Stupid Band Names:
- Pronounced "For example", this was an R&B band that had a minor hit in the mid-90's called "I'd Rather Be Alone." I'm all for clever spellings... but the problem lies in how to appropriately sort the band name; should it be under the letter 'I' (since that's how they spell it, and would likely be filed that way on this site) or 'Four' (given that it's a Roman numeral)? Personally, I'd go with filing it under 'I', even though it's not pronounced "ivy". This goes to show that starting a band name with a Roman numeral does create a sorting problem.
