Coolest Song Names or Lyric Snippets

#1 Post by NateDiggity » Thu Dec 02, 2004 4:07 pm

We are brainstorming names for a new lindy hop troupe. It's always neat if the name has a reference to a song or a snippet of lyrics from a swing tune....so what are the coolest *named* songs of all time?

Thanks!
