Bakers Dozen

I hate to be a party pooper but that sounds nothing like Pink Floyd.

Songs that are mistaken for a different artist (Song - Sounds like ? - Actual Artist)Include, links if possible.

  1. California Girl - Neil Young -Chilliwack
  2. On the Dark Side - fake Bruce Springsteen - really John Cafferty
  3. Horse With No Name - fake Neil Young - really America
  4. “It’s a Heartache” - really done by Bonnie Tyler, but when it came out in 1978, I thought it was Rod Stewart! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8VGQTtENSs
  5. Don’t Worry, Be Happy - fake Bob Marley - real Bobby McFerrin
  6. Black Horse And The Cherry Tree” - Joan Osborne (who I thought sang it) - KT Tunstall (who really sings it)
  7. Lunatic Fringe - fake Pink Floyd, real Red Rider
  8. “Lies” by the Knickerbockers (but widely thought to be the Beatles) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1n03a7cLf0M
  9. A Public Execution” - fake Bob Dylan - real Mouse and the Traps
  10. “Come And Get It” by Badfinger. Again, a lot of people (including me) thought it was the Beatles (it was written by Paul McCartney) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jkkcs5JMiPs
  11. Remedy- fake Nirvana- real Seether
  12. “Catch the Wind” by Donovan (trying hard to sound like Dylan, and sort of succeeding) catch the wind Donovan - YouTube

Errr… I disagree, there is definitely alot of similarity to some Pink Floyd material. As a Canadian force fed Tom Cochrane and Red Ryder since 1980 or so, I know who it is, but I definitely see how others could mistake it.
