I'm an active member of a YT channel about younger gens listening to older music. I'm looking to create a "Cars or Not" game about songs.

short version: One of the dudes is a millennial who actually knows a lot about 80s music. But he has a weak spot. Apparently he thinks a lot of non-Cars songs are by the Cars.
Specifically, he thought "And She Was" as well as "What I like About You" were by the Cars. And I genuinely get that!! I had to think about it, but it makes sense.
We're building a game where he has to hear a song (not the whole song, just a bit) and decide if it's Cars or Not.
I'm asking for non-Cars songs that might fool him.
Give it a think!
