It often surprises me how some people won't go the extra mile to fact-check a CD's track list, to find the appropriate title to a song. Instead they'll find a few words from the chorus and slap it on as the song title. LOL. This is also rampant in media sharing sites such as Project Playlist, IMEEM, and Last FM.
The funniest one I've heard so far is "Hey Ho, Let's Go"
in place of The Ramone's "Blitzkrieg Bop"
Have you heard any other funny ones?

"Several Species of Small Furry Animals, Gathered Together in a Cave, Grooving with a Pict" by Pink Floyd. I believe it was on the 'UmmaGumma' album. It's not even really a song.... but it was good for a few giggles back in the '70's. I think it may also qualify for longest song title as well.

The most common ones have to be:
Tennage Wasteland by the Who (Baba O'Riley)
We Don't Need No Education or The Wall by Pink Floyd (Another Brick in the Wall Part 2)
Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd (Brain Damage)
Feelin' Groovy by Simon and Garfunkel (the 59th Street Bridge Song)
Everybody Must Get Stoned by Bob Dylan (Rainy Day Women #12 and 35)

Wow, there's a few.
The Who - Baba O'Riley - Still, people call it Teenage Wasteland, hilarious.
The Verve - Bittersweet Symphony - There are still plenty that think this song is called I Can't Change.
Jesus & Mary Chain - Reverence - I doubt that most even know that's the actual name of the song, as opposed to the repeated chorus of I Want To Die.
AFI - Girl's Not Grey - Often mistaken for the chorus of What Follows.

It annoys me when people say Smashing Pumpkins 'Bullet With Butterfly Wings' is called 'The world is a vampire'. Just because they're the first words in the song

Eh...When I was 10 years old my brother had me call the radio station and request a Steely Dan song.
I requested "Feeling in the Ears" by Steely Dan
True Story...

The one I hear most often is Local H's "Bound for the Floor" being called "So Pathetic" or "Copacetic".

I saw someone refer to New Order's "How Do I Feel" on here once. I can only guess that they meant "Blue Monday".
