Maybe there’s a reason why R.E.M. didn’t release “All the Right Friends” until 1993, 10 years after it was recorded. Check out Cheap Trick’s 1979 rocker “Way of the World”.

I have one for you- it’s egregious!
Check out Broken Bell’s song:

What they ripped off, by Missing Persons:

Sounds like 38 Specials If i’d be the one
Both songs remind me of Journey’s “Faithfully” speeded up.
Yuo! I updated this post with that:
