Songs that sound like they were done by other artists

[mickill]

These are all pretty obvious...

Rebel Rebel by David Bowie sounds like the Stones

12:51 by The Strokes sounds like The Cars

Bells Ring by Mazzy Star sounds like The Jesus And Mary Chain

Rock Your Body by Justin Timberfake sounds like it was done by Michael Jackson...

Okay, that last one was really obvious.

Others?

Carol, You Can't Catch Me and Little Queenie by the Rolling Stones sound like Chuck Berry

[Drederick Tatum]

Can't Explain by The Who is basically a blatant rip off of the Kinks.

Except for the vocals, "Long Cool Woman (In a Black Dress)" by The Hollies sounds like Creedence Clearwater Revival.

"A Horse with No Name" by America sounds like Neil Young

Tom Waits tries to sound like Howlin' Wolf. So does Captain Beefheart, at times. That's cool.

"Can't Get it Out of My Head" - Electric Light Orchestra (John Lennon)

[Auton]

Except for the vocals, "Long Cool Woman (In a Black Dress)" by The Hollies sounds like Creedence Clearwater Revival

oh, i'd say they tried very hard to have the vocals sound like Fogerty

...they got a different dude singing it (who quit before they could go out on tour behind the hit) and they threw a lot of slapback on it, but it doesn't sound like Fogarty to me. More of an approximation than an imitation or anything. To me, anyway.

[grooveboy]

primus sometimes reminds me of residents

[hitmonlee]

"This is Such A Pity" - Weezer.... it's pure Cars.

[Darko]

The White Stripe's 'Red Rain' sounds like Zeppelin. I think Jack needed to get some led out.

[Brass_Munkey]

Beautiful World by RATM

off renegades

i understand it is a cover, so its not a ratm song, but their performance is really good yet really uncharacteristic of them

[abcdefz]

Weird... I thought I typed this already:

Freewheelin' Bob Dylan>Bob Dylan

[avfc]

Riot Radio by the dead 60's sounds like The Clash.

Hell even the name of the song sounds like a Clash tune
