Lenny's new song Strut sounds like a slowed down version of Satate of Shock.

T. Rex - Bang A Gong Prince - Cream
Miriam Makeba - Quit It Prince - Colonised Mind
Just to name two. There's also the Italian disco jam form way back in the day that sounds amazingly like Chelsea Rodgers.

Sheila E's Wipe the Lipstick Off Your Collar sounds so much like Stevie Wonder's Village Ghetto Land right down to the synths. Did Prince really right this song or was it Wendy and Lisa? It's credited to Sheila and Brenda Bennett, but who knows? |

speaking of the Jacksons....
"Things I Do For You" from Destiny (1978),sorta reminds me of Earth Wind and Fire's "Magic Mind" (from their 1977 All N' All album)
It's not a rip-off,though...just minor similarities in the groove and the horns | |

Good picks. Killing Joke did complain about CAYA but I don't think it resulted in any lawsuit. | |

SOURCE:
Contrary to what many people believe, Robin Thicke's Million Dolla Baby does state that the track contains interpolations from Marvin Gaye's Trouble Man.

^^ wow,I thought I was only one who noticed a similarity between Rick Springfield's 1983 hit "Human Touch" and Sheila E's 1984 hit "The Glamorous Life".Compare the choruses of both songs. | |
