Little Richard's 'Keep a knocking' just came up on random
When the drum intro started I honestly thought it was going to be this

'Signed D.C.' by Love just came up and I thought it was going to be a cover of the Moody Blues 'Nights In White Satin'. Apparently I'm not the first person to notice this https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL765CC0763A25B3AB
Love:
I need someone to tell me what song has the same music/beat when he sings the “I’m gonna ride my horse........” part in old town road by lil nas. I can’t remember what song sounds like that for the life of me. It’s driving me crazy.
Sorry, it sounds like lots of things which makes it hard to pin down. Will let you if I can discern something definitive.

@hingehead,
A bunch of soldiers from my office made the trip to Woodstock...I would have loved to see the bands...but porta-pottys and sleeping in the mud wasn't something I was willing to do..........Today coming home from an appointment and listening to the radio, the DJ said there would be a 50th anniversary concert to commemorate Woodstock..then he started to announce who was going to perform....the first name was Miley Cyrus..DO THEY HAVE TO RUIN EVERYTHING?????
Have no idea why but a live version of Daryl Braithwaite's 'One Summer' just came on and I thought it was going to be a bad, slow, cover of David Bowie's 'Panic In Detroit'. I mean they're really both just variations on the Bo Diddley beat.

Take a listen to this John Lee Hooker song and you tell me if you think it's a direct rip off (rather than a coincidence).
Did you think of this straight away?

John Lee Hooker recorded that song in 1962,
Daniel Flores who used the stage name 'Chuck Rio' wrote Tequila and recorded with the Champs way back in 1958.....
(I gotta say it hurts to think Bo Diddly borrowed the rhythm structure)
OK, really interested if anyone hears this the way I do
"New Faces In The Field" - IIIrd Tyme Out
The chorus (first heard at about the 58 second mark):
Quote:
And the house still looks the same,
though the name on that old mailbox has been changed.
And the tractor turns the Earth,
That my daddy and a mule had plowed up first.
Has the same melody line (at least that's what I think it's reminding me of)
As a bit of "Won't Get Fooled Again" - The Who
Quote:
And the world looks just the same
And history ain't changed
'Cause the banners, they are flown in the next war
