song titles either though any sort of title
Title: Re: Song Name OCD... Post by: LucienSanchez on Tuesday, November 17, 2009, 19:52:26 'and' and 'the' are the only words that don't need caps in my opinion
Title: Re: Song Name OCD... Post by: flammableBen on Tuesday, November 17, 2009, 19:54:40 however it's printed on the record this. But otherwise generally no. Only at the start of the song title. Same goes with Book and Film titles. For example: "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe." Title: Re: Song Name OCD... Post by: Samdy Gray on Tuesday, November 17, 2009, 19:55:46 Yes - yes they must. *Loads up iTunes* you cunt. Don't worry Dave, you're not alone. I've just spent about 2 hours scrutinising my library and changing anything that's not right. Title: Re: Song Name OCD... Post by: tans on Tuesday, November 17, 2009, 19:57:15 I also am like this.
I also have to have the album cover for every album or single on there. Title: Re: Song Name OCD... Post by: Samdy Gray on Tuesday, November 17, 2009, 19:57:50 Oh don't get me started on album covers!
Title: Re: Song Name OCD... Post by: DV on Tuesday, November 17, 2009, 19:59:51 The album covers pissed me off so much I just got rid of the lot.
I've had a quick look through and out of over 4,000 songs each word of each song title is captial. Title: Re: Song Name OCD... Post by: flammableBen on Tuesday, November 17, 2009, 20:01:43 Isn't this like going through a book and putting extra apostrophes in wrong places?
Title: Re: Song Name OCD... Post by: Sussex on Tuesday, November 17, 2009, 20:39:12 What about '&' or "and"?
Title: Re: Song Name OCD... Post by: PHIL!!!! on Tuesday, November 17, 2009, 21:16:43 Hahah! I do this too! Although recently i've found that 'Of' looks a bit silly with a capital.....But seein as the others have a capital, this one must do as well 8)
Title: Re: Song Name OCD... Post by: PHIL!!!! on Tuesday, November 17, 2009, 21:20:54 Oh and Samdy, good to see you've been listenin to the latest Paramore album! (Judging by your forum sig, anywho...). It's sucha good album, isn't it!
Title: Re: Song Name OCD... Post by: Samdy Gray on Tuesday, November 17, 2009, 21:27:08 Yep, 'tis a good listen.
