I know, it’s a fairly common pop punk riff but here’s Blink-182 and Green Day. And there’s a lot of Green Day on this site.

Sum 41 vs. My Chemical Romance
Submitted by Travis.
Check out the chorus in Sum 41′s “The Jester” and the chorus of My Chemical Romance‘s “House of Wolves”. Pretty similar.

Boys Like Girls vs. The Who vs. Bon Jovi

Another one for Boston based Boys Like Girls. Last post was for the chorus similarity to the Killers track “Somebody Told Me”.
Todd points out the lead guitar in the “Love Drunk” intro and the lead guitar melody in the 2006 Bon Jovi track “Who Says You Can’t Go Home”. I’m also surprised that nobody has picked up on the similarity to The Who’s Baba O’Riley (aka Teenage Wasteland). Not only are the chord progressions the same, “Love Drunk” also has some sort of arpeggiation in the background much like Baba.
