Post subject: Songs You Once Thought Were By Other Artists
Plain and simple.
First, when I was 16 and really starting to get into rock, I thought just about every REO Speedwagon and Rush song was from Styx, because I had heard of them first and the voices were pretty similar. I also thought for a long time that "Do It Again" by Steely Dan was a Santana song.
Downloaded this on limewire back in my Nirvana obsessed youth and thought it was theirs for the longest time, blew my mind when I found out it wasn't. _________________ Shut up mate you're boring!
Probably not alone in thinking this was a R.E.M. song. Its a very easy mistake to make. The vocals are indistinguishable and the lyrics and melody are pretty similar too.
I downloaded this as part of a "More Songs About Buildings And Food" torrent. Obviously whoever made it got "The Big Country" confused with "Big Country". Its actually not a bad way to end the album, fades out nicely. _________________ If you're reading this, that probably means that I had something to say.
I thought "I Write Sins Not Tragedies" was by Fall Out Boy for the longest time. Also thought "No Tears" by Tuxedomoon was a Bauhaus song for some time. _________________
All my stupid friends thought that "Red Red Wine" was Bob Marley and the anarchy of youtube only reinforced that idea. I still meet people who think it's him. _________________
