Top Ten Famous Songs Where People Assume the Refrain is Actually the Title
We all know that one famous song where the refrain is stated many times, but do we actually know the real titles of the song?The Top Ten
1 Get Up (I Feel Like Being A) Sex Machine - James Brown ("Sex machine", "Get up", "Get on up")
2 I Got You (I Feel Good) - James Brown ("I feel good")
3 Sympathy for the Devil - The Rolling Stones ("Pleased to meet you")
4 American Pie - Don McLean ("The day the music died")
5 Morning Train (Nine to Five) - Sheena Easton ("My baby takes the morning train")
6 White Rabbit - Jefferson Airplane ("Go ask Alice", "Feed your head")
7 My Name Is - Eminem ("Slim Shady")
8 Bring Me to Life - Evanescence ("Save me", "Wake me up inside")

The Contenders
11 Proud Mary - Creedence Clearwater Revival ("Rolling on the river")
12 Creep - Stone Temple Pilots ("Half the man I used to be")
13 Schrei nach Liebe - Die Ärzte ("Arschloch")
While "Schrei nach Liebe" ("Scream for Love") is mentioned in a line in the chorus ("Deine Gewalt ist nur ein stummer Schrei nach Liebe", "Your violence is just a silent scream for love"), much more prominent is the shouted "Arschloch! " ("A-hole! ") at the end of each refrain, which the chorus dramatically builds up to. There was even an anti-right wing movement in 2015 called "Aktion Arschloch" which bought the song out of solidarity against racist attacks (the song is about how a neo nazi's hate and violence is only a facade to hide that he himself is in fact lacking love and affection in his life).
14 (I’m Gonna Be) 500 Miles - The Proclaimers (“cause I Would Walk 500 Miles”)
15 Hit 'em Up Style (Oops!) - Blu Cantrell ("Hey Ladies")
16 Voyage to Atlantis - The Isley Brothers ("I'll Always Come Back to You")
17 The Way I Am - Eminem ("I Am Whatever You Say I Am")
18 Fu-Gee-La - Fugees ("Ooh la la La")
