Some Nights sounds like Simon and Garfunkel Cecilia
jon
not really all that similar different beats and everything
WV17
Hahaha the beat/rhythm is the most similar part!
soundsjustlike
Hey Jon – I agree, the beats are different. It’s the background vocal melody that stood out to me. And, even though the beats are different, they share a common vibe IMO.
Alex
Jon, are you kidding me?
sounds like a ripoff. nice catch.
Josh
Haha i thought this the second i first heard the Some Nights. Nonetheless i love them both!

Vsauce, very smart, again. Thank you for the link. And wow….that 4chords link was a gem as well.
Adam Lawrence
I let my friend listen to them both. After she heard Cecilia, she gasped “HEY, They ripped-off F.U.N!” I then showed her the release dates and the cover arts above and she quickly tried to back-peddle her way out of an argument.

The show goes on by loupe fiasco and float on by modest mouse are almost exactly the same it’s crazy being 2 different genres. Give them a listen

When i heard this song Some Nights by FUN on the radio I KNEW I heard this song somewhere!
Sam
no what else sounds like Simon and Garfunkel? every Belle and Sebastian song ever.
SexyMooMooPig
OMY GOD WOW
Ais
Also from Vsauce, but I KNEW “Some Nights” sounded familiar so I’m glad to hear my suspicious validated. If modern music keeps referencing some of my favorite old artists, I am going to be very happy.

Hey Vsauce Michael here. Its nice to know that all of you actually bothered to check these out. And as always, thanks for watching.
Amber
OMFG I CAME HERE FRUM VSAUCE TOO BUT OMG SO. MANY. COMMENTS. ABOUT. VASAUCE. JUST. SAYING. Vsauce! Or Vsauce brough me here! And absolutely NOTHING about what the songs sound like. o_o
Wow! Once again we find modern music owes SO MUCH to the innovators of the past. It is very similar not exactly but it is certainly close, just not as close as Ice Ice Baby to Under Pressure. I think bands are learning they have to tweak more than one beat.. But DAMN! Fun better give credit where credit is due for the sample because this shit just spreads ignorance and it pissing me me off. Though not as bad Qwote stealing from Brenda Russell.
voicesinmyhead
Totally different harmonies and drum beats. I tend to disagree.

Vsauce, too xD
Joana J.
RFM brought me here, also Vsauce.

Some Nights was written in 2012 with We Are Young as its teaser. Please fix this asap.
Ross Reynolds

Heard Some Nights in the car last night….the Cecilia part is definitely the best part of the whole song…took me a minute or two to identify the vaguely uneasy feeling I had that I’d heard it all before….Wish S and G could get some money or credit out of this….Nothing new under the sun…
Jack Kang
Vsauce!

Decio
Some nights actually sounds like Cecillia played backwards to me… Also thanks Vsauce!

Zoe
Simon and Garfunkel are the best ever and I love Fun too! But when I heard some nights, I said to my brother: “Scott I’ve heard this before, years ago…”
and he replied with:
“Zoe, this song came out last week….”
And now I know what it is.
Thank you Vsauce! you’re awesome!
