Vaguely similar but not nearly as much as a real example of two songs that sound almost identical, like “don’t worry be happy” and the 4 non blonds “what’s going on”. Those songs are very similar. Unlike the two songs in the OP.
Yeah, no. That’s one of the stupidest comparisons I’ve heard.
Now I have two songs I don’t like stuck in my head.
Thanks Cory!
My favorite ZZ Top trivia are that Frank Beard (drummer) is the one without a long beard. And that he and Dusty Hill were in a fake American version of The Zombies before ZZ Top.
I’ve always kind of liked some of the hit ZZ Top songs, and am a lifelong U2 fan (go ahead and hate, U2 haters) but don’t quite get this mashup, seems like you could overlay a lot of songs on top of Where The Streets Have No Name or many other U2 songs since they are so heavily based on the guitar delay/reverb rhythm as a drone along with the bass and drums for Bono to sing over.
Tempo and key matched huh? So you have these songs in 4/4 with a key change every 4 bars and a bridge at 16 and the guitarists are playing 8th notes. Pretty much the vanilla template for rock.
Yeah, if you go around doing
just tempo and key matching
you’re going to quickly find out that a whole shit ton of songs sound like a whole shit ton of other songs.
Well, there’s your problem:
Operator: What is the emergency?
Caller: I want to report a murder.
Operator: And where are you?
Caller: I’m at 1520… aw, shit.
Operator: I’ll need a complete address.
Throw in “Maneater” by Hall and Oates and you have a superfecta.
Those two and a hundred more:
