Willie G. Moseley Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 About a decade ago I wrote a newspaper column titled "The 'Heartbreaker' Chronicles", about songs with that single word title. At the time, the earliest I'd been made aware of was by the Andrews Sisters. Then there were songs in my generation by Led Zep, Free, Grand Funk RR, Pat Benatar Dionne Warwick and others, and more recent fare by will.i.am, Pink, etc. Was recently wondering about other songs with mutual titles and any diversity between them (the more diverse, the better) and have started a list for another potential commentary. For starters, there's "Eat the Rich" by Aerosmith and Motorhead, and "Lost in the Ozone" by Commander Cody & the Lost Planer Airmen vs. Motorhead. If there's a particularly twosome (or more) of similarly-monikered songs you recall, please advise. You might also want to note which you prefer and why. Thanks in advance.

Will Ray https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=4MKWLKLls1Y Elvis Preston Shannon And for more contrast, Cat Stevens Never mind Double Trouble and Trouble in Mind and the like.

ZR Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 I thought for sure they were going to miss Loudness - Let It Go, but it was there. Pretty thorough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Haynie Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 I looked for Loudness in the list, too. I bought a ticket to see Loudness in Atlanta last year. The show is on hold. These postponed tours have been a real mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stobro Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 In my record collection there's "Candy" by The Astors, Iggy Pop and Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers. According to YouTube there's also a song with the same title by Mandy Moore. They're all vastly different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
