And if the lead singer of Jet is sounding like Paul McCartney, maybe that's because they grew up on that music, "But then that's what happens if the first album you ever heard was 'Abbey Road.'" I'm not denying they sound similar to Beatles, that's why I said they have an influence. This is nothing new, tons of bands do it, people are influenced by the music they grow up on and listen to.

But that's my whole arguement. Singing. The singer sings like Paul McCartney. I wasn't talking about their lyrics at all.

I didn't ask for a list of 100+ Beatles tracks, I asked for a few more examples because I myself did not see any stricking similarities in terms of sound or lyrical significance.

Sucks, because it's still rather obvious.

I asked who is into them, not who thinks they're a crappy band and are "ripping off" other people's work.

Fair enough. I skipped your first post, either way. I just felt like saying we had a thread about it before, and most agreed they sucked. So in a way it kind of addresses your question, but on a slightly different scale. Where as, you asked who's into them, expecting maybe somebody to like them. I flat out said nobody. At least you know who is and isn't into them, though.
