Standing vs Dig In - Lenny Kravitz
Another Reason To Believe vs Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker) - The Rolling Stones (verses)
(taken from Supersonic's thread)

Do you think this could be a reason? Besides this era's demos, other "too inspired by already published" songs had the same destiny, check Put the boy back in cowboy (Fat bottomed girls)...
