The Carpenters songs are great, we all agree. The only problem is, sometimes the song titles are a little vague and inspecific. I have given consideration to this issue, and am suggesting some alternate and more detailed titles, so that the listening public will have a better idea what to expect to hear. Can you determine what the actual song titles are based on the suggested "improved" (this is just a game- and a joke, of course) titles?
