Sooooo many of Ed Sheeran's songs seem rather familiar

Apparently his lawyers are working 24/7 defending him in a few plagiarism cases , "allegedly"

Paul Mauriat's Love is Blue and Tom Bailey's Come to Far. The opening tune are the same, more or less.

The Jackson 5's ABC and New Edition's Candy Girl.

Mamalade's Falling Apart at the Seams - seconds into it, dare I say it, the first seven bars of the EastEnders theme - as heard here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74T8zdk0p3A

Depeche Mode's People Are People reminds me a bit of Moby's Trouble So Hard. The "why should it be" part does anyway.

M People's Dreaming sounds a bit like Chairman of the Board's Sweet Tuesday.

George Harrison's It Don't Come Easy isn't a million miles away from You Keep Me Hanging On by the Supremes. Not the only time that a Harrison song sounded like someone else's methinks - not surprising that Lennon and McCartney were better at writing songs.

I recently heard 'Undertow' by Warpaint. I can't believe they wrote it, recorded it and, presumably perform it all the time, and have never noticed it's basically got the same melody and chords as Dreams by Fleetwood Mac.

Habenera from Carmen / Da Do Ron Ron

John Miles Music (was my first love) and Blakes 7 theme

Whenever I hear the Manic street preachers 'If you tolerate this' the guitar sequence just echos the final part of the Blake's se7en intro, It's not exact but disturbing none the less
