"Borrowed" this idea from another forum.
This is not about a song sounding too similar to another, it is about a style sounding similar to another. Where an artist seems to have gone out of his way to do something different than usual with his/her sound to mimic another artist. One-off instances also count.
For example, many people mistake Sweet's "Love is like Oxygen" as ELO. Jeff Lynne has imitated Bob Dylan a few times. Or how about The Beatles going 'Beach Boys' for 'Back in the U.S.S.R.'
Any other examples?
