Default Some songs are so similar...

Hey, everybody. I was listening to 'Dance, lady, dance' by Crown Heights Affair. Don't you think that is a TOTAL ripoff of 'Fly, Robin, Fly' by Silver convention? They are sooooo similar.

Do you know of any other ripoffs like this?

Most famous is probably Le Pamplemousse's "Le Spank", which is a shameless and admitted rip of Barry White's "It's Ecstasy When You Lay Down Next To Me"... although I think Spank actually got released first. I need to go check my dates on that...

Didn't Erotic Drum Band's "Plug Me To Death" sound exactly like Pattie Brooks' "After Dark" sans vocals?
