  Everyone rips off GaGa these days, but she's still the HBIC!

  'Don't Turn Around' by Ace of Base came out in 1994.
  How are they ripping off Lady Gaga when 'Alejandro' came out in 2010?

  I couldn't believe it when Craig David released Hidden Agenda:

  Listen to the first verse, and then listen to the first verse of this Jon B track, which was released a couple of years earlier - it sounds VERY similar:

  I always thought the guitar in James - She's A Star & Natalie Imbruglia's Torn were exactly the same

  there's a song by Beady Eye (liam gallagher's new group) called the roller and when that plays on tv I start to sing instant karma by john lennon

  
  It's unusual for one of the Gallaghers to rip off one of the Beatles

  I said it ages ago in another thread but I think Amy MacDonald's This Is The Life sounds very similar to The Ketchup Song by Las Ketchup.

  James Blunt's new single Dangerous sounds like someone has mixed together the verse of Chesney Hawkes' 'I am the one and only' and the chorus of Maniac by Michael Sembello to create a new (and annoying) song.

  Calvin Harris - Acceptable in the 80s (2007) sounds almost identical and has the same beat to one of his other tracks on the album called 'Vegas'.
  
  Youtube the two tracks and compare, or simply listen to his first album I Created Disco (2007)
