Songs By Artists With Repetitious Names


I'm not gonna lie to you – this is another post that originated from me wanting to add a certain song to a music post and not being able to think of a better way to include it other than this cockamamie concept. As it turns out, there are way more artists with repetitious names than I thought (e.g., Duran Duran, Goo Goo Dolls, and Yo-Yo Ma, to name a few). So maybe it was a dumb idea at first, but it turned out pretty well in the end. Enjoy?  ~  JH



1)  Phillip Phillips  ~  "Gone, Gone, Gone"  (This is repetition to the extreme – both the artist AND the song title have repeated words. But what a great song!)






2)  Duran Duran  ~  "Hungry Like The Wolf"




3)  The Ting Tings  ~  "That's Not My Name"




4)  Yeah Yeah Yeahs  ~  "Maps"




5)  The The  ~  "I Saw The Light"




6)  The Go-Go's  ~  "Our Lips Are Sealed"




7)  Tom Tom Club  ~  "Genius Of Love"




8)  Wet Wet Wet  ~  "Sweet Surrender"




9)  The Mighty Mighty Bosstones  ~  "The Impression That I Get"




10)  Goo Goo Dolls  ~  "Iris"




11)  Mr. Mister  ~  "Is It Love"




12)  Frou Frou  ~  "Must Be Dreaming"




13)  Bow Wow Wow  ~  "I Want Candy"




14)  Everything Everything  ~  "Cough Cough"  (Direct to you from the Department of Redundancy Department)




15)  JoJo  ~  "Too Little Too Late"




BONUS TRACK:  Yo-Yo Ma  ~  "Prelude from Bach's Cello Suite No. 1"  (For the more cultured among us – I'm not necessarily including myself in that company)
