3am Mixtapes: Episode Sixteen: Crush Mixtape

Each week on the 3am Mixtapes podcast, I will share with you the Top Six Songs of a certain subject. The topics can be as general like best supergroups. Or some might be a little more... esoteric. Top Six Bands Named After Places That They're Not From.

And this week, we reminisce about putting together a selection of songs for someone you might just fancy.The Top Six Song To Put on a Mixtape for Someone You have a Crush On. Using music to woo someone is as old as music itself, and maybe you remember putting on some songs and just hoping that the person listening gets the deeper meaning?

3am Mixtapes: Episode Eight: Songelgängers

Hey look, it's another episode of 3am Revelations' very own podcast!

Each week on 3am Mixtapes, I will present to you, in my dulcet tones, the Top Six Songs of a certain subject. The topics can be as broad and vague like Best Duosor they can be as obscure and specific as Best Septets.

This week, we take a look at the strange phenomenon where two musicians, completely independent of each other, come up with songs that happen to have the exact same name. And I don't mean song titles like "Home" or "Run" or "Tonight", but ones that are a little less common. So here it is, your Top Six Doppelgänger Songs, or Songelgängers!

Featured on this week's podcast is:

"Pledge of Allegiance" by Matthew Good
"Pledge of Allegiance" by Louis XIV
"Phantom Limb" by The Shins
"Phantom Limb" by Wide Mouth Mason
"Loveless" by Said the Whale
"Loveless" by Matt Mays
