There's "Sounds Like" and then there's "Possible Lawsuit."

"Mighty and Superior" by Conflict

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E3NSA1_bq1c

Same as "Seven Nation Army," no?

The Soup Nazi · 07.04.2013, 01:41 PM

Bob Dylan's "Every Grain Of Sand" -> Richard Thompson's "Saving The Good Stuff For You"

The Soup Nazi · 09.15.2013, 09:46 PM

Johnny Cash's "Ring Of Fire" -> Bruce Springsteen's "We Are Alive"

Also, the bassline in Caitlin Rose's "No One To Call" sounds very similar to me to the last bass notes in The Replacements' "Swingin' Party".

Tim Buckley - Once I was / Neil Young - Razor love

The Soup Nazi · 10.16.2013, 07:04 PM

The end of PiL's "Annalisa" reminds me of Nirvana's "Radio Friendly Unit Shifter"'s last moments. (It's the other way around, I know).

The Soup Nazi · 02.05.2014, 05:35 PM

Judy Garland's "Over The Rainbow" -> David Bowie's "Starman"

The Soup Nazi · 03.19.2014, 05:04 PM

Roxy Music's "The Thrill Of It All" -> Johnny Marr's "Sun And Moon"

Weakest song on Altar by a mile anyway.

Which is what the Starman waiting in the sky thought he'd do to us.

Christ, I didn't even think of that! See, you did blow my mind. Then blew it again. Nuthinn lefttt....

The Velvet Underground's "Sister Ray" -> Wire's "Strange"

Also, the ryhthmic strumming on Lou's "Walk On The Wild Side" sounds a bit like a narcotically slowed-down version of Archie Bell & The Drells' "Tighten Up" to me.

The Soup Nazi · 10.26.2014, 06:18 PM

Bush Tetras' "Too Many Creeps" -> Sonic Youth's "Kool Thing" ("I don't wanna...")

Drjohnrock · 12.11.2014, 06:02 PM

Slob Seger's hit Still The Same "borrows heavily" from Creedence Clearwater Revival's Sailor's Lament--music, gambling theme in the lyrics...but probably changed just enough to avoid a lawsuit. More's the pity.

lucyrulesok · 12.22.2014, 06:18 AM

i always get reminded of songs when they reference like one particular specific thing in the lyrics

e.g. Jeffrey Lewis in Three Quarter Moon sings something like 'Put KY Jelly on your eyeball and you can look right into me, and I won't even feel a thing'

Always reminds me of Leonard Cohen singing 'You were KY Jelly, I was Vaseline'

There are heaps of examples of this but this is the one I always use since it was the first time Ir ealised that was why I would associate songs as being similar even when they didn't sound anything alike and also since I love bringing up KY Jelly in conversation cause I'm puerile in a v. juvenile way.
