'Songs that sound alike' thread

[Sir Michael 5,287]

Anything produced by Lex Luger and DJ Mustard.

[Bocknoi 138]

 

 

 

[Carbinax 196]

The theme tune to the Banana Splits blatantly ripped off the yay ya ya part of Bob Marleys "buffalo soldier" but speeded it up

Also notice how the intro sounds similiar to this:

 

[Stephan90 824]

These two sound similar to me. Really the only ones I could think of right now.

 

 

 

This song seems to be a damn rip off from this song from 1991

[DaWiesel 1,625]

Even though both artists knew they were ripping off each other

Interestingly, both were featured in the Project Gotham Racing series. I guess few people noticed this due to the latter not being released as a single.

Breaking Benjamin - The Diary of Jane

 

 

Deathgaze (from Japan) - Forsaken

The first track sounds p similar to this:

 

[JustinBieber 0]

I guess all songs sound pretty much alike when the only thing you've ever listened to is "radio music". Noobish thread needs to be locked and thrown into pop music category. Thanks.

Hi mustard pimp.

Bye mustard pimp.

[Abel. 5,854]

Listen to the opening riffs:

A lot of bands "borrowed" from Saxon. I don't have an issue with it in this case--Iron Maiden are top and Two Minutes to Midnight has its own merits beyond the opening riff.

[Vega LVI 322]

'Taurus' by Spirit and 'Stairway to Heaven' by Led Zeppelin...

Idk how many of you are aware, but there is/was a plagiarism lawsuit against Zeppelin for using the same opening guitar arpeggios as in 'Taurus,' w/o giving Spirit a songwriter's credit. Ofc it's nearly an identical chord progression, but was it really "stolen" by Jimmy Page?

Who the hell knows...?

Talk dirty to me, 'cause baby I'm worth it.

[Mister Pink 11,254]

Don't tell this doesn't sound like Sweet Home Alabama

 

This was recorded about 3 years before it.

 

 

[9i OTD 625]

The openings of Rape Me and Smells Like Teen Spirit, both by Nirvana, could be confused by a new listener

[Platypus Chairlines 55]

 

[theGTAking101 2,393]

Listen to the chorus of both songs, they kinda sound alike. People are getting mad saying Taylor copied Lana but I don't really have a problem with it. I love both of them.

 

 

[sammystarock 327]

That's a nice thread idea!

 

Now, I won't post two songs than sound alike, but a video by Vsauce related to this topic, which I think is very interesting:

 

 

[UshaB 3,769]

I'm feeling this. It's a great watch.

 

[mr quick 10,566]

^ Pretty much illustrates why I hate the pop music industry so f*cking much. We know so much about harmony, melody, rhythm, instrumentation, synthesis, resonance, sound, dynamics etc. but we waste it on sh*tty, compressed and unextended functional harmonics in the key of money.

 

 

...alright, breathe. No rant.
