Artists Who Write Their Own Headlines

When Mark E. Smith wrote "Fit and Working Again" I wonder if he realized it would figure into the title of so many Fall articles. What are some other examples of songs or phrases that always make their way into band profiles?

"The Filth & the Fury" seems to keep coming up, although it was a headline before it was a ... uh .. cliche'

"The past was yours but the future's mine" - I'm sure that MUST have been used in a hundred Roses articles circa 89-90.

"Heaven Knows [They/The Smiths/Morrissey/Marr] [Are/Aren't/Is/Isn't] Miserable Now"

there must've been ryder/bez features to use "pills and thrills and bellyaches".

when moby released "i like to score" - very early on in my copy-editing career - i wrote the headline "know the score" for an interview with him. the features editor saw it, ripped it up, jumped on it and called me a lazy c***. he was dead right. seriously: that moment changed the very way i approached headlines.
