Good choices! The Who and The Grates songs didn't have linking verbs titles that start with either "I'm the" or "I am the". I Am The Sea isn't really a song, it's an overture. Here's the rest:

Dead Kennedys: I Am The Owl - 7MB

The Stone Roses: I Am The Resurrection - 13MB

The Aliens: I Am The Unknown - 10MB

Okay so here are some of my suggestions
X Ray Spex I am a Poseur
Followed by Helen Reddy, I am Women - I think that Poly Styrene or Ari Up from the Slits should have covered this song!
Some Canadian Bands, The Great Lake Swimmers -I am part of a large family and Rock Plaza Central- I am an excellent steel horse! (love the title!!).
Then of course there is, I am a Rock by Simon and Garfunkle.
That's it for now....

Thanks, but the theme is linking verbs titles that start with either "I'm the" or "I am the".

Styx did a piece of self-affirmation called "I'm OK"
My 16 year-old self used to really love Twisted Sister's "I Am, I'm Me"

maybe coffee will jar more titles, but offhand I can think of two related titles by two wholly different artists:

Sun Ra-I am the Brother of the Wind
Chris Bell-I Am the Cosmos

Last night, my late lamented English teacher, Mrs. Porter, came to me in a dream and begged me to enforce the copula rule. I really need songs that have *the* following the linking verb, can I possibly get you to try again?

Linking verbs have to be followed by "the", like these tunes:

John Lennon: I'm The Greatest - Demo - 4MB

The Beatles: I Am The Walrus - take 16/basic track - 4MB

Peaches: I'm The Kinda - 5MB

Hi:

I see you posted a track from Joe Jackson...thinking you might like Los Angeles-based Layabout. You can hear "Arms Around the City" (and download the track) here: www.layaboutband.com/music.html

Thanks,
