Spell Out Your Username with Song Titles

Tourist
I've seen this one elsewhere, and thought it might be nice to bring it here. You basically list songs that start with each letter in your username. Two things to note are that "A/An" and "The" don't count (e.g. The Logical Song would be treated as Logical Song, The), and if you have numbers in your name, you're free to skip them or get somewhat creative at your discretion.

To start us off:

D: Desperado - Eagles
I: I Just Called To Say I Love You - Stevie Wonder
N: No More Tears - Ozzy Osbourne
O: One Headlight - The Wallflowers
R: Raspberry Beret - Prince
A: All the RoadRunning - Emmylou Harris
W: Way, The - Fastball
R: Rocky Mountain High - John Denver
 
Interesting idea :)

Tag wird kommen, Der - Marcus Wiebusch
The song is based on the fact that there is no active soccer player out as gay in Germany yet. Although the song argues that the sexuality of people doesn't matter, it is highly supportive of coming out due to the difficulties that pretending to be hetero causes. The title means "the day will come".

Auf einem Baum ein Kuckuck - Rio Reiser
This one is actually a 19th century folk and children's song, but I love how Rio Reiser sings it. The title means "on a tree a cuckoo ...". The text tells that a hunter shot a poor cuckoo, but the cuckoo was back in the next year. It is sometimes interpreted as rebellious message, that the call of freedom cannot be oppressed for long.

Irgendwie Irgendwo Irgendwann - Nena
It's a love song without much depth, but it has catchy tune that awakes childhood memories in me. The singer's voice is lovely. Nena also recorded an English version called "anyplace, anywhere, anytime". The English and German lyrics don't match though.

Let there be rock - Tocotronic
No need to translate the title this time. The German verses make me feel melancholic. They contrast negative judgements such as "the most boring landscape in the world" or "the oppression of mankind" with life actually being okay in practice, "we liked it there", "people cultivate their gardens". To me it's a mixture of being down to earth, nothing really matters and make life enjoyable anyway.

Oben - Rainald Grebe
The title translates to "at the top". It's a cynical song about inequality in society and how one's standing is not necessarily related to one's merits.
