Teletubby 116,941 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Lorde released her second single 'Stoned at the Nail Salon'. Some people called out Lorde for "copying" Lana Del Rey's 'Wild at Heart' with the song. A video in which a fan compares the two songs side by side has been viewed over 200,000 times. However, Lorde is likely not to blame. Both songs were produced and co-written by singer-songwriter Jack Antonoff. source    I had a hole in the pocket of my favourite coat And my love for @Juanlittlem dropped into the lining Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
swakby 4,069 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 They do sound similar but I doubt either of them is bothered by it. Â Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlastiscGuy 19,814 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 If anything, it's Jack's fault, not Lorde's PG. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
 alsemanche 87,264 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021  Also no one's "accusing" her, people are just pointing out the similarities Soft, soothing, and succulent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleepBloop 10,191 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Stoned was recorded 2 years ago, I HIGHLY doubt this was intentional. Like, be realistic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomsches 16,954 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 OMG 2 bars have the same melody?? She totally copied Lana, because nobody has ever used this melody before.  3 minutes ago, Teletubby said: However, Lorde is likely not to blame. Both songs were produced and co-written by singer-songwriter Jack Antonoff. Why wouldn't SHE be to blame? She wrote and composed the song, not Antonoff. He only produced it.

Jack is often heavily involved in the song creation process. Stoned was made way before COCC came out, its not like she heard the album when it released and rushed to copy it with the exact same producer. He more than likely just recycled the melody from one to the other. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

COOOK 76,405 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Was there some livestream or something, of both song's creative process that I missed? Looks like everybody seems to clock who did exactly what... 👀 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bio 23,538 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 It's time to give Antonoff a break. All of his last produced albums sound the same. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lona Delery 7,177 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 it sounds similar but its deffo not a copy  same producer using a guitar w/ a very distinct sound and there you go Sometimes it feels like I've got a war in my mind, I wanna get off but I keep riding the ride Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wet Fire 5,678 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 If you all obsessively stick to the same producer for album after album, how can you expect the producer to sound fresh evefy time in every song  I mean see, Mark Ronson also gave us some iconic songs. Rehab, Uptown Funk and Shallow. But these three are so different. Mark took the time to reinvent himself. I don't think Jack is getting the space to reinvent himself that much.

Cameltoe Chariot 11,807 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 This is twice now, Solar Power is almost identical to a track off of St Vincent's new album too For me the biggest gag is that this would've never even happened if Lorde hadn't moved so far away from her signature sound and gone for this SoCal dreamy late 60s acoustic vibe instead. So now not only has she disappointed most casual listeners - she's also starting to sound like everyone else as well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
