colin hodgkinson has a co-write on the spencer davis song! damn, i had no idea.
angel pavement's "maybe tomorrow" has a false start of the opening to "25 or 6 to 4".
the fall's "idiot joy showland" sounds like "time and changes" by b.f. trike.
the opening of the library track "fantasy impulses" by john tender has the same sound as the opening to "station to station".

Maybe it's a classic Renaissance figure, I don't know - the descending triad in the melody of the Mamas and the Papas' "Strange Young Girls" reminds me of "Heaven Heath" by Mellow Candle.

'My Breathing' by Gary Numan is essentially the middle 8 of Bowie's 'It's No Game' stretched out to 6 minutes, with some ranting about how Radio One won't play his records anymore and are sabotaging his career thrown in the mix.

LA Trance off the new Four Tet is just killing me - it reminds me very vividly of another song (or maybe two or three - it's melodic progression feels very familiar) but I can't place it. Anyone have the same feeling?

There's a mention of Carole King's 'Sweet Seasons' upthread but it's the wrong mention because the correct answer is clearly Sonic Youth's 'Winner's Blues'.

I always assumed this was an intentional homage; I mean it even borrows some of the "Sweet Seasons" lyrics.

Not an answer - but exactly the same for another track. The chord sequence in Lindstrom's Tensions - the one that comes in around 2:38 - is exactly like something very familiar but I can't for the life of me figure out what.

The opening verses for both songs sound the same. Every time I hear the Dua Lipa one, the crush verse gets stuck in my head.

It only works for the opening verse tho, the choruses are very different to work.
