“We Are Young” by fun. has been driving me and a lot of people crazy. I’m still not able to put my finger on it but I am offering up these bits. Let me know if you have any others. I’m dying to know. Am I nuts?
fun. - "We Are Young (Chorus)" (2011)
Thompson Twins - "Hold Me Now" (1983)
Erasure - "A Little Respect" (1988)
This part is so similar to a Queen song. Bohemian Rhapsody? Is it a different song?? Let’s get to the bottom of this!
fun. - "We Are Young (Pre-Chorus)" (2011)
Queen - "Bohemian Rhapsody" (1975)
Tell me what you think in the comments
UPDATE 7/26/2012: I added a post for Paul Simon “Cecilia” (1970) vs fun. “Some Nights” since there have been few comments and submissions for it.
If you are all wondering why that “We Are Young” chorus sounds so familiar it’s because it is similar to National Lampoon’s “Holiday Road.” The leap to the 6th in the chorus is the key link.
Woah, nice call!
Listen to Pat Benatar’s …. “Love is a Battlefield”.
Beginning is identical to “Hey There Delilah” by the Plain White Tees.
Good find!
Angkun – Etre Une Femme vs. Yeh Ishq Hai – Shreya Ghoshal..
