With over a quarter of a million English words, not to mention probably an infinite combination of these words, you would think that song writers could avoid naming their songs the same as another song. Well, it appears that is not the case. "Let It Go" has been used as a song title 45 times (and counting). The most famous use (at least for those with young children) was in the 2013 Disney movie Frozen, but there are many more. Which "Let It Go" songs are you familiar with (and don't worry, I will not be listing all 45 of them)?

Song titles, no matter how unique they are, can not be copyrighted, which is obvious by the number of songs sharing the same name. And while there is only one "Purple People Eater" and "Hotel California", many other names are used over and over. Can you name any song titles that are used for multiple songs?
