In the instrumental part of The Cure "Prayers for rain" there is a chord sequence that sounds like the chords for Alphaville "Dance with me".

"Sheer Heart Attack" starts off with a few verses that were copied from the beginning of The Beatles' "I Saw Her Standing There.".The lead synth melody is also similar to Proto Man's theme from Mega Man 3. The chorus of "Oh Yes You're There, Everyday" is suspiciously similar to the Dungeon Theme from The Legend of Zelda(though that itself was inspired by Deep Purple's "April")." Lune de fiel " is noted to be similar to Tony Montana's theme from Scarface (1983).Even more noticeable: compare "Midnight City" to The Chainsmokers' " Paris ", as well as Mike Posner's " Looks Like Sex ". Midnight City was released in 2011, while Sleepwalking was released in 2013.

Some people will note similarities in the overall structures of "Midnight City" and The Chain Gang of 1974's "Sleepwalking".And the chorus lyrics on "Angel" are clearly inspired by "Angel of the Morning" by Merrilee Rush. Miller is credited as a composer on "Angel". Shaggy's "Angel" also sounds suspiciously similar to Steve Miller Band "The Joker.
