Songs That Sound A Little Too Similar

[RedmanWasHere]

Just the intro ....

With Lust For Life in the middle of both.

 

[Fossie 32]

This.



vs this.

 

[Fossie 32]

Somethings Gotten Hold Of My Heart by Gene Pitney [just the chords at the start and at 2:00] and Kiss You All Over at 1:59 and 3:06 where they sing 'till the night closes in'

 

[CliffMcTainshaw]

Henry Thomas. This song was written in 1928. See what you think. Different lyrics.

[Purple7x08_24]

Sometimes these are genuine samples used

Coldplay used a sample from Kraftwerk,



Here are two songs I feel sound very similar

These two have a SIMILAR vibe to them, but not the same

 

[CliffMcTainshaw]

The Kinks "Picture Book.


Green Day "Warning"

 

[RedmanWasHere]

This trio.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Another pairing.

This time, a drum and bass pairing.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Here is a Ray Charles song.

What does the intro remind you of?

 

[james Dean]

Here is a Ray Charles song.

What does the intro remind you of?

It very faintly sounds like I Feel Fine.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Here is a Ray Charles song.

What does the intro remind you of?

???

 

[RedmanWasHere]

???

Exactly this.

Plus George Thorogood - Treat Her Right.

 

[Interceptor]

Exactly this.

Plus George Thorogood - Treat Her Right.

George covered it (like he did for many songs), original was by Roy Head

 

[footyfan1978]

I remember back in early 80's when heard a song on Jimmy Barnes first solo album sounded a lot like a song of different name from Cold Chisel.
Maybe it just my ears, but I thought Paradise sounded very similar to Rising Sun from Cold Chisel but at a quicker pace with different words.

 

[Purple7x08_24]

And she aint heavy by the Beatles. Pretty sure its that song

 

[TheJanuaryMan]

One of the more ridiculous cases of alleged plagarism - when John Fogarty was sued for plagarising....himself.

Flashback: John Fogerty Wins Rare Self-Plagiarism Suit in 1988

John Fogerty won a suit that said he'd stolen "Old Man Down the Road" from Creedence Clearwater Revival's "Run Through the Jungle" in 1988.

Let Me In - Dinah Lee about 1966?



And Music Music Music - the Sensations 1961

 

[Electronic_Renaissance]

Someone mentioned I Feel Fine. I think this one is pretty common knowledge:

 

[00Stinger]

 

[Fossie 32]

some of the violin at the start of this


reminded me of from 8:50 on this


Which at 22:58 has a bit of this

Darn video taken down. It was one of my faves, Dazed and Confused by Led Zep off The Song Remains the same and the violin bow solo

 

[Fossie 32]

Intros similar [also bit like Nowhere To Run To by Martha and the Vandellas]

Uptight - Stvie Wonder


Spencer David Group - Keep On Running

 

[edgie]

I was disappointed when I realised it wasn't this



(though the best version of that is the one with Noel Gallagher -
)

 

[Fossie 32]

And from about 2:30



Chicago1

 

[Fossie 32]

Even my wife could hear this!
