      I was about to say the same and add that its an interesting observation that such clever titles dont draw more views. I actually clicked on the link to study the thread and make a distinction as to why such a clever title has so few views and the only one I can make is that it doesnt clearly speak to a demographic.

      Like "Underwear for men" for example... A man looks at that and says "Hey that might be for me"...

      On another note:

      This title could be a cooler hook if only the content delivered the "knock out punch" when you opened it up.

      Hooks have to be "set up" in order to deliver punch.

      Once a girl at church came to me and said "I have a song hook that I want to give you. Its the best hook ever"

      I said "sure".

      She said "we are the dance".

      Okay????????????????????

      Well it didnt knock me over...it was a punchline, but punchlines are no good without a set up.

      So I "made it" into a hook by setting it up and positioning it to be a punchline that actually delivers punch

      Here is the result:

      "You exult
      my soul above the clouds
      and you waltz me through the steps
      as we spin in pirouettes.
      You lead me softly
      through the middle of the crowd,
      and I know Im not alone
      Lord you are the song
      and we are the dance.

      Now it has some "dancing" reference points that set it up, and it doesnt stand alone, the hook has a little punch (especially with music and melody) , but "we are the dance" by itself says nothing.

      Its not a hook unless it punches, and it doesnt punch without a set up.

      Okay, I got that out. Thanks.

      As far as "views" the title in itself doesnt appeal to a specific enough demographic is all I can say.

      I know the op was just bored though, not trying too much.

      Ps. After viewing the pic now, its even MORE clever. Yes. Kudos.

      Its a play on words Kim. He's making word play with the title of the op with the song "I got 99 problems but a Bi*** (rhymes with Glitch) aint one" by Kanye West.

        AH,gotcha.
        No wonder I don't get it. I don't like Kanya as a musician or a person.
        After what he did to ruin Taylor Swifts moment shows the type of character he has.

          I'm with you there, Kim!

          And what a stupid song title. He doesn't have er, a beach, because he's the biggest one of them all.

          Can you tell I don't like the dude, lol!
