Geez. It’s not funny when it’s homage, people.
True. But the funny part here is that they actually *do* look like them. It’s not just that the cover is similar. Look at the guy to the right (Dorfmeister). Spitting image of Garfunkel.
yea, if you’re missing an eye…
All white people look the same to me.
LOL
LOL I guess we are kinda like sheep huh buddy!
That was a good one.
Cheers!
your a homage
You’re* an* homage.
If “your” going to make fun of somebody, at least use correct grammar.
Wow..people complain when it’s stock footage and when it’s an homage… can’t win on this board any more.
My favorite one over the last six months or so is the one from PunchOut.
Yes, everyone complains, since it’s supposed to be unintentional look-a-likes. Not the same image used over or an image that was intentionally done to look the same as another one.
And yes, it’s getting boring. Very very boring. As in, not funny anymore. Not even amusing. More like.. snore.
Sez you. I think it’s interesting that people would rather their artwork look like something else than come up with something original.
Interesting, maybe.
Appropriate for this site, no.
People complain about stock footage because “this model totally looks like him/herself” isn’t entertaining.
They complain about homages because, while they might be interesting, they’re rarely funny.
No…no one wins when you try to label something a “look-alike” if it’s *intended* to look like something else.
Notice the title of the page–>Look-Alikes.
I’m so done with this damned blog.
See ya…
Out! Damn’ed Blog!
Lady Macbeth would have made a great maid.
No she wouldn’t: she never could get that spot out.
Yes she could, she just couldn’t wash her hands well enough. That just sounds like a bad case of OCD, and as EVERYONE knows, OCD sufferers make the BEST housekeepers.
They don’t look-alike?
I didn’t say they didn’t look alike. I said it wasn’t funny.
Why do these discussions always rely on intentions of the creator? The whole point of a reference being made is maybe not fun for anyone, but it offers a bit of cleverness in making crosspoints in pop-culture. Thus it’s more about cleverness than shallow fun like “you’re mother looks like animal x”.
This is an homage, I think. Kruder & Dorfmeister seem to be making a tribute to Simon & Garfunkel, and they did it on purpose.
I think people are now deliberately posting obvious homages just to piss off the folks who actually *understand* the idea behind this site.
I think you’re right. They know it irritates people when they act like dumbshits, so they act like dumbshits just to irritate people.
Well, I’ve decided I won’t be irritated, so there goes their fun, eh? They’re just dumbshits for no reason, I guess.
So let me get this straight… Copying someone else’s work is now an “Homage”?
Where I come from it’s called a “Blatant RIP OFF” and isn’t considered high praise but a cheap copy of someone else’s concept, idea, and/or work.
Actually I find it interesting, and I think that the producers hope some brainless twit will subconsciously recall the enjoyment they got from the S&G album, creating a positive feeling towards this one and subsequent purchase.
And, speaking as a B.T., I think they are right.
Whatever happened to Garfunkel?
He was in a recent episode of Flight of The Concords, for one.
Actually, in this case, yes. Homage means ‘to do it like it was done before’. This day and age, they can’t really get the concept of doing something as an homage in the proper definition.
Where you come from, do they call shit “chocolate”?
Just wondering.
Have you ever heard the saying, “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery”?
I guess being a big, fat copycat is a GOOD thing nowadays… As if “remaking” something into something which is, at best, a pale remake and at most a scathing burn of something is a good idea too.
This entire generation, nay maybe even 99% of humanity within the last two generations, are hollowed-out Ritalin Rejects who can’t come up with anything original, soulful, or innovative on their own if their lives depended on it.
If everyone gets a trophy for “participating” nobody experiences the true joy of being truly excellent or feel the pain of losing so deeply that they reinvent themselves, and as such everyone becomes a shallow joke of what they could have been had they been allowed to feel things other than numb.
Hi there, you seem to be confused about what an homage is. It is not blatantly ripping off someone else’s work, but is rather a way to show respect to a person, most noticeably: as an image or work which was made in the style of the original to show where the artist’s influence comes from.
This particular cover can be considered ‘tip-of-the-hat’ toward f Simon & Garfunkel’s music and a statement on Kruder & Dorfmeisters perception of their own music, style and their claim for their own standing in modern popular music as a timeless classic duo. Whether they are or not is another thing completely, but this isn’t ripping them off, it’s acknowledging them.
And, HI stereotype of my generation! I appreciate that you think my peers and I are “hollowed out Ritalin Rejects who can’t come up with anything original, soulful, or innovative on their own if their lives depended on it” but, I assure you, I never took Ritalin.
Heeeeyyy….. quick question…. what did you ever innovate and/or create?
I mean, personally? I wouldn’t rip on two entire generations (ok, 99% of two whole generations) unless I was a critically acclaimed, Nobe Prize-winning, artist (of some kind); otherwise I’d just be a stubborn fool who refuses to accept that my own music (for example) isn’t the only music worth my merit. Also? It would make me sound like a pretentious asshole.
It’s funny because the second paragraph is paraphrased from Wikipedia.
