Except for not telling us what your data are and what you mean by 
"totally different"?

One model has a random interaction between Subj and Rsp, the other does 
not. This may make a difference, unless the interaction term is aliased 
with the residual error.

If your data are unbalanced, aov is not guaranteed to give meaningful 
results.
