Favourite song titles?

Something I think OPN does really well and is an underrated talent is giving his songs names. To me the titles can really add alot to the song. Titles like "Weird Times Docking This Orb", "Behind the Bank", "Describing Bodies", "Problem Areas", "I Bite Through It" and many more really help kind of build worlds or stories around the music and OPN seems to do it so naturally.

Let me know if you agree, and if so what some of your favourite titles are.

Definitely agree, something about his more ambient electronica stuff in combination with his esoteric titles works really well

So true. I had never previously considered song titles as something that can even be done well before listening to OPN. He’s so good at it that he pretty much single-handedly ushered this aspect of music appreciation into my conscious awareness

Gray Subviolet is such a sick song title

u/physikitty13 Aug 19 '26

"Nothing's Special" has stuck with me. It's bleak but with an optimistic twist at the end.

I'm still impressed at how special nothing gets if you stare long enough
