Songs that sound alike

[bono_b]

Just list songs that are different but sound the same and ofcourse are by different artists...like Promises - megadeth, no leaf clover - metallica and dream on - aerosmith all have very similar riffs and are all brilliant songs

[BrainStew]

"Sad But True" by Metallica and "American Badass" by Kid Rock sound painfully similar.

[piggyman18]

Ice Ice Baby and Under Pressure have always sounded slightly similar. Maybe that's just me though.

[MalYoung]

Nickleback's How You Remind Me and their other song How Did We Wind Up Like This or whatever are just about exactly the same
Without You and Love hurts

[sparrky]

every ramones song ever.

[Ajax]

every ramones song ever.

Very true.

Why don't you get a job-Offspring and Ob-la-di, ob-la-da- The beatles

[UltimateFIEND78]

every ramones song ever.
Not really.

[Ghost Mountain]

there was this thing on a site once where it plays one nickleback song out of one speaker and another out of the other and they were allmost exactly the same. i dont remember what site it was though, but it was hilarious.

[monkeyphoneMARK]

All emo sounds exactly the same.

[Frostdaddy]

Ice Ice Baby and Under Pressure have always sounded slightly similar. Maybe that's just me though.
Same here actually.

[Codeman211]

Just about every popular Linkin Park song, probably the unpopular ones too I just have not heard them.

[Ajax]

All emo sounds exactly the same.

No. You're incorrect. You're saying that a whole genre of music sound the same.

Thats like saying all country music sounds the same. :shuffle:

[Kazimierz]

I just recently heard a Snoop song that i thought was "Vapors" for the longest time, but it wasn't. Any idea? Not that i care.

Emo doesnt sound the same. Music in a similar genre sounds similar, however. Otherwise it would be in a different genre.

[Codeman211]

It might be just me, but every time the song "Cold Hard Bitch" by Jet comes on the raido, I wait and listen to the intro thinking it is some kick ass AC/DC song, then quickly turn the station pissed off after realizing that it is the same boring overplayed song by the overhyped band Jet.

[th3_n33ms]

I forget what the song is called but Crosby Stills and Nash did a song and its almost identical to Stairway to Heaven by Led Zepplin, i heard somewhere Zepplin somewhat ripped CSN's song but i forget the name :-/

[plagued]

All emo sounds exactly the same.

heh.... i don't like emo, but you are completely wrong.

[Constantine]

"Sad But True" by Metallica and "American Badass" by Kid Rock sound painfully similar.

Oh my god YES!!! I was on launchcast and I heard the one after the other and I was like... WTF!? lol it was funny

[Dual]

"Pushing Me Away"- Linkin Park and "Numb" - Linkin Park

[wackojacko]

All garage-punk sounds the same.

Every song ever made by U2.

[k_tull88]

How You Remind Me by Nickelback and The Hell Song by Sum 41 sound a lot alike in the verses.

[Shifty-7]

every ramones song ever.

Haha that was the first thing that came to my mind

[/Tilt/]

every ramones song ever.
And dont I love 'em all.

[John w/the Wind]

Brainstew/Constantine:

"Sad But True" and "American Badass" both use Hammett's riff. Kid Rock got permission from the band, and in doing so angered a lot of the diehard Metallica fans.

[troutflosser]

i love the sex pistols, but their songs are quite similar

[figment]

"Sledgehammer" by Peter Gabriel and The Fresh Prince theme.

[Liberation]

Every Metallica song sounds the same to me same guitar riff!
The sex pistols songs do sound similar although i like them.

[DaveP]

Jets "are u goin tob e my girl" is a blatent rip off of "lust for life" by iggy pop
Jets new crappy tune is a rip off of the beatles imagine
and that toher jet song cold hard bitch is a rip off of a ac dc tun

JET = WORST BAND EVER

[Armed&Angry]

Ice Ice Baby and Under Pressure have always sounded slightly similar. Maybe that's just me though.
Yeah, damn that David Bowie for ripping off Ice's music and ruining his career!

Jets "are u goin tob e my girl" is a blatent rip off of "lust for life" by iggy pop
Jets new crappy tune is a rip off of the beatles imagine
and that toher jet song cold hard bitch is a rip off of a ac dc tun

JET = WORST BAND EVER

A-FUCKING-MEN! I actually heard someone comparing Jet as the new Led Zeppelin, I promptly cut off his balls so he couldn't pass on his seed to father any future dumbasses.

[MalYoung]

The only thing I dont really like about Jet is that they claim that theyre the next AC/DC and Who, when really, they have a couple of good songs, but the rest are snoozers and lame ballads

[/Tilt/]

Jet thinks they're the next Who?? Aw hell naw! Now I have to go castrate some assholes.

[Stupified]

"Sad But True" by Metallica and "American Badass" by Kid Rock sound painfully similar.

Yeah, It's pretty much the same. Kid Rock performed that song with Metallica on The Tonight Show once.

