As many of us, I've been trying to keep busy and one of my "projects' has been cleaning out my iPhone music list. I had over 2,300 songs on my iTunes list, and knew I didn't listen to at least half of these songs any more. I was surprised to see how many songs I had with the same song title. And I'm not talking about remakes or covers, although I do have some of those. For example, I had six songs named "Brave" on my music list. Which of these "Brave" songs -- some I have and some I don't -- do you like the most (if at all)?

The most common song titles is a list that is probably ever evolving, since songs just keep on being written, and there are only so many words to use. Some titles definitely have been used more than their fair share. According to Billboard.com "Hold On" is the most common song title to hit the Top 100 Billboard. Which of these "Hold On" songs is your favourite (if at all)?

Sometimes you have a huge hit -- a song that everyone immediately thinks of when they hear the title, and a different song (again not a remake or cover) that share the same very identifiable title. Have you ever heard the lesser known song/songs in these musical twin titles?
Hallelujah -- famously by Leonard Cohen (and covered quite well by many including k.d. Lang and Jeff Buckley) and the lesser known, song Hallelujah by Alicia Keyes

Yesterday -- the Beatles of course, but it was also a song by Leona Lewis, Imagine Dragons, Marianas Trench and Toni Braxton

Respect -- everyone will think of Aretha Franklin, although it was written and first done by Otis Redding, but it was also the name of a song by The Notorious B.I.G and Train

Your Song -- Elton John may instantly come to mind, but it is also a song by Rita Ora and Thornley

The Twist -- Chubby Checker made it and the dance famous, but it's also a song by Metric, Frightened Rabbit, and A.A. Bondy and none of them inspired a dance craze

When going through my music, I discovered that I had three songs called "Broken" by three different artists (Seether & Amy Lee, Jess Glynne and Lovelytheband), and I actually do not know which of these songs I like most. Have you any songs with the same title that you like equally as well?
