Music/songs similar to other

As the title says, lets post song that sound similar to some other. I'm not necessarily talking about plagiarism here, though it might be in some cases. But songs that at least coincidentally share some similarities in melody, harmony or such with some other work.

 

I'll start with this song from Rival Sons' first album: 

Pocketful of Stones

 

 

This band owes a lot of it's sound to Led Zeppelin, but that song in particular sounds a lot like these 2:

 

Houses of the Holy

 

 

And

Dancing Days

This is quite a well known song by Deep Purple:

Child in Time

 

 

Which is suspiciously similar to this song by It's Beautiful Day

Bombay Calling

 

 

Actually, Deep Purple guitarist Ritchie Blackmore admits that he "borrowed" Bombay Calling's main riff to write Child in Time.

This Tom Petty's song spawned no one but 2 similar songs:

 

The most obvious:

 

 

And:

 

(In The White Stripes defense I once made a pretty much identical riff without having heard either this song or Tom Petty's before, so I guess is not that hard an idea to come by :ninja: )
