wasn't having a go, i just wouldn't wish for you or anyone else here to refer to initals as an acronym in conversation, it might upset someone. on that note, all we are discussing here are initials, not abbreviations.....

BTW, the "Caps Lock" key on your PC seems to be stuck, possibly FUBAR. see if you can't get it fixed or just a new keyboard

Just be thankful the song titles aren't as complicated as Pink Floyds?
I'll still be using abbreviations for album titles for the foreeable future. Will use them for songs depending on mood, but YLAINE is a beautiful thing to see written.
