Or is it just a coincidence....

These 2 songs came out in 1979. I wonder who bit who?
- Thread starter cashwhisperer
- Start date
Yep, very similar....
.... and both good tracks.....
... I've learnt to understand that writers and producers during the period would often allow or pass on their work to other musicians to re-create, sometimes out of respect of the other person's work or sometimes by mutual financial consent.

from talkin' to my family members who produce music...a little bit about the music game...it's pretty grimey...
quite frequently...the person who actually creates the beat...like my family members...doesn't get credit for it...

Same key
Same chord progression - Cm9 Dm9 G7b9
Same horn stabs and style
Same instrumentation, minus the synth bass
Probably not a coincidence but sometimes label heads will direct you to create songs with similar chord progressions, accents etc. based on other popular songs. Also, a lot of songs have the same writers, producers, or musicians that bring the same flavor to certain songs. Most of the time it's probably straight bites tho' lol
that in the mood cut is my jam.
I like Teddy P too he could sang.
As I've stated before, there are times when a writer or producer would pass a track that's been recorded already to a more prominent artist to get that track more shine. That being said, you're spot on, bruh!
could have been the same producers.. i've heard these types of similar sounds before with the same producer on different songs
I've wondered if SOS Band bit Paul Hardcastle on this one. They came out a year apart.
Same producers, IIRC.
Wow, ok
I think it was Jam & Lewis, but I could be wrong.
