Songs That Sound Like Other Songs Part 1:
All the time nowadays when new music comes out and I hear it for the first time, I often find myself saying... "Hey that sounds like that other song!". This series of posts will be dedicated to pointing out songs that sort of rip off melodies from other songs.
My Chemical Romance - "Teenagers":
Sounds like a combination of Billy Ray Cyrus's "Achy Breaky Heart" and the song "Yellow Polka Dot Bikini".

Public Service Announcement
Just thought I'd let you know. . .
"Hot Topic Is NOT Punk Rock!" by MC LARS

Quite Possibly the Worst Rap Song Ever?
During my last post you will recall I was watching one of Fuse's top video shows and caught a terrible cover of "Kiss Me" by Six Pence None the Richer. To really add insult to injury what immediately followed that video happened to be the video below. . . which in turn became a catalyst for me making this blog.
Soulja Boy - "Crank That (Soulja Boy)"

The Kiss of Death, Terrible Cover Song
So I was watching Fuse for some reason the other day, and I started watching some sort of top 10 or 20 video's out right now thing they had on. All the sudden, I hear the opening chords of "Kiss Me" by Six Pence None the Richer . I was like wtf is this doing on here? But I soon realized it wasn't the beginning of their video.
I waited for Leigh Bingham Nash's lovely voice to come in and charm me with it's sweet melodies when suddenly I was assulted by a high pitch whiny male voice that seemed eerily familiar. For the first second or so I sort of busted out laughing at it but then this quickly turned into nausea. Now disgusted by the initial sound I continued to torture myself by watching the rest to see who just ruined this song. It was none other than New Found Glory. I thought I had been rid of them. I hadn't heard anything from them in a few years, and it seemed most pop punk bands had fallen off the radar or morphed into some sort of Emo band.
Alas it was true they were back (which is offensive enough) but then they had to kick it up a notch and go and butcher "Kiss Me". Turning the once cute and likeable song into a heap of whiny modern garbage.
