Changing song names in one playlist, without changing in another.

I need two separate playlists for music. I change the names of the songs by adding a number in front of them to help with the order of the music to the particular set piece I am doing for my show. But when I change the name of the song in one playlist, it changes the name in the other playlist as well. I only want the name changed in one playlist. Is it possible to customize song names for each playlist?

You don't need to change the name to arrange the order of songs in a playlist - there's a playlist number to the left of each song; when you move a song to a different position (click & drag), the number changes to reflect its new place in the playlist. In other words, the same song which is second in one playlist will have the number 2, but if it's 11th in a different list, it will have the number 11.
