I'm putting together a radio documentary on the influence of the White Album on modern pop music, and wanted some evidence of its continuing musical legacy. Which songs have been directly or indirectly influenced by those on the white album. For instance: radiohead's karma police borrows a piano flourish from sexy sadie, while paranoid android is very similar to happiness is a warm gun. Many people quote helter skelter as the first "metal" song, and ob-la-di ob-la-da as the first mainstream ska song. What other similar examples are there?

I know the band Jet has a song that sounds like it could be a cousin of Sexy Sadie. (Is it possible for a song to have a cousin?) Anyway, it's called Look What You've Done.
By the way, you should listen to The Beatles Legacy Station at this website: http://us.rd.yahoo.com/launch/nav/yahoo/*http://mu...
many human beings do in contrast to Yoko. may be the real reason is she is concept to break up Lennon's marriage to his first spouse. with or devoid of Yoko, Lennon replaced right into a social activist. it is not that undesirable now that he has 2 sons surviving him. His first son is likewise making a song and persevering with what he enjoyed to do.
Cant name specifics as most bands are unwilling to admit that any certain song is heavily influenced by another one song or album, however i know Oasis have been infuenced massively by the white album.
