I preffer titles that are not just the used song´s title >_>

Well it´s the same with movies: "28 weeks later" and not "People run, hide and Zombies finaly eat". If you take it strict... the original title tells you not enough about the movie.

I don't think a title needs to tell you about the video. The title a representative of it, a name, the description is what tells you about the video.

Not saying that the title should have nothing to do with the video, but I certainly don't think it needs to tell you whats in it. Expecting that would just be silly...

Titles are just another fun bit of creativity, nothing more.

Haha, and from other sides I get to hear how crappy my titles are. Thank you.

My titles are really quite uninspired. I first start thinking about them when I have to enter the title somewhere and the songtitle doesn't work.

Yeah, I vote for "Haruki" as best title ever!

hmmmn when I think of "Princess Bride" I think of the movie with Carey Elwes (or however you spell his name) O.o when I went to watch the video I really had no idea of what to expect.

as for my titles...

most of my titles start out as "my gay butterfly video" or "tuna" or "sentimental last exile crap" or just the title of the song or show...

I have used the title of the song before, but usually only if I'm uninterested in the video itself (I'm With You).

the rest of my titles are either a variation on a lyric, (Just Another Heartbreak, Under Stars, Twist of Fate, I'll be There, etc..)

or they are something I randomly pulled out of nowhere (Something Fishy, Pocket Change, The Pink Haired Boy, Dark Dance, "Morning Ritual", The Tradegy of a King?) that seems to sum up the video with the fewest words possible...

I'm personally not a fan of long titles, unless there is something overly memorable about them...
