For that meme going doing the rounds, where the thing is to list the fics you've named after song lyrics or titles, I've seen it described both ways.
I think mine can be split up into 4 main groups:
Dirty Little Secret (http://redfiona99.livejournal.com/689569.html) - Taken from 'Dirty Little Secret' by All-American Rejects - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gPDcwjJ8pLg&ob=av2e Originally I wanted a line from 'Private Eye' by Alkaline Trio (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q4Wh6LklD4M&feature=fvst) but I couldn't find a suitable one in the song.
Go To Sea Once More (http://archiveofourown.org/works/66896) is from the Dubliners song of the same name (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xd8BdB6c-0U) or at least I know it as a Dubliners song.
Eternity (http://archiveofourown.org/works/67028) has a title taken from Robbie Williams's song of the same name (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E16qbwzlxBM), but then again it would since the challenge was to base the fic off it.
Bang, Bang, Bang On The Door (http://redfiona99.livejournal.com/706402.html) - Taken from, of course, 'Love Shack' by the B-52s (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tw7guzT6ANI)
Ashes Of Disaster (http://redfiona99.livejournal.com/655718.html) which will be finished one day - take from 'The Roses of Success' from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GND10sWq0n0)
San Francisco Bay (http://redfiona99.livejournal.com/625336.html) is taken from 'Don't Marry Her' by The Beautiful South (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHnhMvSxOf0 soooo not safe for work)
The Moth Don't Care If The Flame Is Real (http://redfiona99.livejournal.com/595940.html) is taken from a line in 'The Moth' by Aimee Mann (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8qtA2sRoQKQ)
Chance Won't Come Again (http://archiveofourown.org/works/67176) is from 'The Times They Are A-Changing' by Bob Dylan (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_oJPnSaPlQ)
Never Been Tested Don't Think I Would Pass (http://archiveofourown.org/works/67143) is taken from a line in The Mighty Mighty Bosstones's 'The Impression That I Get' (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NIGMUAMevH0&ob=av2n)
Still Not The Same (http://redfiona99.livejournal.com/702463.html) - Sort of taken from 'Another Night (Another Dream)' by Real McCoy - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pav2f4b-1ZE&ob=av2e I'd love to defend my musical taste and claim the only reason I did it was because this is the song mentioned in the prompt, except I love this track.
This Fire Is Out Of Our Control (http://redfiona99.livejournal.com/640483.html) is adapted from 'This Fire' by Franz Ferdinand (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJr5l7j8VeU)
Communications Breakdown (http://redfiona99.livejournal.com/642345.html) - From the Led Zeppelin track of the same name (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWUBHA2DBDA) Apparently I have been mishearing the lyrics for years.
A Real Green Time (http://redfiona99.livejournal.com/451614.html) is me mishearing the chorus of Pink's 'Feel Good Time' (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tNJqTVnZsCU&feature=related)
