You Can't Hurry Phil Collins

In one of our local boozers, there's a jukebox of the older electronic kind. It has a display screen that doesn't really have room for both an artist and a song title and tends to abbreviate the title and smoosh it together with the artist (or just smoosh if the title is short already), creating such classic tracks as

You Can't Hurry Phil Collins

I'd Do Anything for Meat Loaf

or

Nothing Compares 2 Sinead O'Connor

Any more we can suggest?
