Not only was Bohemian Rhapsody a number one which didn't have the title in the lyrics, it did mention the title of the song which replaced it at number one...

Bolt's not just a pretty face.

Even if not in that context though you say someone bohemian rhapsody the first thing that comes into you head is the mamma mia bit

In fact unless an idea/thought pops into my head right away about any given subject i usually give up and get back to thinking about sexy girls from t.v adverts and new combos for pizza hit pizza's

One of the best pub quizzes I took part in was clips from songs, name the artist and title etc. The bonus question was 'what do they all have in common' and it was that the titles were not mentioned in the lyrics.  Here are a few off the top of my head, cba checking if they got to number one though:

Clint Eastwood - Gorillaz
Buck Rodgers - Feeder
LSF - Kasabian
Song for Whoever - Beautiful South
