Posted March 23, 20214 yr The drumbeat intro to these 3 songs all sound identical to me: Iggy Pop - Lust For Life Supremes - You Can't Hurry Love The Jam - Town Called Malice Then it got me thinking actually this is a pretty common beat. Jet's Are You Gonna Be My Girl & The Fader's No Sleep Tonight also use it. Didn't realise it was such a popular sample even though it sounds so obvious now. Any more? Or any other similar sounding songs you didn't initially realise?
March 24, 20214 yr If I remember right: Adele - Hello Sam Smith - Writing's On The Wall Sia - Alive all have very similar intros, and all released within a month of each other in 2015. I remember I'd hear a piano intro on the radio and genuinely not know which of those songs it would be!
March 26, 20214 yr There were several times where I'd hear the intro for Shape of You in a club and get all excited thinking it was Sia's Cheap Thrills.
March 28, 20214 yr I can't name them off the top of my head but I always seem to come across songs that have similar intros to the roses' fools gold. they just follow me!
October 29, 20213 yr Author The Weeknd - Take My Breath. The start of it sounds like a mix of all 3 of these: Survivor - Eye Of The Tiger Stevie Nicks - Edge Of Seventeen The Police - Bring On The Night Could even add Scissor Sisters - Comfortably Numb, just a slightly higher pitch.

October 29, 20213 yr The Supremes - Where Did Our Love Go / Ace of Base - Always Have, Always Will / Mero - It Must Be Love / S Club Juniors - Automatic High. All have that same "clip clop" Motown intro on them!

October 30, 20213 yr Oh that's a good shout, had never noticed it before. To be fair it was actually this site what made me notice this a couple of years ago now but it’s the first one what come to my head what hasn’t already been said :lol:
October 30, 20213 yr Inspired by the Look At Me thread a few further down the page but whenever I heard Geri's song I always thought it was going to be a Propellerheads one, History Repeating if I remember correctly.
