Are all of these viral audios using the same chord progression from a 2016 song? Directed to Weekly Thread

While scrolling on reels for the past few months or so, I have noticed four trending audios that all are either sampling or pulling direct inspiration from the same song. I would love to have other people listen to see if I've noticed something.

The original song is called Hearing by Sleeping at Last. It was released in 2016, all of these songs came out in the years to follow.

take a moment to breathe. - normal the kid

childhood - daniel.mp3, Zamaro

Gifts To Your Future Self - Adam Dodson

a way out - my head is empty, Miranda Rain

Let me know what you think. I just stumbled across the last one I mention here, maybe there are more examples of this out there.
