So the other day I was tinkering around with my drum machine, and I found a setting I really liked. So I put it on and started playing a little riff I had just made up along with it(sounded really sweet.). Then my step-dad walks in and goes, "Kiddo, play that again?", so I naturally juat play it a couple more times. Then he goes up to the C.D player, and pops in a Black Sabbath disk. He turns it to some number, and all of a sudden, I hear Tony Iomi playing the exact same thing I just was! Needless to say I wa stunned.
Have you ever just been playing around, and you actually started playing a song you've never heard before?

Sorta, i really suck at writing, i was trying to write a riff on bass, and i was changing the rythm and realized it was a green day riff.

My friend Kosta often makes up things on guitar, and the riffs always sound really similar to songs I know (and he hasn't even heard the band before).
I suck at writing songs.

It happened to me, well something similar..
see one day im just playing normally... and well I find this nice riff... I recognized it as basicly the same progression used in a lot of ska songs ( my cousins re afirmed my fears), still Its pretty neat.

That happens all the time. When you get a better ear you will even be able to pick up on other bands doing the same thing.

I haven't but I'm pretty sure I know people who write things that they think is new.

Yeah, I was listening to Green Day. The song was Jesus of Suburbia. And I noticed that one of the riff's used in the song, and it sounded strangely familiar to the riff in Children of the Grave by Sabbath. I also noticed the chorus in Longview is basically the same thing in Metallica's 'The Four Horsemen'. Stealing song's, or coincidence? confused

Yes.
It aggravates me more, however, to play something I like than realizing I'm copying a song I HAVE heard.

I usually wind up being inspired by something, so It can sound like it, but never be the same thing. I work a bit with the stuff to make sure that it's not the same as anyone else's because I have a different playing style than a lot of people.
