Oh! I Always Get Those Two Mixed Up!

Ethan Hawke
Ewan McGregor

It doesn't happen often, but the recent Moon Knight trailer had me thinking "Oh. So he gets to be a villain in a DC and a Marvel property" for a brief second.

Dundee F.C.
Dundee United F.C.

This is kind of the opposite? Someone who is the same person who I always think of as two people:

Cat Power
Chan Marshall

Clark Kent
Superman

Absurd! They look NOTHING like each other! Clark even wears spectacles for christsake

The Azores
The Ozarks

Steve Harley
Alex Harvey

Of their combined work, I've only heard "Make Me Smile".

Seek out the Sensational Alex Harvey Band performing "Next" on YouTube, should be easy to find.

Anna von Hausswolff
Chelsea Wolfe

Luca Guglielmi
Lorenzo Ghielmi

(Both harpsichordists)

Sam Cutler
Sam Hutt

The Wedding Present
Weddings Parties Anything

an attempt at watching Pam & Tommy made me realize I'd never distinguished between Tommy Lee and Nikki Sixx, at least as far a gossip fodder and rockstar escapades. They were just a singular tall, tattooed, black haired dude married to Pamela Anderson and/or other models.

Jim Seals
Phil Collins

Jon Hassell
Bill Frisell

And Bill Laswell

Kate St John
Bridget St John

only just realised they're two different people

Add in Susan St James

Eva Marie Saint
Buffy Sainte-Marie

It pains me to say this, but:

John Hurt
William Hurt

Donald Glover
Danny Glover

Averroës
Avicenna

I believe this is a not entirely uncommon quizzing predicament.

I am much more familiar with the former but from now in I will start mixing them I guess.

From now on in

Averroës
Avicenna

i can't explain exactly why, but this is the kind of post that keeps me coming back to this thread. good stuff!

Top of the Pop
TopPop

do you mean Top of the Pop*s*?
or am I just adding to the mixing up now?

Ugh, sorry, was typing too fast, yes, you are correct.

Top of the Pops = TOTP = BBC original
TopPop / Toppop = what the Dutch did with the concept

Blew out my flipflop
Stepped on a TopPop

Lol

Barefoot in the Park
The Panic in Needle Park

"alouette"
"frère jacques"

^good one!

And the one before it too

"alouette"
"frère jacques"

Oh hell right:

Traditional, famously variantizationized by Mozart: "Ah! Vous dirai-je, maman"
Haydn: Symphony #94 ("Paukenschlag"/"Surprise"), movement 2

Less excusable:

Alt-J
Jlin

Mackenzie Davis
MacKenzie Scott
Mackenzie Crook

It seems my brain files names thinking Mackenzie is enough of an identifier and then I get confused when I see a headline about MacKenzie Scott giving $436m to charity and momentarily wonder how much money he made from The Detectorists.

Add Ranald Slidell "Bad Hand" Mackenzie

It pains me to say this, but:

John Hurt
William Hurt
