* On Music/KateBush's 2005 album ''Aerial'', the only title drop is on the second last song "Nocturn", but in a hugely unexpected way - on an album filled with images of sky, flight and birdsong, the lyric describes 'light climbing up the aerial', meaning the aerial on the roof of a house. It's an excellent twist, and effective not only with the significance of the word, but in its delivery, as the melody soars and reaches new height on the last syllable.

* In Music/TheBeachBoys' "Good Vibrations," the line "Softly smiles, I know she must be kind" appears. The album that "Good Vibrations" was intended for was called ''Music/{{Smile}}''. However, Brian Wilson apparently did not want "Good Vibrations" to appear on the album, so this could be a coincidence.
