An answer song is a song that refers directly to another song, or is meant as a reply to another song: these are not songs which simply refer to other artists or to songs in general, or include samples or riffs from other songs. The lyrics refer directly to another particular song. This phenomenon was popular in blues and R&B genres, particularly from the 1930s through 1950s. Songs are listed in alphabetical order.
