Allan 3,274 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I can't find many similarities besides the bass synth and chorus build-up, and even if the guy literally listened to Applause and ripped it off, it's still a totally different song. Zedd's Stay The Night verses' melody is the similar to "AR-TP-OP" in Applause too, but things like this happen and the producers don't even notice.

Robotboy 1,700 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0PvggdjkKE nice try but no. Remember that you are unique. Like everyone else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Essence 148 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Using the same synth does not a copy make. The DWUW intro that slays everyone used the same synth as some random other song somebody discovered (er, that's so vague but I can't remember the name of it, it was kind of a big deal for a while if you remember), but nobody here believed that was a copy. You can't have it both ways. This isn't at all worth getting worked up about. It's actually kind of a good song. https://soundcloud.com/djeffendi/chris-lake-vs-lady-gaga-helium It's more than just the normal build up, it's the exact same timing and everything.

amazinglyjon 260 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Same key and similar bass lines/synths. I can see the similarities... but Applause is still the better song Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad 32 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I don't think they're THAT similar. This song is a bop tho Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arturo 40,746 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Yes they sound similar. But I'm sure this was unintentional. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoshLife 16,896 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 https://soundcloud.com/djeffendi/chris-lake-vs-lady-gaga-helium It's more than just the normal build up, it's the exact same timing and everything. oh my god you guys seriously, stop trying to have this debate with me. I've listened to the songs. They don't sound that much alike. You're like the Madonna stans right now. Take a page out of Slayra's book, recognize that similarities exist but that it's not a big deal, and move on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anomaly 122 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 You're not the only one. But I think we're the only ones You're absolutely right, though. But get ready to be quoted like five times telling you you're wrong It's true though. Just because the beat of a song progresses similarly to another song (which most pop/radio songs do) doesn't make them a rip-off of each other. Like you said, "it's textbook."

Essence 148 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 nice try but no. Same chord progression, similar synths, similar melodies, I mean Born This Way obviously is better and more modern but they are indeed VERY VERY similar. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrismugler 944 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 The synths are similar but it's not a Rip-off B.B.A. / Music Lover / Human. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
