Same Name/Different Song
« on: December 03, 2007, 02:02:00 am »
Ok, since this kind of post is my favorite kind, I thought I would throw one out.
 
 Going through my itunes, I noticed that there are bands that have the same song title, but are completely different songs. I am trying to compile a list, but thought some of you could help. Cover tunes DONT count. I'll start with two examples:
 
 Monsters -
 Boy Least Likely To - The Best Party Ever
 Band of Horses - Everything All The Time
 
 Someday -
 Ween - Shinola Vol. 1
 The Strokes - Is This It?
 
 Post Away!
