Question: Bands/artists which ape/lift from your favorite band/artist!?
Muse, Coldplay, Bloc Party, and many other groups have risen to global fame imitating Radiohead, especially the sound of their '90s albums!. I love those bands, especially Coldplay, so I'm not criticizing them!. It's simply!.!.!. the truth!. In fact, in 2001, MTV put the question to Thom Yorke: "How do you guys feel about the fact that bands like Travis, Coldplay and Muse are making a career sounding exactly like your records did in 1997!?" Yorke's reply: "Good luck with Kid A!." lol

Just about every solo female pop artist has taken something from Madonna!.
Lots of rappers jock Eric B & Rakim's Paid In Full album!. It has been very influential!.
Master P
Tupac
Digable Planets
Eminem
KRS-One
EDIT: I like them both very much, but come on, who has had greater success and thus likely influenced more people!? If we want to keep going back, then I'll say Cher!.
I guess with Paid In Full, I meant that all the artists I listed have directly taken from it at one point another, which is what the question was about!. Currently listening to She's So Unsual in your honor!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Meh, there are many that list Nightwish as influences, and seem to have a similar sound - symphonic metal with an operatic female!. One that actually is too close for comfort is Operatika!.
"She Is My Sin" - Nightwish
http://www!.youtube!.com/watch!?v=_t-gTxWuy!.!.!.
"Dreamworld" - Operatika
http://www!.youtube!.com/watch!?v=g0LGzIi9n!.!.!.
By the way, does ape have the same meaning as debo!? :P
EDIT:
Oh God, I just looked at the track listing of Operatika's album which is to be released next month - they have a song titled "Ice Queen"!. Within Temptation, another symphonic rock/metal band with a soprano female vocalist, became famous with their song "Ice Queen"!.
