Top 10 Music Albums With Unusually Long Titles

The Top Ten
1 The Boy Bands Have Won - Chumbawamba

The title holds a Guinness World Record for the Longest Album Title:
"The Boy Bands Have Won, and All the Copyists and the Tribute Bands and the T.V. Talent Show Producers Have Won, If We Allow Our Culture to Be Shaped by Mimicry, Whether From Lack of Ideas or From Exaggerated Respect. You Should Never Try to Freeze Culture. What You Can Do Is Recycle That Culture. Take Your Older Brother's Hand-Me-Down Jacket and Re-Style It, Re-Fashion It to the Point Where It Becomes Your Own. But Don't Just Regurgitate Creative History, or Hold Art and Music and Literature as Fixed, Untouchable and Kept Under Glass. The People Who Try to 'Guard' Any Particular Form of Music Are, Like the Copyists and Manufactured Bands, Doing It the Worst Disservice, Because the Only Thing That You Can Do to Music That Will Damage It Is Not Change It, Not Make It Your Own. Because Then It Dies, Then It's Over, Then It's Done, and the Boy Bands Have Won."

Yes Martin, this must have been the reason. In an item title you can add up to 255 characters or something like that. This title is much longer. I think I myself added this album before but I guess it wasn't accepted for the same reason. Now I added only part of the title.

I am 100% sure I added this album months ago. Maybe the title was too long and admin didn't want such a long-titled item.

2 There is a Hell, Believe Me I've Seen It. There is a Heaven, Let's Keep It a Secret - Bring Me the Horizon
3 Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume One: From Fear Through the Eyes of Madness - Coheed and Cambria
4 Welcome Back My Friends to the Show that Never Ends ~ Ladies and Gentlemen - Emerson, Lake & Palmer
5 Astro-Creep: 2000 – Songs of Love, Destruction and Other Synthetic Delusions of the Electric Head - White Zombie
6 The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars - David Bowie
7 Psalm 69: The Way to Succeed and the Way to Suck Eggs - Ministry

9 Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume Two: No World for Tomorrow - Coheed and Cambria
10 Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols - The Sex Pistols

Instead of giving my vote to Ziggy Stardust (one of the greatest glam rock albums ever) or Sgt. Pepper's (one of the greatest psychedelic albums ever), I'll vote for one of the greatest punk albums ever and throw everybody off.This and the United States of America's s/t are probably the greatest one and done albums ever.
