(Title Confusion)

When so many people get the name of a song wrong that it necessitates parentheses containing the song's mistaken name along with its ACTUAL name so people don't get frustrated when they can't find it. It can also occur if the title of the song is too verbose. (Again, this too can be caused by people getting the title wrong.)

(Title Confusion) has occurred many times in music. To name a few:

-Escape (The Pina Colada Song) by Rupert Holmes
-Rocket Man (I Think It's Gonna Be A Long, Long Time) by Elton John

-Bang A Gong (Get It On) by T. Rex*
-Movin' Out (Anthony's Song) by Billy Joel
-Operator (That's Not The Way It Feels) by Jim Croce

* "Bang a Gong" was originally called "Get It On," but it was later changed.