[xraycat]

I was listening to the radio the other day and "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" by Green Day came on. Only, when it was time for Billie Joe to start singing, the lyrics to "Wonderwall" by Oasis started playing and it worked perfectly! And at the very end of the song, it segued into "Dream On" by Aerosmith. It was so cool how they made these three songs flow together so perfectly.

[MJK]

Linkin Park has several cds full of the same song.

http://www.ugcs.caltech.edu/%7Epaymer/mer/all_linkin_park_songs_sound_exactly_the_same.mp3

How about Nickelback?

http://www.thewebshite.net/nickelback.htm

Seriously people, there's better music out there. Stop buying this crap.

[Codeman211]

hahah I like the Linkin Park one, they are a shame to music

[Wurby Tictoc]

"Heaven" by Live sounds like a ripoff of "Yeah!" by Zwan. The only difference is the vocal melody.

[Kenyan]

"Paperback Writer" by the Beatles and "last train to clarksville" or another song ( can't quite remember) by the Monkees


about comments made about Jet. They are okay but they pissed me off when they said they were/wanted to be bigger than the Beatles and The Who. :mad:

[Sparky_07]

Ice Ice Baby and Under Pressure have always sounded slightly similar. Maybe that's just me though.

It's a sample. There are lots of songs that have samples from old songs. I think they actually buy the rights to sample. Not sure though.

[strikeandburn]

"Sad But True" by Metallica and "American Badass" by Kid Rock sound painfully similar.
yeah i can agree with you on that, the intro part is the same.

Also there is a Fear Factory Song, which i believe is "Invisible Wounds" something in there sounds like some POD song. sorry i can't figure it out the exact sound at the moment, as i try to find it. oh forget it, i'm to lazy to figure it out at the moment, they all sound the same to me but one does sound really familiar. yell at me for being lazy, i don't care. :banghead:

[Umbrellajack]

Greenday has made over 100 songs since they began. By the early 90s, they ran out of 4 cord riffs so many of their new songs sound like ones from their early days.

[Well Me]

Jet thinks they're the next Who?? Aw hell naw! Now I have to go castrate some assholes.

Lol have fun with that :D :D but yea, i also realized those two bands were similar. Anybody else notice that the Used and the Donnas sound alike? i mean seriously compare their music to each others its pretty...odd

[taigster22]

it might seem a bit gay, but sweat by inner circle sounds exactly like mysterious girl by peter andre.
yes, i used to like those songs IN THE 90's!

[Fungus Amungus]

I agree, you are a bit gay.

[Dynex]

I was listening to the radio the other day and "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" by Green Day came on. Only, when it was time for Billie Joe to start singing, the lyrics to "Wonderwall" by Oasis started playing and it worked perfectly! And at the very end of the song, it segued into "Dream On" by Aerosmith. It was so cool how they made these three songs flow together so perfectly.

legion of doom.

[bartleysown]

Oasis "All Around The World" and Hearsay "Pure and Simple". Oasis threatened to sue i think

Also, TLC "Creep" and Texas "Once In A Lifetime", same chorus

[Sezril]

Cro-Mags - Crush the Demoniac (http://youtube.com/watch?v=Szq5lpalC_w) rips off a riff from Iron Maiden - Aces High (http://youtube.com/watch?v=4Sam5omG0v0). Quality blows on that Cro-Mags clip, sorry.

The riff from Behemoth - Conquer All (http://youtube.com/watch?v=38j-i8jH7xk) sounds suspiciously similar to Anthrax - Be All, End All (http://youtube.com/watch?v=fH3eMJmcVww) (ignore vid). There's no non-live versions of the original 1988 song with Belladonna on YouTube, so rerecording it is!

[Liquid Tension]

Stockholm Syndrome by Muse and Never Enough by DT.

Thanks Mike Portnoy!

[ToastedBagel]

Boulevard of Broken Dreams and Wonderwall are basically identical.

[Kellenator]

Well, since this thread has been resurrected... These songs all have a similar-ish intro riff:

Venom - Welcome to Hell
Mercyful Fate - Curse of the Pharaohs
Dio - Stand up and Shout
Iron Maiden - Two Minutes to Midnight

[Shameless]

What is Love by Haddaway
&
What I've Done by Linkin Park


Listen and realize it for yourself.

[temp100]

Garden of Shadows - Heart of the Corona & Metallica - Trapped Under Ice

Jet has made a career out of ripping off songs. My most hated one is Jet - Look What You've Done and Beatles - Sexy Sadie. They took a whole verse on that one.

Another particularly bad one is that annoying Puddle of Mudd ripping off Suicidal Tendencies - I Saw Your Mummy in the song She Fuckin Hates Me.

Also the riff in Seether - Remedy sounds suspiciously similar to one in a Steve Vai song... I'll see if I can find it.

[JLC]

Hendrix's Villanova Junction and Vai's Tender Surrender
