I heard this song playing on the radio the other day and thought it was a cover of The Strokes 2001 jam “Is This It?”.
Then I found out it was a song called “Movie Screen” (2019) by Tommy Newport.
And this is why I still run this website.
The End.

How am I only just finding about this guy now???!! Pat! Where have you been all my life?! My friend Ilan sent me one of Pat Finnerty‘s “What Makes This Song Stink” videos of The Red Hot Chili Peppers’ “Dani California” (see below) and it’s basically a 40 minute version of a ThatSongSoundsLike post and I love it. You can also find Pat Finnerty on Instagram where he famously (now I know about this, duh) got Dave Grohl to join him on IG Live. He’s been posting these Song Stinks videos as a series and I will be sure to post more of these here.

YouTuber AnDyWuMUSICLAND even made a great mashup of the two tracks here:
Here are both songs in full:
Harry Styles – “As It Was” (2022)
