Similarities in Songs
#1

Has anyone else notcied that Family Band sounds a bit like Wake Up by the Arcade fire?

Are there any other instances of this in the hip catalogue?

Actually I didn't notice that, and I'm still struggling to hear it.

I always thought "Little Bones" had a striking similarity to The Cult's "Wild Flower"............very similar guitar riff

First time I heard "Trickle Down" back in 89 I assumed it must be a Stones cover.

For me, the most obvious one is "Wild Mountain Honey" sounding very Zepplenesque.

Boots Or Hearts reminds me a damn lot like the Pink Houses riff by Mellencamp.

Lionized reminds me of REM's 'Near Wide Heaven'.
Cordelia always remind me of the band 'Live' around the 'Throwing Copper' era.
Heaven is a better place today always sounds like The Jam to me as well.

Heaven Is A Better Place has almost the same intro to Tom Petty's "American Girl"

I think the opening riff of "Fifty Mission Cap" sounds like any number of Motley Crue songs...

A few years ago, I actually heard the opening riff from pink houses on one the area's top AOR stations and got excited thinking they were playing "Boots".
