The Killers' "Smile Like You Mean It" has a keyboard riff that sounds EXACTLY the same as another song, but I can't thing what it is. It's the repeated rising then falling 3 notes. I think it's vocal in the other song. "ooooo-EEEEE-oooooooo ooooo-EEEEE-oooooooo'

It's my earworm. It's like a siren going off in my head and it's driving me mad!

Please can someone help me out?

I'll have a listen. The way you've written it makes it look like the doctor who theme songSmile

First 2 notes are indeed the same as Dr Who, but it's definitely not that!

Uprising by Muse? That's got a Dr Who-ish theme thing going on.

Never heard that song before but just listed on YouTube. Apart from it sounding like The Automic - Monster I can only detect Roxy Music influence.

Love will tear us apart - Joy Division?
