The Author Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 I wanted to have the REM / Elecman thing linked here, but youtube is being a "an error has occurred" bitch and I can't check if the video I found is good.

WillRock Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Dragonball Z Budokai - Challengers same Song Structure, same chords. Coincidence? I think not, seeing as there are two other songs in that game that do the same thing to two other songs on the album that stratovarious song came off Not to mention two journey songs and a few black sabbath songs to top it all off. The composer for the budokai games was Kenji Yamamoto, but I don't seem to know of any soundalike songs on the metroid soundtrack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazygecko Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Two Crude Dudes Grand Master Flash - New York New York http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rt02XFInA1I Incidentally the game itself is set in New York. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Vagrance Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Can - Turtles Have Short Legs inspires Parappa the Rapper's car level which is similar to (and possibly influenced) which sampled the original Can song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyril the Wolf Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 You know what that intro reminds you of. You know it. If you don't know it you fail at video games It's Kakarokio Village Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

musenji Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 I noticed this similarity between People Seized With Life from Chrono Cross, and a section of music from Smallville. The three chords, followed by the three melody notes, are exactly the same in the two pieces--just a half step off in key. [edit] There wasn't anything I could do about the dialogue--you just have to listen around it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chernabogue Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 I remember this : ("Underwater Theme" from SMB and "Main Theme" from "Bienvenue chez les Ch'tis") It seems that French film music composers like using Koji Kondo's music Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocre Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 Not sure if the equivalent should be considered a 'real life' counterpart but I've always heard the Shooting Gallery theme from Ocarina of Time in . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MkVaff Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 I always thought the Beatles "Lady Madonna" sounded like one of the songs from Dr. Mario. I'm surprised I haven't seen that one mentioned on here before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
