Also, that "Morse code" guitar which introduces "Starman"'s chorus (yes, it's a guitar, not a keyboard) is a slowed-down version of The Supremes' "You Keep Me Hangin' On". Word!

Smog's "Cold Blooded Old Times" -> The Velvet Underground's "Sister Ray". Virtually the same riff (for a bit, at least), isn't it? OK, maybe I'm missing a "#" or a "b", I'm not a musician, but... if it ain't the same riff, it's remarkably similar.

Opening riff of Trail of Dead's "All Saints Day" reminds me of Sonic Youth's "Dirty Boots."

A couple of obvious ones which haven't been mentioned yet (perhaps precisely because they're obvious, I know):

— The "heavy breathing" part of Depeche Mode's "Personal Jesus" was lifted from Kate Bush's "The Dreaming" (the title track).

— The final riff (and even the "ohhhhh...") of the Red Hot Chili Peppers' "Give It Away" was lifted from the Butthole Surfers' "Sweat Loaf".

Both might as well have been samples.

Sweat Loaf is Sweet Leaf parodied.

Edit:
Crazy wiki-hole revelation...
"Sweat Loaf" is referenced in Red Hot Chili Peppers' song "Deep Kick" from their album One Hot Minute.

I did not know this as I left RHCP in the rear view mirror circa Mother's Milk and not even nostalgia can make them listenable to me anymore, but still crazy...

The Drones had to have had Buzzcocks' "Boredom" in mind when they did their own "Boredom" - listen to the refrain sung by Fiona Kitschin.

That video is fuckin' sick, by the way.

I mean...every song on this playlist sounds pretty similar. It might be the source material. It is the best playlist of the century thus far though, and still growing.

The Fall's "Rowche Rumble" reminds me of The B-52's' "Rock Lobster".

Mark E Smith is now struggling to raise from the grave in order to kick my ass.

Oddly enough, the driving bassline and percussion on Tipsy's Ugly Stadium reminds of SY's Destroyer

I still feel like Belle & Sebastian’s “The State I’m In” is really, really reminiscent of “I Want You” by Bob Dylan during the chorus. So much so that I’m surprised there hasn’t been some kind of lawsuit or at the very least public discussion about it.

Have you heard Paul Westerberg's "We May Be The Ones" and "My Dad"? They're seriously reminiscent of Dylan's "Sara" and "Positively 4th Street", respectively ("My Dad" -> "Positively 4th Street" in particular). No lawsuits!

Yeah, I can definitely see that.
By the way, I’m not saying there *should* be lawsuits, I’m just saying I’m surprised. Well not really because let’s be honest nobody’s making tons of money off “The State I’m In” — or either of those Westerberg tracks.
And maybe Dylan’s folk background makes him of a “it’s all everyone’s” mindset. Who knows. But I’ll bet Dylan could sue the shit lot of a LOT of people if he wanted to haha

He don't look back, like Dylan in the movies.
