Jukebox With a Heartbeat - (There'll Never B) Another Like Me

(I think that's the one - something got released after Jukebox that really reminded me of it)

If you sing the melody of the verses without the music, they are identical

1999

"I was dreaming when i wrote this,
forgive me if it goes astray."



Manic Monday

"Six o'clock already
I was just in the middle of a dream."

Same exact vocal melody...cmon now, this is old news and well documented and reported....just listen to them both

Thank you for messing that up.

Bloody Mouth sounds like an early version of Alphabet Street. Not like Wedding Feast. Cat is doing her mediocre rap on BM and the whole setup is mediocre really.

The melodies are identical. Lisa Coleman confirmed.

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

Any old pair of ears can confirm it.

5Adore-Crucial

1. That's a stretch! "Emancipation"/"We March", ok.

2. 1st idea, 2nd idea...

3. Hmmm

4. Original Linn beat vs. sampled Linn beat

5. These two songs are definately unique, but production qualities are similar. "Adore" has no guitar, though.

.

How's this for a stretch:

"Another Lonely Christmas" is very "Purple Rain"-ish, although it's all Prince and not with the Revolution.

Listen again. The melodies are just about identical. Ignore the arrangement. You can sing one over the other in the verses.

Yeah I was just thinking about this the other day. The stuff he did for App6 was all very similar, throw Katrina's Paper Dolls, Mia Bocca, and even My Love Belongs To You. That Purple Rain 2 concept comes together real quick when you think of some of these songs together.

"Come On" is like the exact same beat as "Forever in My Life". People get tripped cause the songs themselves are completely different ("melody" blah blah), but beatbox or hum with that electronic bassline dun-dun-dun-dunn included on both, slightly different tempos.

"I Wish U Heaven" resembles a metronome. Not even remotely like those other two other than they all got that programmed digital drum thing going on.

she gave her angels from 03:10 - 03:20 is purple rain.

I was just listening to this and noticed it again. Not really songs that resemble each other
but it's a little bit that sounds identical in both songs.
