songs that remind you of other songs
fugazi - sieve fisted find has this bass part (in the "please let me get my hands on it" part) that reminds me of kool thing
toadies - tyler / pixies - where is my mind interpol - say hello the angels / the smiths - this charming man every other interpol song / joy divison - shadow play I know I'm forgetting some, but I ALWAYS hear songs that sound like, or at least remind me of, other songs in some part... hmm. |

Smashing Pumpkins - Disarm / My Bloody Valentine - Sometimesyes.Also...Smashing Pumpkins - 1979 / Husker Du - What's Going On? (listen to the bass lines! almost identical!)
|

Also counting backwards by Throwing Muses has a very similar lead guitar part to Where is my mind, and also a song called "Oh yeah" by a shitty australian band called End of Fashion, shares the same rhythm guitar part, with one minor difference. Seriously, it's strummed the same way http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O_Yeah |
nice. that's hilarious.
lots of pixies ripping off. one i forgot to mention is "medium is the message" by mclusky.. haven't listened to it in a while but i remember the bass line being identical to a pixies song.. and more obvious: offspring - self esteem chorus riff / nirvana - smells like teen spirit elastica - connection / wire - ex lion tamer |
Two huge rip-offs by French bands:
Kaolin - Partons vite / Bob Dylan - I want you Cookie Dingler - Femme libérée / Iggy Pop - The passenger To judge by yourself: http://youtube.com/watch?v=JxaJIZ_FBsk http://youtube.com/watch?v=lDD7vF-SyaI |
There's a short bit on Charles Mingus' Black Saint ... LP that I always think sounds like the theme tune from Neighbours. I'm not trying to be clever here, I just really think that it does.
|
smells like teen spirit / boston's more than a feeling (chorus riff)
pavement's silent kit / lynyrd skynyrd's tuesday's gone (the "hand me the drumstick..." bit)...also the main part reminds me of a television song, although i'm not sure which. pavement's stop breathing (last part) / sonic youth's she's in a bad mood (last part) |
Queen of the Stone Age : First it giveth bass line / Sonic Youth : Mildred Pierce bass line
Exactly the same. |

haha! that was my one. |

i see your mildred pierce and raise you a tsol - sounds of laughter, listen to the bass riff in there, not to mention it was done way before any of those. |
Just noticed that:
Black Flag - Black coffe / Metallica - Disposable heroes ("back to the front" part) |
Nirvana-Come As You Are sounds a lot like Killing Joke-Eighties, the riff, I mean...
|
not really a song but the majority of The Swirliees' Blonder Tongue Audio Baton reminds me of My Bloody Valentine's Isn't Anything
|
Muse - Falling down (the guitar) / Jeff Buckley - Satisfied mind
|
If you listen to Les Razilles Denudes' B1 (Studio 1970) and Dinosaur Jr's Not The Same , you'll immediately notice that both songs use the same chords and vocal lines.

Also teen spirit has a similar rhythm guitar part to debaser by the pixies. |
Quote:
I think you're thinking of Wire's Three Girl Rhumba. Elastica's Connection also "borrows" from The Cars' Let's Go. |
Another well known one:
New Seekers - I'd Like To Teach The World To Sing/Oasis - Shakermaker |
Coldplay vs Kraftwerk's Computer Love
|
Yeah, I remember something on television about how chris martin asked Hütter for permission to use the riff.

If the two songs are in F and there's a similar rhythmic figure however it's not the same chord progression, harmonies and melodies so I actually don't find a resemblance. |

Indeed: http://youtube.com/watch?v=-Zlf_17hecY |
And frankly, KJ's is better.
|
aw come on. swirlies are way more creative.
|
and yeah i meant three girl rumba.. brain fart.

Ziggy Stardust-Where'd You Go(J & The Fog)
Only the riff though. |
Bit of an obscure one, but the song cut the shit by J Church, is EXACTLY the same as lewis (mistreated) by radiohead. It's not even funny!
|
Beatles - Sexy Sadie/ Karma Police
|
Quote:
