every thing has to be a problem. No one can just exist and enjoy something.

They sound so much alike that everytime I heard Brave on the radio, I thought...Katy's voice has gotten a hundred times better...then I realized it was Brave. Lol 

Of course, there is also California Gurls and Tik Tok...and that Christian song that sounded like Darkhorse. Katy is just full of these "copykat" songs. Lol   

California Gurls and Tik Tok were musically composed and produced by the same producer. And the beat that Dark Horse and  Joyful Noise share is something which is heavily used in the trap genre.

but I said Roar was written, recorded and produced before Brave was RELEASED, not before it was written, recorded or produced. 

It's not the only example. Tik Tok and Joyful Noise by Flame sounded too familiar. JN and DH even have the same BPM...

I've been listening to 'Wildest Dreams' and thinking that Taylor sounds vocally similar to another pop vocalist woman who I couldn't pin down in my head... and then I just found this article:

"Taylor does a less convincing impression of pop's other reigning queen of darkness, LDR. One of 1989's weakest tracks is "Wildest Dreams," which sounds like it was strung together from a bunch of phrases sputtered out by a Lana Del Rey Twitter bot ("Say you'll remember me / Standing in a nice dress / Staring at the sunset, babe / Red lips and rosy cheeks"). Tay can't quite pull off Lana Del Swift (I swear I can even hear her ever so subtly attempting to say it like "noice dress," WELCOME TO NEW YORK, BABY) but whether or not they fall flat, these influences are revealing. Lana and Lorde were both unknown insurgents when Taylor's last blockbuster Red was released, so it's interesting that part of the blueprint for making a Too Big to Fail Pop Album in 2014 includes the instructions "make sure there are songs on there that sound like Lana Del Rey and Lorde." Taylor can't channel either artist's sense of macabre, but ultimately, I see that as a good thing: It leaves room for her own signature."
