Songs that sound like other songs
I had a look in the forum and couldnt find a thread on this
There's probably been some before though.Sometimes I find it quite funny if I hear a song and think it sounds like something else. For example, the start of the verses of "Reach" (S Club 7) is (IMO anyway) basically the same melody as the start of Lionel Richie's "Truly" but sped up ![]() http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1xiFRccd88 - Lionel http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tgu56ur7LIw - S Club Reach has a very Motown sound though! I can imagine them singing You Can't Hurry Love at the start ![]() Oasis ripped off the melody of "I'd Like To Teach the World to Sing" for Shakermaker

Diana Vickers released a song recently and the chorus had the same chords as Under The Bridge by the Chili Peppers.

Indeed
I was going to say that one, I think she got in trouble for that. Didnt she say she was listening to Under the Bridge while she was writing it?Hear'Say's old song "Pure and Simple" sounds like a cross between Never Ever (All Saints) and All Around the World (Oasis)

![]() Hearsay's The Way to Your Love sounds like That's The Way it Is by Celine Dion. |

Nearly every Oasis song I hear makes me think of something else.

The start of Whatever sounds like How Sweet to be an Idiot
Doesnt the opening of Don't Look Back in Anger sound a bit like Imagine? Everyone has influences though

Hear'Say's 'Everybody' also sounded very much like 'Keep On Movin' by 5ive.

Ke$ha's Tik Tok and Katy Perry's California Gurls have very similar backing tracks.

Blur's Song 2 sounds similar to Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit.

It's not a dig at Oasis, I quite like them in small doses. But they're not very original, I prefer not to be slapped in the face by a bands influences.
I didnt think you were digging at them ![]() Get Out of Denver (Bob Seger) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WWHdBuOC6Q sounds just like this! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I8JULmUlGDA A great song, but Bob's song IS Johnny B Goode

The chorus of Blue's 'I Can' sounds exactly like 'Written In The Stars' by Tinie Tempah and Eric Turner.

Resistance by Muse is rather similar to Call Me by Blondie.
Blondie even incorporated it into Call Me during the Endangered Species tour: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWzduzpA4bY |

I've always thought "Halfway Gone" by Lifehouse sounds a lot like "Move Along" by All American Rejects.

Born This Way & Last Friday Night. "ooh there ain't no other way, baby I was born this way" is basically the melody of the verse to the Katy Perry song.
