This video had more music playing in its twenty minutes than MTV has played in the past twenty years.

The John Fogerty getting sued for plagiarizing himself is one of my favorite musical tidbits.

The funniest thing about the Coldplay case is that they found a song with that same little melody dating back to the 1800âs which just makes all the people who tried to sue them look like idiots. Like thereâs only so many notes on the piano and that melody has three.

The worst part about the Bitter Sweet Symphony case was that the Stones were dragged in the press over it even though they had no control. That part of their catalog was controlled by Klein & they had no part in the lawsuit but everyone accused Mick & Keith of being heartless, greedy bastards over the whole thing. In the last few years, they got control back on those songs & restored the Verve's royalties to 100% for it. They were actually fans of the song & hated what Klein did to them.
On the Bridges to Babylon album, after the Stones cut Anybody Seen My Baby, someone pointed out that it sounded like K.D. Lang's Constant Craving. Mick couldn't say for certain he never heard Lang's song so they gave her a writing credit to be safe. They released it as a single on the album so Lang probably made out nicely without having to lift a finger. They've always been good about giving credit to their inspirations & influences & have been good to young upcoming bands.

You all going to forget that Chuck Barry straight stole âJohnny B Goodâ from a high schooler named Calvin Klein. And he stole it at a prom from what I hear. đ¤

Given his name, it's ironic that Tom Petty seemed to be the least petty of artists.

One thing I learned in theory class in college, is that the longer artists record music, the less unique songs will be produced. There's only so many progressions and melodies in western music, that there's bound to be some artistical overlaps.

Jethro Tull's "We Used To Know" became The Eagles mega hit Hotel California.
Ian Anderson gave them a nod with a Well Done Boys without even a thank you.

How could you forget Rick James âSuper Freakâ vs MC Hammer âU Canât Touch this?!â Rick James had to sue him.

Robert Plant admitted "As musicians, we're all beggars and thieves". Their are only so many chord progressions that can be original in totality.

There was one song that wasnât included on this list that I had to mention, Iâm a massive fan of Def Leppard and their most popular song is by far Pour Some Sugar On Me, but my brother is a bit of a One Direction fan so I came across the song Midnight Memories and I thought he was listening to Pour Some Sugar On Me, I was shocked and looked up if there was any tension between the two groups or if One Direction was inspired by their song, and I found out Def Leppard sent lawyers to see if One Direction should be sued for the similarities between the two songs, but they never got anywhere and One Direction got off easy, in my opinion, even if One Direction didnât directly copy the song, they shouldâve given them some credit after hearing similarities afterwards

When I write songs, I often notice other songs creep in. It is really difficult to be truly original.

One of Yoko Ono's songs was alleged to be a copy of the Emergency Broadcast tone.

Anyone remember an interview with Vanilla Ice explaining that the difference between "Pressure" and "Ice, Ice Baby" is that little "ding" in his song? I was thinking "Really dude? You're going to run with that"? Apparently he did.

One of my favorites is the argument over "Halo" by BeyoncĂŠ vs. "I'm Already Gone" by Kelly Clarkson. The thing is, they were both written by Ryan Tedder of One Republic, who used the same riff on "Secrets." And here's the punchline: they're all just Pachelbel's "Canon" in D.

Itâs a blurred line between âinfluenced byâ and âcopied fromâ âŚâŚ
I love Zeppelin but a lot of their early stuff was definitely influenced by earlier 20âs / 30âs blues ie Muddy Waters
Similarly, Oasis were definitely influenced tremendously by The Beatles

When your song has 4 cords, you are taking a huge chance of a copyright lawsuit.

I can't even fathom the number of times in my life I heard an intro on the radio, exclaimed, "I love this song!", only to find out it was a totally different song.

If you think about it,
writing original material
has got to be very difficult
to accomplish in a business
with already a million
other artists out there.
Kudos to those who
had abundant, original ideas.
