Songs That Sound A Little Too Similar

[Roobs321]

Thunder by Imagine Dragons & Young, Dumb and Broke by Khalid have very similar sounding titular hooks.

 

[Zuma]

The Rubettes - Sugar Baby Love vs JPY - Yesterday's Hero.

V and Y have always liked the RnB sound

The choruses of these two pretty much have the identical tune:

I was quite disturbed to find out today that Fade To Black by Metallica was not inspired by Pink Floyd’s “Goodbye Blue Sky”. Scarily similar.

I'm not suggesting plagiarism here but I find this Black Keys song reminiscent of one of my favourite Stones songs:

definitely some inspiration there

 

[Herne Hill Hammer]

After every man and his dog had had a go at him about it. He tried to claim it was an original piece first.

Correct. I remember watching the interview when he tried to claim it was an original by him, what a crock. Claimed it was a completely different bassline.

Radiohead suing Lana Del Rey, want 100% of earnings.

 

[Father Jack]

Would that mean that the Hollies get 40% of that 100%?

These two songs are currently running consecutive on rage, insta chuckle.

Unbeknownst to me, some substance to this one. Turns out they actually did a medley performance of this live at the 2017 AMAs about a week before I posted this, and then released a Medley studio single in late December.

Reminds me of when I won a naming competition for a cancer ride by choosing "Tour de Cure", and then a while later it turned out the name had already been registered (a few years before it blew up as a Sunrise thing).

Funny when "original ideas" turn out to not be the case. Imagine spending a year writing a novel and then when you go to publish it, someone had published virtually the same thing a few weeks beforehand.

 

[El Doederino]

The opening to Poison by Alice Cooper



Is basically identical to the opening riff to Crazy Train by Ozzy



Is also near enough identical to Sweet Dreams by Marilyn Manson which I guess makes the Eurythmics plagiarists as well.

[Demonic Ascent]

Powderfinger "We Should be Together Now" rip off of Nine Inch Nails "Were In This Together"

Electric Light Orchestra - Don't Let Me Down

I call this the parents and the child.



The opening lyrics of the above.

I don't know which was first but it's a deadset knock-off.
