Do you ever notice soundalike songs or musicians? I wouldn’t say this happens to me all that often, but recently, I’ve been struck by a soundalike playing on my radio. The pop stations (and a commercial – I think for Sirius radio) are playing a song by Sara Bareilles called, “Love Song.” I really like it – it’s catchy, and I like acoustic music and the singer/songwriter vibe. Plus, I’m a sucker for the piano.

A few days ago I heard a song on the contemporary Christian station called, “I’m Letting Go” by Francesca Battistelli. First of all, I just like the song. The words are meaningful to me. But second of all, Wow! It sounds soooo much like “Love Song!”

Or maybe it’s just me. Take a listen. Let me know what you think.

Sara Bareilles – listen here.
Francesca Battistelli – listen here.

Another soundalike for you country music fans (are you out there? anyone? Bueller?): Rodney Carrington sounds just like Tim McGraw to me. Just like him! When I hear a new song by Rodney, I always, always think it’s Tim!

Have you heard any soundalikes lately?
