Confession time: songs you thought were by one band, but were actually by another

uzi

New Fish

Somebody posted the song Mother by Danzig a few days ago, and that reminded me that the first few times I heard that song I thought it was by The Cult

And for years I thought this was Steely Dan

What are some songs that you, for a while anyway, thought were by one artist, then you learned it was by somebody else

 
I thought Plush by STP was by Pearl Jams. For years...I hated all grunge until 1999 or 2000 so I didn't pay much attention

Thought for sure this was the Stones for a couple years

Damn that's fucking funny. Probably more Stones sounding than many Bowie cuts because of the riff, but still Bowie's voice doesn't sound anything like Jagger.
