INT. NEW YORK JETS TRAINING FACILITY – DAY
A pair of men are standing outside an office, inspecting the name plate that is mounted on the wall.
JANITOR: So…you want it changed again.
ADAM GASE: That’s right.
JANITOR: But…
GASE: Listen, the hierarchy here is…fluid.
JANITOR: Okay.
GASE: And it’s important that my title here accurately reflects my true role with the team.
JANITOR: Sure.
GASE: If players – and more importantly, assistant coaches – get the wrong idea about how things are structured, they could get…confused. About who is truly in charge here.
JANITOR: Isn’t that…Mr. Johnson?
GASE: Sure, in London, maybe. But here in New York…
JANITOR: New Jersey.
GASE: …the New York State Metropolitan Area…I am calling the shots. And I need the title on this doorway to reflect that.
JANITOR: You don’t think “head coach” gets it done?
GASE: I do not.
JANITOR: Well now that Joe Douglas has signed on, the “general manager” plate has got to go.
GASE: Give me one that says “Executive General Manager”.
JANITOR: No.
GASE: Director of Football Operations.
JANITOR: Sorry, Doctor Montgomery has already claimed that.
GASE: [losing his temper] LISTEN! I AM IN CHARGE HERE! ME! ADAM GASE! YOU FIND A TITLE FOR ME THAT SAYS AS MUCH AND YOU DO IT NOW!
JANITOR: [backs away slowly]

Today’s theme is “title tracks”. You are allowed five picks of songs whose titles were also used as the name of the album that they were from. I’ll get us started with one from Radiohead.
Closing out with a DEEP cut

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AwdjreJKggg
Banger of a tune, banger of an album:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZXS8Jpkiac
I’m over the limit but this is an oversight that I can’t ignore-“This Is The Sea” by The Waterboys.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAiOjxkCS0g
5. There are a lot of good ones still on the board, but I;m gonna close out with this one.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4m2q5Fw8gwI
5. What’d I Say
And like Boltman after his lightning has been rode, I’m spent.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6uTDa3771HM
4. Icky Thump
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OjTspCqvk8
4. I made a shirt with this album cover on it in my high school silk screening class.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W1IiPkQa2iY
Great late round value:
3. Straight Outta Compton
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMZi25Pq3T8
2. Let It Bleed
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DK9jyXD5yWA
“Best to get in before that.”
– J. Epstein
I like this theme!
1. Ride the Lightning
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kk6wLZN4X74
THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT BOLTMAN TELLS ALL THE HUMAN FEMALES.
3. Joe Satriani – Surfing With The Alien.
Going for a theme here.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uoERl34Ld00
5. For my last pick, I’ll take the group I fervently hope plays live again someday
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Js4yGcgO6hk
Come for the bird sounds, stay for the Englishman with the blank look on his face. It’s My Life by Talk Talk.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFH5JgyZK1I
4. Krieger knows what’s up
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17t4bSaMvl4
DFO Commentist Theme? Maybe.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l482T0yNkeo
Hell yes.
I can see myself choking on my own vomit…
3. Yeah, it’s Dad Rock, but I like it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e2Hfs8J6pHo
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TlYJKfunfC0
Had to.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xnKhsTXoKCI
3. This is one of those Request Line’s where I’m really not worried of anyone stealing any of my picks. But you should strap on a jetpack.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_ZrtGi4Ouo
Gonna have to go off the beaten track. This is Dread Zeppelin off their album ‘Rock and Roll’.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vl0Dm_A-jxo
Iggy Pop is probably wondering why his phone keeps beeping.
Just saying.
I’ll go one further. A track that is the name of the song, the name of the album, and the name of the band.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ww5GXbk58R0
Nice
But enough about Tesla’s ability to turn a profit…
Ironically the only version that I could find was a remaster off of a best of album, but trust me, they did a whole album and everything
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqSKl7sdUa8
2. I mean come on
“Done!” – PK
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3t9SfrfDZM
Peter King’s version is titled Born to Waddle.
Well if nobody else is going to suggest it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQvUBf5l7Vw
Waiting for you to post a Pussy Riot or Tatu song.
lmfao
2. Smashing Pumpkins – Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness (aka “being a Browns fan”)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JFEftsKAUvY
Imma mellow the room just a tad:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oX9esXzzO7w
1. The Who – Quadrophenia
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okPlOaNQSpE
I was actually surprised in the end that this wasn’t the title track of the post.
“I was actually surprised in the end…”
Are we not doing phrasing any more?
RIP you magnificent weirdo, Part Deux.

“Wait…he was a musician???”
J. Sandusky
In spite of his endings and shortcomings, the man was a musical genius. Please acknowledge..
2.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWwhdINdMs8
“I want to be like scotchy.”
-Pretty much everybody
RIP you magnificent weirdo.

DUDE
I mean, you don’t really even have to scroll much.
I always do bad when i arrive late.
That means i got two more.
Huh, Zeppelin’s Houses of the Holy isn’t even on the album that shares its title. Guess I’ll go with one of my other favorites then:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPL_SV3n7IU
1. Since I copied scotchy’s last pick, this is my first selection…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmU4Xyl00hY
Dammit, that’s where I was going next.
Those first 3 albums are all so great.
I wore out the vinyl and the cd’s aren’t in great shape anymore either.
You knew this was coming….
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9NFs7qPwuk
And of course we’ll double it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qp-XXRAZaAw
I didn’t, but I am pleasantly surprised.
Yeah, was kinda expecting Florida-Georgia Line or something equally horrid.
Dude. I would punch those guys given the chance.
They are horrible.
This is a good musical opinion.
When I was at the dentist yesterday, two people drilled my mouth while Florida George Line and Imagine Dragons played. I feel very violated.
Holy fuck, that’s some next-level Nazi torture shit.
Also, probably the third time this week two people have drilled your mouth.
Beer doesn’t pay for itself.
1. Here’s Low Commander to pick another song from whatever the latest Clutch album out is.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mIkkdtoKTA0
Hope Spam doesn’t pick this one. Here’s Fear of a Black Planet.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWkty6Ux36g
Sounds like the GOP Manifesto.
1) Forty years later, still fucking relevant
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EfK-WX2pa8c
We should go out-we’ve got a lot in common.
Ok, but I don’t like Indian food or butt stuff.
I’ll be gentle-with the spices and the insertions.
I LIVE BY THE RIVER!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4vHvzybkqfo
LET’S GO! Lust for life from the album…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQvUBf5l7Vw
“Okay, Mr. Gase, I can make your title Executive Facial Recognition Software Tester. How’s that sound?”
