The Script - For The First Time
Scouting's first album was like a theme song (She's So Lovely) followed by variations of it. Their second probably wasn't the same.
As for The Script, I thought Breakeven was a run-down version of The Man Who Can't Be Moved.

Back when The Script were bearable...
Another one I thought of
Jessie J - Price Tag
Miley Cyrus - Party In The USA
Come Together and You Can't Catch Me by Chuck Berry.
Apparently they were similar enough for John to be sued and be forced to record a covers album hence his Rock n Roll album, in which he covered You Can't Catch Me:
I remember first hearing Make Over and thinking it sounded identical to Overload - especially the "overload in my head"/"overkill, now I'm ready to fight" bits. And basically the whole instrumental. I'm pretty sure the Overload writers got credited on Make Over in the end.
Surprised no one's mentioned The Jam-Start and The Beatles-Taxman yet.
This reminded me of The Enemy's We'll Live and Die In These Towns which is basically bits of The Jam's Going Underground and That's Entertainment stuck together.

although fair play to Chris Martin who openly acknowledges that they ripped off Kraftwerk
In a similar vein, Coldplay's song Shiver is basically just an upbeat version of Grace by Jeff Buckley, which Chris has also since acknowledged.
I've always thought Joints & Jam by the Black Eyed Peas sounds an awful lot like Award Tour by A Tribe Called Quest. Also, One Way or Another by Blondie has a reeaalllly similar guitar riff to Teenage Kicks by the Undertones.

The intros are especially similar.

Probably because Jessie J wrote both of them?

Wasn't there also a row over the Ghostbusters title song sounding similar to a Huey Lewis tune?

Also Coldplay's Talk

is basically Kraftwerk's Computer Love

although fair play to Chris Martin who openly acknowledges that they ripped off Kraftwerk
Also their song Cops and Robbers is a huge rip off of Lovecats by The Cure.

- Joy Division + major campness =
Eric - Boy Or Girl
The intro to the Sugababes' Wear My Kiss and Adam Lambert's If I Had You sound very similar.

Kelis Rogers ft. Cee-Lo Green - Lil' Star
