Title: Similar Tunes
Post by: GeorgeSteele on September 18, 2013, 10:32:15 AM

This thread is for naming any songs you think have similar riffs, melodies, beats, etc. 

Here's a few already notorious rip-offs and a some I think sound similar:

1.  Bo Diddley Beat / GNR - Mr. Brownstone / U2 - Desire / Izzy - Time Gone By

2.  Animals - Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood / Springsteen - Badlands

3.  Beatles - Sexy Sadie / Radiohead - Karma Police

4.  Blondie - Call Me / U2 - Staring at the Sun

5.  All AC/DC songs  ;D

That sounded like Nickelback as well. Which is far from a good thing...

Led Zeppelin has some songs that sound like other songs: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JyvLsutfI5M

Funny you posted this

A local bar band here in Tulsa aptly named "Rockshow" does a cool mashup of the two songs, the integration
is great.

I'll see if I can find some audio/video.
