Simple Minds are not even hummable to me - I've blocked them out for all these years.

SM = knobcheeze

Oh my :eek:

EVERY song sounds like another one.

I don't have the time to sum them all up nor to crash the HL database by posting them all ;)

* Under Pressure - Bowie and Mercury / Ice Ice Baby - Vanilla Ice

* Ob-la-di-ob-la-da - The Beatles / Why Don't You Get A Job - The Offspring

* Every song by Nickelback. :urff:

IZ.

Jamiroquai's entire back catalogue and beyond. How that s**t has gotten away with it for so long is laughable... wanker.

Iron maiden : Afraid of the dark n Temple of Lurve by da Seestas of Merci.

George Bush's rhetoric on the war in Iraq and Global terrorisim . one broken record if I've ever heard over and over again that all sounds the same ( ooh bit of politics there!)

Rosetta Stone and the Sis...oh that was too easy.

Achilles last stand : Led Zepellin and Severina by the Mighty Mishun (even used the same 'fade in') Like we wouldn't notice!! Or, maybe it was done as a tribute to them ? Who knows, excpet if you bought the 'poster' edition of the 12" , Craig is wearing the hat he stole off me in Rock City,Nottingham..the swine!!!

This thread is really p!ssing me off because I know there are millions of songs which, when I hear them, remind me of other ones but for the LIFE of me I just cannot think of any once you ask!
