Finding songs that sounds similar to a particular song?

WhiteLightWhiteCity [Edit] [Delete] 13:17, 20 June '13

Last night I walked home from Hyde Park, a leisurely summer evening stroll. When I got home I had an intense craving to listen to Lover's Spit by Broken Social Scene, lying on the couch with the windows open to the dusky sky outside at about 9:30pm.

Which was great, but after 6 minutes it was over and I really just wanted to continue being in that moment. I didn't want to just play that song repeatedly though, or even listen to that album. I wanted songs by other artists in a similar vein, but had a bit of a brain freeze at the time.

Are there any services for finding `similar songs`? I remember something about itunes genius doing something like this. Does it work? Is there anything else?