Not that I don’t agree.
I realize it’s just a head shot but they don’t seem fat to me.
Usually, Again, homage images are done as a tribute, not a ripoff. They also tend to have the original creator’s permission.
What the heck is wrong with pointing out an homage or a use of stock images? Yes, it’s funnier to see unintentional similarities, but I still think it’s interesting to see these other things. I had never heard of Kruder and Dorfmeister. So, it’s interesting to see this.
So, y’all shut up. It’s not the blog that’s getting boring. It’s the comments that totally look alike.
The point is I want the funny when I come here – if I want the insight I’ll go somewhere else.
Homages and stock photos being unintentionally used twice (UNLESS one is for the U.N.C.F. and the other for David Duke’s campaign sign) just aren’t FUCKING FUNNY.
“This is an homage, I think. Kruder & Dorfmeister seem to be making a tribute to Simon & Garfunkel, and they did it on purpose.”
Do you think that you really need to point this out to people?
Apparently so – did you read Again’s comment? By the way- who are Kruder and Dorfmeister? I guess I’m off to Wikipedia to look them up, and in case you were wondering the answer is yes, I am old.
Can we add a new category for the Fail Blog for things like this?
Geez, people, chill. Even the obvious ones are interesting and lead to exploration. As in, I have to go look up those other guys whose names I can’t pronounce.
hey, Clueless, yes the majority [of you],

the website is totally looks like, no matter if homage fun or stock, it doesn’t matter, ‘looks like’ is what matters and The point,
The point is not, ‘i got here first’ or let’s trash the post,
why comment if you got nothing worthwhile to say except the same thing you commented for the previous picture, and the one before that etc, ad nauseam,
i like this pic it is very lookalike, whether intentional or not does not matter, right.
carry on.
My opinion is that this blog is called, “One thing looks like another thing”. it’s not called “One thing looks accidentally like another thing”, or “One thing is a rip-off of another thing, but is not a homage or two people using stock footage”.
It’s also not, “One thing looks like another, and that is hilarious”.
So I don’t see anything wrong with posting lots of different things … we won’t all like everything, right?
I actually don’t mind homages.
But stock photos really don’t belong here, because instead of “one thing looks like another thing,” it’s “one thing looks like itself.”
Enough with the homages. Anyway, this site is now dropped from my bookmarks.
Poor baby… We don’t need you here anyways. Good riddance.
Agreed. Effin trolls, go back to your LOLcats.
I read the website just to see you all fight with each other, it’s hilarious!
Age is such a double-edged sword. Who the heck are Kruder and Dorfmeister? And why should I care (“why should I care…out of my brain on the 5:15″)
to those of you that ‘don’t get it’
How funny would it be if somebody put one up that said Val Kilmer TLL Jim Morrison in the movie “The Doors”? Or, Clint Eastwood as “Dirty Harry” TLL Clint Eastwod in “The Outlaw Josey Wales?”
Yeah, not funny. Just like the girl in stock photo A TLL the girl in stock photo B.
Should be another site dedicated to “just didn’t care enough to be original / homage.” Or, Intentional Unoriginal dot com.
don’t get it; don’t want it; getting along very nicely without it. And, yes, have heard it all before.
I’m just curious if it says in the rules of this site that homages (ie: something that TOTALLY LOOKS LIKE something else, albeit purposefully) aren’t allowed.
This site has rules?
I didn’t know who Kruder & Dorfmeister are, either.
I RTFA — I did a search and found their webpage is down, but I found a few places where one can listen to their recordings.
Making an album cover in which they look like Simon & Garfunkel is the only way anybody is ever going to confuse the two. Give me Paul and Art, any day of the week.
Yep, I’m old — this time I’m even proud of it.
Yep. K&D are out on the techno/trance end of the musical spectrum, quite far from S&G, which gives their homage an extra added dose of irony. OK, then, how many of you have both in your music collection? Raise your hands high…
Raising hand
ITYM “from the dub end of the musical spectrum”.
And who are those Simon & Garfunkel geezers, anyway?
np: Phantom Ghost – The Charge Of A Light Brigade (Thrown Out Of Drama School)
i have full discography of the two bands up there. and hell, i love these guys. all of them.
They don’t look alike. Only the lighting & angles are the same.
photoshopped
Simon was the genius, Garfunkle was the name…Can I tell the right from the left….WHO CARES!
Oh…and they are not conjoined twins at the head….just in photoshop!….
yeh, but can they sing as well?
Obvious fail.
It’s “spit and image” – not spitting image.
nooo!
OMG GARFUNKEL IS IMMORTAL!!!!!!!
This is just sad. Somebody doesn’t know who Simon and Garfunkel are… whoever said Simon was the genius and Garfunkel was the name is correct. Paul Simon is a true musical mastermind. Art Garfunkel supplied some really lovely harmonies with his tenor voice, but otherwise isn’t anything special. All that aside, yes- this is an homage. Who cares? It’s a nice tribute to the great Simon and Garfunkel.
