Episode #1046
It’s time once again to play Namedropper, where each and every song is either about another song or songwriter, or mentions one or more of them! See if you can keep score at home and pick out all of the mentions; there’s a lot of them!
This show is a continuation of a theme I started in 2018. If you missed that first episode, revisit it HERE
Even after 5 hours of these so far, I’ve got a whole pile more, so I’ll surely revisit this topic again in the future, so if you’ve got other suggestions, let me know!
This is one of our standby series of pre-recorded episodes that are meant to be timeless, so we can pop them into the schedule again some time when I can’t be at the studio live, so enjoy this one now and again!
