    There are several Texas tunes that reference a lyric or a musical hint to existing songs, in my opinion.

    Can't be bothered to post links to them cos, well, who wants to listen to Texas songs on a wet Thursday morning?
    Black Eyed Boy steals from Tears of a Clown and While My Guitar Gently Weeps.

    Yep, this.


    I knew nothing of it at the time and I forget if they sound the same. I hate that Coldplay song.

    I do like some Coldplay though.

    The Verve's 'The Rolling People' off Urban Hymns basically IS in large part 'The Four Horsemen' by Aphrodite's Child.

    Paul Weller "borrowed" ELO's 10538 Overture.

    The Beach Boys took Chuck Berry's Swwet Little 16 and called it Surfin' USA.

    Am I the only one who finds that The Vapours' Turning Japanese and Blur's House in the Country have very similar choruses?

    'Shakermaker' by Oasis has a striking similarity to '70s Coke ad (the sort that the Gallaghers probably weren't interested in) song 'I'd Like to Teach a The World to Sing'
