Font Songs

Typographers by nature are nerds. So perhaps it's only fitting that one of today's best type foundries is also one of today's best nerds. Hoefler & Frere-Jones inspired quite a few tweeters to bust out song title puns using names of typefaces.

Below is a list of some of the best from this summer's #fontsongs Twitter tag. (We warned you of the nerdom.)

• We will, we will Rockwell
• Rock the Caslon
• I Meta Girl
• ITC Clearly Now
• Tempted by the Frutiger ’nother
• Rockwell Amadeus
• Gill Sans in a Coma
• Get Down Onyx
• I Wanna Bold Your Sans
• Janson Queen
• Take a Janson Me
• Hotel Caledonia
• My Tahoma
• I’m So X-Heighted

When we told Duckpin's own Mom M. about this post, she spouted off a few of her own:

• Lucinda, You're Breaking My Heart
• I Had the Times of My Life
  

Think you can you outdo her? That's what the comments section is for.
