I thought I'd start a music thread inspired by Jam the Man's predicament. This is a music thread of songs that are great but are complete rip-offs.
The greatest ones for me are: Radiohead, Creep completely and utterly ripping off the Hollies, Air that I breathe. 2 absolutely mesmerising and life-affirming pieces of music.
Others that I can recall are
Radiohead (again) with No Surprises ripping off Mark Owen, Child - not surprising (excuse the pun) as they were both produced by the same person
Kinky Afro, Happy Mondays ripping of Lady Marmalade
Inspiral Carpets, this is how it feels to be lonely. One particular bit completely ripping off Level 42 Lessons in Love
Charlatans, only one I know ripping off Deep Purple, Hush
Pet Shop Boys, its a sin ripping off Cat Stevens, Wide World (it WAS a rip-off despite what the courts say).
Any others chaps?
