    Songs with the same intro

    I get that song as an ear worm quite often now. I have you to 'thank' for that.

        Surely you know both of the ones in the post immediately above yours?
        And yes, you're right.

            Damn, that's a good one!

            I'm slightly annoyed that, as I was listening to the former a couple of days ago and the latter is one of my favourite songs, I hadn't spotted it.

              Songs with the same intro

              Obstacle 1 - Interpol / Marquee Moon - Television
              Waking Up - Elastica / No More Heroes - Stranglers
              In My Place - Coldplay / Dreams Burn Down - Ride

              (The last of those examples has always annoyed the hell out of me, for some reason.)

                      Streets of Philadelphia – Bruce Springsteen / Live Forever – Oasis
                      I've been thinking this on and off since 1994. No-one else has ever mentioned it, though, so it may be just me, but the drum pattern that opens both always sounds the same to me. Have never played them side-by-side to check, mind.

                        Having just heard the former via YouTube, have to say I'm struggling with that one...

                                      A Ronettes version of LotP would have been interesting, but unlikely.

                                        I don't know, I think Ronnie could've channelled the Shangri-Las, if she put her mind to it.

                                        I'm just picking up fag ends from other folks' posts now...

                                            In the City - The Jam/Holidays in the Sun - The Sex Pistols

                                            Is supposed to sound similar; but it always was a bit of a stretch.

                                            like Taxman and Start a bit....

                                              Perhaps the next thread should be to name an intro that Paul Weller wrote for himself ?

                                                Heard culture clubs "it's a miracle " last night for the first time in years last night, the intros nearly identical to Gilbert o Sullivans "matrimony "

                                                  Listen to the first few seconds of 'The Fight Song' by Marilyn Manson and try not to shout "Whoo hoo!" (Song 2, Blur)

                                                  Edit - about 20 secs in

                                                    Yup. Can hear that.

                                                    Didn't Robbie Williams do a George Michael cover and nick the intro off a different George Michael song. (I want to say "Freedom", stealing the intro from "Faith" but I might be wrong.)
