Hi, I am making a playlist of completely different songs with the exact same title: NOT covers or remakes, no change to title such as a “The” at the front of one or an “s” at the end. Different genres & decades not only ok but great. A slight change in punctuation or spelling ok, for example I’ve got Feelin’ Alright (Joe Cocker) & Feelin’ Alright? (Traffic) and Sugar Cane (Space Monkeys) & Sugar Kane (Sonic Youth).

Most of the ones I’ve thought of are of 2 different songs; some are of 3 or even 4. But I know there’s a bunch more that haven’t come to mind. Please add any that you can think of, from the ‘50s to 2026, & I will reply to each posting! Thanks so much!

We officially hit FIVE YEARS of playlist competitions, marking our 5th full year of hosting music-sharing events on Reddit!!

WINNERS!

Annual Spotlight: u/dvqp - "F*ck 50"

Nothing like getting political to get the comments going! u/dvqp gave the community a particularly unique theme this year, asking for help building and organizing an anti-fascist playlist that could carry enough energy to work at a march. Across 54 songs and more than three hours, "F*ck 50" stretches from punk and hip-hop into R&B and beyond, showing just how many different sounds can fit around a shared message. Tracy Chapman’s “Talkin’ Bout a Revolution” brings a timeless protest anthem into the mix, while H.E.R. adds another powerful voice to a playlist built around resistance, frustration, and social commentary. Whatever your politics, it was certainly one of the year's most distinctive requests and one that got the community talking.

Special Mention: u/Objective-Method6759 - "My Playlist #14"

Sometimes the best playlist requests start with simply wanting to hear something new. u/Objective-Method6759 came to the community as a self-described "basic sad girl" looking to branch out from the sound she already knew, and the community responded with plenty of new directions to explore. At around three hours, the resulting playlist moves through soft indie, folk, alternative, and more atmospheric sounds. Maya Hawke’s “Mermaid Bar” fits naturally into that reflective mood, while artists like Liana Flores help push the collection beyond where the original request began.

Annual Spotlight: u/depressed_ho3 - "Synth pop"

Coming in with a last-minute entry, u/depressed_ho3 gave us one of the year's final standout playlists with a collection dedicated to synth-pop. The playlist moves from higher-paced electronic music into songs driven by vocal melodies and dreamy production, making it equally at home on the dance floor or during a late-night gaming session. Justice and Tame Impala’s “One Night/All Night” brings a sleek, energetic electronic sound to the mix, capturing the blend of modern production and synth-heavy atmosphere that runs throughout the playlist. A fitting reminder that sometimes one of the best discoveries of the year can show up right before the clock runs out.

Special Mention: u/Mental-Secret7256 - "My 10,000 Music Collection"

For a five-year celebration of music sharing, it felt impossible not to highlight one of the most comprehensive collections posted to the community this year. u/Mental-Secret7256 spent years assembling more than 10,000 songs and organized the collection into playlists covering every decade from the 1950s through the 2020s. With hundreds or even thousands of tracks representing each era, this is less a single playlist and more a personal archive of modern music history. Whether you're searching for something familiar from decades ago or digging through an era you barely know, there is an enormous amount here to explore.

A Special Playlist Request: u/Unclestanky - "Years in the Lyrics"

Some requests are just too perfect for an anniversary post to pass up. u/Unclestanky asked the community for songs that reference specific years in their lyrics, giving us an idea we couldn't resist turning into a playlist ourselves. Using the thread as a starting point, "Years in the Lyrics" travels through musical time one year at a time, with Green Day’s “1981” sitting among tracks from artists like The Stooges. Five years into our own playlist project, a collection built entirely around years felt like a fitting way to mark the occasion.
