I'm not saying that the new Rag + Bone Man number is the same as Dakota...

... by the Stereophonics. But you'll never see them in the same room together.

Dakota:

Rag + Bone Man Stereophonics tribute:

So no one else has noticed this?

I'm calling conspiracy of silence.

Either that or nobody cares about Dakota by The Stereophonics any more, which I have to say I find very difficult to believe.

Hmm, it's more like an uptempo version of George Ezra's Shotgun. They're all in the same ballpark.

The Axis of Awesome did this a decade ago.

I can't hear any similarity.
Rag n Bone Man rocks!

I'm with @HazelBite on this one! I can't see any similarities and I love him! Hoping to see him again in June.

Can't hear any similarities that should say.

@Renlay I just hope we will be able to go and see him in London in June.....what a voice!!

Bah. It's got the same sequence, the same chording, and the same two note drop introducing the hook.

Loads of songs have the same chord sequences though OP. It's a big part of how pop music works- the familiarity breads popularity. The melodies are completely different though.

They're all rubbish songs anyway

I thought it was Kings of Leon for a few days.

I prefer the cover.

Dakota is not a rubbish song.

Rag + Bone Man has got shit tattoos.

@TheyWalkAroundInWellies I have a tattoo very similar to one of his I'll have you know ... :)

@HazelBite I really hope so - small venue though so get buying as soon as we can!
