The ChatGPT song title appreciation thread

[miniman]

Many of us contribute to the song / album titles appreciation threads. I thought I’d ask ChatGPT to have a go. The question was:

Create a list of 100 songs. Each song title must contain one word from the previous song title in the list. Each song title can be used once only. The list should show both the song title and the name of the artist.

I tried a few permutations of the question and it doesn’t seem to understand that the song title has to have a word from the previous *title* and has included some where the previous *artist* appears. There are also a few that are questionable. But a good effort!
