Am I the only one who noticed this about "Stay The Night"?

The riff played at the opening and after the second chorus sounds exactly like the opening to "Up Where We Belong" by Joe Cocker & Jennifer Warnes. Here, listen:

I wouldn't say "exactly". There sure are a few notes that are the same but the two melodies are not "exactly" the same, they're just kinda similar.

this again?

[inthehallwaynow 12,380]

what does that mean? im not up on my smiley stuff haha

[Johnny Higher 172]

Being a guitarist I can tell you that the notes used in the both song are basic.

So that's not a big deal.

ohh! no haha not another thread i just remember a shit ton of people saying "THIS SOUNDS LIKE THIS" in the uno/dos/tre album thread and i got real sick of it (with the examples above included many times) sorry if that came off mean sounding haha

If you listen to the intro for 99 Revolutions, it's almost the same as the riff in Bruce Springsteen's " No Surrender"

Similar but not the same

Oh yay, the old "this song sounds like an older songs, so that means that Billie is a thieving asshole, let's stop liking them!" argument.

Cool.

You might wanna put this in GD Q&A or another grouping topic of your choice from now on.
