Ricky 4000 Posted January 23, 2019 Posted January 23, 2019 (edited) From another thread, there were 3 different "Power of Loves" in the UK charts during 1985 alone! Here may follow a list of different songs with the same title (not covers of the same song). Over to you, pop pickers! 👍 Edited January 23, 2019 by Ricky 4000 Quote
obbm Posted January 23, 2019 Posted January 23, 2019 (edited) And before any of those there was Money by The Beatles which was in itself a cover. Edited January 23, 2019 by obbm Quote
Cosmo Valdemar Posted January 23, 2019 Posted January 23, 2019 I always thought it a bit cheeky of Limp Bizkit to release a song called 'My Generation'. I mean, that's iconic isn't it? It's like a boy band releasing an inane song and calling it Bridge Over Troubled Water or something. 2 1 Quote
Silvia Bluejay Posted January 23, 2019 Posted January 23, 2019 How many songs are there with the title 'Only You'? Quote

Ah yes, the much covered Jennifer Rush song 😊 : Quote Other songs of the same title in 1985[edit] This was the last of three singles in the British top 100 with the title "The Power of Love" in 1985. The other two were "The Power of Love" by Frankie Goes to Hollywood, which peaked at No.1 in December the previous year, and "The Power of Love" by Huey Lewis and the News, which peaked at No.9 three weeks before this song hit No.1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Power_of_Love_(Jennifer_Rush_song) Edited January 24, 2019 by Ricky 4000 Quote
Skinnyman Posted January 24, 2019 Posted January 24, 2019 (edited) So “Shut Up” is ahead at this early stage with “Only You” a close (or distant) second (or not, as the case may be). Six seems hard to beat.... Edited January 24, 2019 by Skinnyman Quote

Six seems hard to beat.... I've just written 9 songs called "Cars". They're not very good, but Gary Numan only wrote one, so I think that makes me a winner. 👍 And that's 10 all together. 😁 5 Quote
