The "this song sounds exactly like ..." thread

[Chalphon]

Well... The chorus from Norway's entry is a complete rip-off of this song:

Not an inspiration. Not something that reminds us something else. Total rip-off.

Not that anyone cares anyway, but I found it appropriate on this thread.

Yeah, that is dangerously similar actually...

 

[lacrymea]

Yeah, that is dangerously similar actually...

Yeah, it is. But since the original song is from an unknown band, no one bats an eye...

The begining of Azerbaijan's entry really sounds very similar to Kiss me by Six pence non the richer.

I've thought about that too! (At least the first three guitar chords.) And if you want to add an extra detail: The drums right before that are similar to the ones in "Should've Known Better".

To me this sounds more like a metal cover of "He's a Pirate" from Pirates of the Caribbean
Like this one for comparison:

I can't be the only one that hears it.

I still think it's all based on a traditional rhythm, but I haven't identified it yet ...

Only the atmosphere/genre.

Surely the chorus of "Unicorn" has an older sibling somewhere ...?

"Skyscraper" - but that's not quite close enough:

Made this, just for the fun of it:

Two Eurovision mashups

Changed speed and pitch.

First one, absolutely. Second one, naah.

First one, absolutely. Second one, naah.

The second one is just "for fun" (a mashup). The other one: Yeah!

 

[jatojo]

(Instead) "I Wrote a Song" - I'm absolutely sure that there is at least one song that has the same note progression. It's almost in my head - just can't define it precisely.

I've been trying to remember what it is the chorus melody of Aijā reminds me of for AGES, since I first heard it. And I've finally figured it out!!

The verses of Blue by The Birthday Massacre. No accusations of plagiarism here, it's not all that similar really, I'm just glad to finally have pinned it down!

how dare you compare them

The end dance break to 2023 sounds like Kill This Love by BLACKPINK

Yes, most definately.
