Probably thousands of people have had the idle thought "Hey those songs sound similar" but leave it to Kid Rock to make millions from it

What pisses me off about it is it *sounds like* an interesting take on Sweet Home Alabama if you don't know Werewolves of London exists

It'd still be a shitty lazy ass way to write a song but at least you'd be like "Oh he played the piano over it and sang a different tune"

BUT HE DIDN'T! The piano is a sample from Werewolves of London and his vocals are derived from the tune of that song

And he doesn't acknowledge Warren Zevon at all! NOTHING about that song is original

His "country rock" phase is such a marketing sham I honestly don't believe he lost his virginity to Sweet Home Alabama

He was still the white boy into hip-hop at the time, it was probably Bust-a-Move or something
