The Eagles. Take It to the Limit.

One In A Million by Maxine Brown and Uptight by Stevie Wonder. I don't know which came first but one blatantly rips off the other.

Let's get it on - Marvin Gaye and

Thinking out loud- Ed Sheeran

You can even sing one over the other and it doesn't clash.

Imagine- John Lennon
Don’t Look Back in Anger- Oasis

Quite a few of these contain samples of the other song eg I think I'm in love and Jack & diane.
Didnt Ed Sheeran have to pay a lot of money because of the Marvin Gaye similarity?

Mama do the hump and George Michael Faith. Apparently it’s not a sample but Hmm

TinyGhostWriter · 11/01/2020 18:34

Get it on- T Rex
Cigarettes and Alcohol- Oasis again

There are bound to be more Wink
