Remember all those times Kylie Jenner has channeled Kim Kardashian?

Well...

The music video for Tyga's "Stimulated," which doubled as an official confirmation that he and Kylie are a couple-couple upon its release Monday, couldn't help but remind us of another PDA-packed music video collaboration in the fam, namely Kanye West's much-parodied "Bound 2" co-starring then-fiancée Kim.

While "Bound 2" had its own inimitable charms, there are striking similarities between the two: Both open with sweeping panoramic views, both feature a rapper and his Keeping Up With the Kardashians-star significant other packing on the PDA, both contain one memorable moment after another and each song is a veritable raunchfest.

There is one major difference, however: Kimye's antics are so suggestive as to be in on the joke, while Tyga and Kylie, despite the NC-17 lyrics bumping in the background, are charmingly tender with one another, their behavior G-rated in comparison to the older couple's let's-shock-the-world motorcycle ride.

But still, so many similarities! Here are seven times Kylie and Tyga in "Stimulated" were tween-friendly Kimye in "Bound 2":
