I'm running late for work this morning, and have no time to be original. So here's a posting which is really a complete copy of something that Toad wrote a few months back.
Sometimes bands cannot deny that some of their songs are flattering imitations of others - for instance Start by The Jam is a near note-for-note copy of Taxman by The Beatles.
And how about these two:-
mp3 : Paris Motel - Mr Splitfoot
mp3 : Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Red Right Hand
Close enough if you ask me.
For more info on the actually quite splendid Paris Motel, have a read here. Mr Splitfoot can ne found on the 071 EP, but sadly, not on their excellent debut LP In The Salpetriere.
Footage available at The Video Villain. Including a stunning Nick Cave performance from an Austrailian awards show.
Must dash.

If you're talking like for like, how about this one....
The intro to Taylor Dayne's 80's disco stomper Tell It To My Heart and REM's sublime Losing My Religion....
Weird but true.
