Song Sound-a-likes!

In this interesting article on the BBC website they talk about how musicians should be wary of revealing their inspirations in case the copyright lawyers come-a-knocking. But what about more recent tracks that have throwbacks to certain big tracks. We're not in any way suggesting any copying or inspiration but it's difficult not to hear the similarities...

Imagine Dragons - Thunder vs Mia - Paper Planes

Listen to that chorus...

Arcade Fire - Everything Now vs Andy Williams - Can't Take My Eyes Off You

That opening from 00:46 has certain echoes from Williams' breakdown...

The Rocking Horse Club - Straight White Man vs ZZ Top - Sharp Dressed Man

Perhaps it's just the lead up to the titles of the song...
