Over here in Croatia and other ex-YU countries, plagiarism isn't a rare phenomenon among popular musicians. Here are some songs that IMHO sound suspicously close to certain hard rock and metal songs. Can you guys recognize from which songs where (parts of) these songs stolen?

If any of those were "stolen" they have me totally fooled.

Well that first one wasn't stolen because I originally posted a wrong song, but I fixed it now. There's some obvious plagiarism of Maiden, Bruce Dickinson, Priest, Van Halen and Quiet Riot, respectively, among these songs.

The only thing I picked up on, besides how horrible they all are, was a similarity to Van Halen's "Jump."

Two of the songs I posted are Jump rip-offs actually.
The others are Jelly Roll, Cum On Feel the Noize, Prowler, Touch of Evil, Lord of the Flies and Navigate the Seas of the Sun.
