gonna be pedantic and point out that most of these titles are not the entire first line.

If it's the first x words of the first line, it's good.
If it's the last x lines, or there are words before the title, it's not.

Reviving this thread because Madonna's "Take a Bow" came on the radio this morning and that works here.
"My Name Is Jonas" is a 3rd variant of these two threads, the song title is sung exactly twice as the first line and last line.
