New Game: Twin Songs of Different Mothers

The Game Room
1

In Twin Songs of Different Mothers, we’re looking for a song name that has been used by two or more artists. NOT different versions of the same song but entirely different songs that happen to have the same name. With nothing but the names of the artists, you come up with the song title they share.

This seems to work best when only a correct TSODM answer qualifies a player to ask additional questions. If it helps, lead the answer to Q#1 with “A#1” and then ask Q#4.
Q#1 Supertramp and The Beatles
Q#2 Bon Jovi and Pink and Linkin Park
Q#3 Queen and Pink Floyd and Three Dog Night

2

QT1 - Barenaked Ladies, Seal, Gnarls Barkey, Aerosmith (and many others, the most famous of which is skipped)…

I’m going to think a while on yours…3 sounds familiar

3

And since I’m thinking of Queen…

QT2 - Queen and Jefferson Airplane

4

Somebody to Love

5

Bingo.

Continuing the Queen theme…

QT3 - Queen and Remy Zero (I had to look their name up…I knew the song, but not them…)

And, related to the above…

QT4 - The Kinks, Five For Fighting, Lazlo Bane

And, one that amuses me greatly, because the two songs were played at around the same time here…

QT5 - Carolyn Dawn Johnson, Avril Levign

6

QT6 - Black Sabbath and the Smithereens

QT7 - Styx, Kenny Rogers and the Little River Band

QT8 - Bad Company and Roberta Flack

7

QT9 - Beach Boys, Kinks and Steely Dan

Is the MOST famous version by Patsy Cline?

QL: Beatles and Dave Clark Five.

13

“Run, Run, Run”

QB#1: Plastic Ono Band & Leon Russell

14

“The Show Must Go On”

(This one had me stumped for a while because I was sure there was no Pink Floyd song called “Liar.”)

QB#2: Queen and the Mothers of Invention

Yes. You and 42fish are correct, it is Crazy.

16

Superman

17

Right you are.

Still active from me:

Also, anyone else amused by how many times Queen is showing up in here?

Cool idea–I was thinking of something like this earlier, but not in game form. Yay!
