Had fun in the drum intro thread. New idea for a challenge. Finding two songs that have extremely similar parts.

Dio - Holy Diver
Foo Fighters - Something from Nothing (2:04)






Mudvayne - Scarlet Letters
Stereoside - So Long

I don't have the track titles, but Hans Zimmer appeared to be using COPY/PASTE a lot when scoring Crimson Tide, The Rock, and Pirates of the Caribbean.

"Are You Gonna Be My Girl?" by Jet and "Lust for Life" by Iggy Pop. To this day, I am never really certain which song is on until about like 45 seconds.

Yeah. If you include sampling, this will be the longest thread on texags.

I like Chris Stapleton but his song on the F1 soundtrack is a stone cold rip off of the Stones' Miss You.

Have you heard of the Foo Fighters?

Because every one of their sheet songs sound the same to me. I truly hate that band with a deep passion for some reason

If I caught the middle part of Stranglehold by Ted Nugent on the radio, I had trouble telling if it was that or Bullet the Blue Sky by U2

…not the whole song, but the signature guitar riff:

The kick-ass original:



The lame knock-off:



…and the transition from the Intro to Verse 1 is the most incoherent mess in classic rock. Miller should be ashamed.
