Morphine Prince 105,247 Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 I just realized that the beat in Closer by The Chainsmokers sounds almost exactly like Suzanne Vega's "Tom's Diner" Have they credited her? Does anyone else think so? Or am I reaching? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

uo111 5,254 Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 I refuse to listen to closer enough to know if these songs are actually similar. 53 minutes ago, Bio said: They recently had to add the name of the writers of this song because they stole the piano melody Omg Closer is so groundbreaking that it influenced songs that came before it.
