New record in 2006? (wikipedia)
Oh indeed, she does have a habit of picking the worst titles for her albums, I think I've hated most of them. I tend to make up my own instead. On my planet, Little Earthquakes is called 'Girl', Under The Pink is 'Icicle', Boys For Pele is 'Blood Roses', From The Choirgirl Hotel is 'Black Dove', To Venus and Back is 'Datura'.
I do like the titles Strange Little Girls and Scarlet's Walk, though. I don't care enough about The Beekeeper to make up an alternative title.

What goes for OM SATORI's (look it up!
) album titles goes for her lyrics too.A bit like doing the Times crossword while dipping into The Most Of Virginia Woolf,filtered through True Romance.
(Not really,just a windup)
I don't think a huge amount to Stina's album titles either,although they're OK.Have you got a code language for them,BOOTSY? (that's what I'm going to call you from now on,hehe
)
Seriously (well,not..) I don't think anyone has topped Captain Beefheart for great album titles.Crazy and very memorable,a bit like the content .
'Ice Cream for Crow','Doc at the Radar Station' ,'Shiny Beast (Bat Chain Puller)' to cite his last three albums,and of course the one and only 'Trout Mask Replica' which even now John Peel is playing in Heaven .

Let's see - I love 'Memories of a Colour' as a title, but if I changed it I'd go for the obvious 'Alone at Night'. ASCHE would be .... 'Fireworks', I think. Seems appropriately Stina-ish in its contrariness. Dynamite would be 'Until', I don't like that song much but it's a brilliant title. PAS is fine as it is. This Is would either be 'Circus' or 'Stations'. I love The World Is Saved as a title, wouldn't change it.
What would an official Stina compilation album be called, I wonder. And isn't it about time there was one?
Ice, you were the one most tender with the rivers.
You, the roof of the waves, layer after layer after layer ...
