Oh, this is classic.

I'm becoming a fast fan of Cracked.com and here is a prime example of why. They've put together a list of the Twenty Worst Album Titles of All Time and it covers a lot of ground. The list and commentary here is hilarious, but to web your appetite, I'm going to list the first five.

• C-Murder - The Truest Shit I Ever Said
• Fall Out Boy - Fall Out Boy' Evening Out with Your Girlfriend
• The Kinks - The Kinks are the Village Green Preservation Society
• Madonna - Music
• Fiona Apple - When the Pawn Hits the Conflicts He Thinks Like a King What He Knows Throws the Blows When He Goes to the Fight and He'll Win the Whole Thing 'Fore He Enters the Ring There's No Body to Batter When Your Mind Is Your Might So When You Go Solo, You Hold Your Own Hand and Remember That Depth Is the Greatest of Heights and If You Know Where You Stand, Then You'll Know Where to Land and If You Fall It Won't Matter, Cuz You Know That You're Right

Looking over the full list of 20, I was feeling pretty cocky that I didn't own any of these... but then I spotted one that I did have (somewhere). I'm not going to admit which one so I leave it up to the reader to guess. Check out the article at CRACKED.com - The 20 Worst Album Titles of All Time.

The following video is a great close-up of a performer at the piano playing a John William's masterpiece. But more importantly, the camera is focused on the player's hands. Though it is not clear if the musician learned this piece from published sheet music or is playing by ear, a determined fan could learn and approximately duplicate the performance on their own instrument.

My cousin playing the epic theme of the battle between Anakin and Obi-Wan ... this music is one of the many that we will provide to you by YouTube.
