Funny thing about that video is that I would have used the song title if I could have...but there were 3 songs So "Self-Titled" was just a joke title that literally has no meaning...it probably just confuses people.

Give credit where credit is due, booch!

I still prefer Ghibli Road... although it is worryingly close to Gypsy Road and that just inspires too many Cinderella images ^_^;;

How about "The Long And Winding Road?"

for my last video ii came up with a title that would try and catch the audience eyes and make them download it, so for me, i think a title is important because it is the first thing that a person sees.

It's tricky to come up with clever amv titles?

Though back on topic, wouldn't a self-titled video be one named after the creator? So if I made a video entitled BogoSort, it would be self-titled?

See, I wanted that. BUUUT at the time, I also had Cagliostro in the video to help up the energy during The End...so it couldn't be Ghibli Road. By the time I decided to take it out, I had already decided on Self-Titled, which PAIZURI suggested

But it's not a self-titled video

It's a video titled "Self-Titled". See? It makes no sense! That's why I decided to keep it

But it's not a self-titled video :) It's a video titled "Self-Titled". See? It makes no sense! That's why I decided to keep it :P

Yay for jokes that make no sense! Someone needs to make a video entitled fnord...

Anything with the word eternal in the title should be downloaded directly to the recycle bin just to waste the bandwidth of the editor.

I told you about that story in college with my ex-girlfriend loving that video right?
