Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
Pink Floyd's Echoes v Andrew Lloyds Bank's Phantom Of The Opera
The Kinks' Lazy Sunday Afternoon v Nancy Sinatra's These Boots Are Made For Walking.
Sometimes it's deliberate - I am no Oasis fan but a friend told me that they use small bits of Beatles songs.

If you are old enough, do you remember when you were watching the New York section of Live Aid?
And your grandma said to you......
"Huh? What is wrong with the guitarist? He doesn't look right. He is playing all the wrong notes. And He Isn't Wearing Any Clothes."

Where does it stop? And, is it fair to put it to a jury of general public, or should it really be a jury of composers?
I thought there is a similarity but not *that* overt.
History is littered with these - for example: Changing Man by Paul Weller is more than a little similar to ELO's 10538 Overture... but then again, our Jeff may have been a little inspired by Dear Prudence by the Beatles...
Let's all hope nobody tries to sue them regarding the song Kashire or Rage Against The Machine are going to have a very tough time explaining Wake Up.
All musicians are influenced by other musicians and realistically there's only a finate number of progessions, riffs, suequences that can be played in music - unless you count free form Jazz
