Translations/Explanations For Song Titles
Note: All Japanese ones are unstated as Japanese, but all other foreign languages will have theirs stated. Don't take it offensively. It's a matter of minority.
Note2: Some Touhou/dobuusagi songs have been shortened from their original titles. I have the full titles listed here.
* stands for a title that didn't undergo a title fixation due to the magnitude of the title change. As in, the change would've confused too many people.
Zephon -> Xephon = Rah Xephon, an Evangelion-like anime.
Youkoso! Himitsu no Janbaraya = ようこそ!ヒミツの雀バラや!? = Welcome! The Secret Gambling Arena!? (Note: Janbaraya describes a place where people play Mahjonng [not the crappy English misconception, but the intensely difficult gambling game])

Note: I realized again that Garyoutensei was the usual irregular pronouciation after all, and that I didn't feel anything wrong with it when I first mentioned Garyoutensei to Tasselfoot. Just to not annoy Tass with my stupidity any further, I'll leave it as is, because Garyuutensei isn't wrong either... just a bit uncommon.
