What were the originals

I know this has been done before, but which DDr songs are replicas of the real thing. I know Long Train Running was originally by the Doobie Brothers, Its Raining Men was a radio hit, and There Youll Be was originally sung by Faith Hill in the Pearl Harbor soundtrack. What are some others.

Whoops, forgot to add something else. If you have any of the Jock Jams CDs you can find a whole ton of songs on them.

The Extreme version of We Will Rock You is a direct ripoff (yah down to the screams and stuff) of Five's version of We Will Rock You which is just a remake of Queen's We Will Rock You.

Little Bitch sounds alot like that song from the Vodafone advert... you know the one... ohoh Dandy Warhols - Bohemian Like You. but Little Bitch came out way before that...

Barbie Young isn't really the lead singer of Aqua is she? I know they sound alot alike but so does Jenny Rom..

Little ***** is by The Specials. I've overheard it in a movie.

Swing It has samples from Tequila from The Champs.

Don't Clock Me's beat is from some 70s-80s song, but I don't know the title.

My Baby Mama might be sampled from something..

Twilight Zone is originally by 2Unlimited. Besides the lyrics, Twilight Zone doesn't have anything to do with the TV series of the same name.

-Look At Us by, of course, Sarina Paris.
-I've also heard a full version of Drifting Away on CD called "Best of Trance Vol. 3" or something like that. Also by Lange feat. Skye.
-Speed Over Beethoven is Fur Elise(EVERYONE should know this

)
-So Fabulous, So Fierce is a remake of a song..I just don't know the original name. I heard it on the radio once, the singers were saying "Awww freak out", but no "So fabulous, so fierce".
-And then, all Captain Jack's songs.

More Than I Needed To Know sounds like a song that would be made in the US, but then I've never heard of an artist named "Scooch". Too bad it didn't make it to Extreme...or DDRMAX2 JP for that matter.

He didn't mean that was her real name.

It's her artist name, like Eminem is Whatever Eminem's Real Name's artist name.

So you mean she actually goes by the alias Barbie Young and does covers for DDR? Weird...
