Billie Eilish “Bury a Friend” sounds like The Doors”People are Strange”

Billie Eilish definitely has her own unique sound. But I couldn’t help hearing The Doors influence in “Bury a Friend”. Have a quick listen:


The Doors vs. Muse

Kirb and Hunter both sent me this so I had to check it out. Muse put out a new single called “Psycho” and the main guitar riff sounds a lot like “Roadhouse Blues” by The Doors. I’m sure you can probably trace the origins of this bluesy riff back a few more decades.

Have a listen!

Muse - "Psycho" (2015)

The Doors - "Roadhouse Blues" (1970)

I’m surprised this one hasn’t been submitted a million times. Here we have The Kinks 1964 single “All Day and All of the Night” with The Doors 1968 track “Hello, I Love You”. I’ve also included The Kinks’ 1981 song “Destroyer” which is borrowed from their own song.

In the liner notes to The Doors Box set, Robby Krieger has denied the allegations that the song’s musical structure was stolen from Ray Davies, where a riff similar to it is featured in the Kinks “All Day and All of the Night”. Instead, he said the song’s vibe was taken from Cream’s song “Sunshine of Your Love”.

I’m not really sure how “Sunshine of Your Love” is related but here are the other tracks:

The Kinks - "All Day and All of the Night" (1964)

The Doors - "Hello, I Love You" (1968)

The Kinks - "Destroyer" (1981)
