Same Title, Different Song

Post by paul jh » Thu Apr 02, 2009 9:34 pm

Picking up on what Jon suggested, let's compile a list of songs with the same title, but are completely different songs. There should be many. :) If possible, please provide the composer and lyricist. So this game may require some research.

I'll start with the one we've been discussing recently.

Isn't It A Pity

George & Ira Gershwin
George Harrison
