Libertine Angel Posted October 19, 2016 Posted October 19, 2016 Not sure if this has been noticed before but the drum intro to Lights Out is almost identical to the single mix of California Uber Alles, and the end of East Jesus Nowhere is taken from it too.
cartoonjunkie Posted November 13, 2016 Posted November 13, 2016 Listening to Revolution Radio for the first time and noticed that Outlaws chorus sounds very similar to the one in Lupe Brown by The Fratellis... Got any other Green Day songs that you think sound similar to other songs? Lets hear 'em!!
Slash Posted November 13, 2016 Posted November 13, 2016 Troubled Times sounds very similar to While My Guitar Gently Weeps.
Second favourite son Posted November 13, 2016 Posted November 13, 2016 @cartoonjunkie There was already a thread for Green Day songs that sound like other songs, so I've merged your new thread into it. You can continue the discussion here Remember to make sure to search before creating new threads!

GreenDayTheory Posted June 13, 2017 Posted June 13, 2017 Guys has anyone noticed AAF solo of Going to Pasalaqua and intro of Dreamcatcher On August 19, 2016 at 5:40 PM, PussySlayer said: I always hear When I Come Around. Same chords and I'll say same tempo
Libertine Angel Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 Necroing like hell but anyone think the opening guitar of Somewhere Now sounds like the acoustic guitar in the end of 13th Floor Vendetta by the Damned?

Jollyroger118 Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 Is there a thread for GD songs that sound like other GD songs?

But I'm sure you can just use this thread for that. Also, Misery and Viva la Gloria (Little Girl) sound like Mama by MCR

disappearing_boy_39 Posted May 23, 2018 Posted May 23, 2018 GD Songs that Sound Like Others Rather than mention the ones that everyone notices, here are some less popular ones: The harmonica on Hold On — I Should Have Known Better by The Beatles The guitar solo on 21 Guns — Full House intro Ending of Worry Rock – Ending of Nowhere Man by The Beatles Side Project Songs that Sound Like Other Songs Intro to The Last Time — intro to I Want to Hold Your Hand by The Beatles The Last Time— Please Mr. Postman popularized by The Marvelettes Love is For Losers — Waiting (which sounds similar to Downtown by Petula Clark) Alligator — You Really Got Me by The Kinks GD Songs That Sound Like GD Songs Harmonica on Walking Alone — Solo on When It's Time Verses of Walking Alone — Verses of Amy I always like this one! The phrasing in FOD, "Somethings On My Mind..." is similar to the following lyrics: - Cheapskate on the Hill... - Nice Guys Finish Last... - Deadbeat Holiday... There are many videos on YouTube which compare GD songs with other songs.
LaughingClock Posted May 24, 2018 Posted May 24, 2018 You can't find me a GD song that I can't find something like it. Billie and the gang do not fear paying homage or playing to their influences including themselves.
BilIie Joe Armstrong Posted May 26, 2018 Posted May 26, 2018 If you think the problem with 21 guns is the solo sounding like Full House intro, you may want to listen to Telephone Line by ELO
BilIie Joe Armstrong Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 Tonight on A Little Part Of Me Dies With Each New Song I Discover Green Day Ripped Off: the guitar riff from The Pretty Things' "Midnight to 6 Man".

One song is I’m Not Your Stepping Stone, another is You’ve Really Got Me, etc.

Hermione Posted February 16, 2019 Posted February 16, 2019 I agree Foxboro gets a pass for "copying", nice to know another one they drew inspiration from though!
