SR/TJ songs being recycled
 

Have you heard any songs that once you heard it...
:hmph:"Hmmm, I must have heard it before"...
:whacko: "No i didn't, but why it sounds so familiar"...
:blink: "Can't it be copying from(or borrowing ideas from or sounding similar to) a song of SR/TJ?!"...
:o "Oh! It is____!"

Here is my example:

Aiko - Shiawase

I do not think Aiko intentionally copied from Ringo, but it at least made me think in the way I mentioned above starting from 1:30, and "Oh! It is Suberidai - One of my favourties!"

I don't know, I've heard this song many times and I never once felt that it sounded like a Ringo song.

its definitely plagiarism I can totally hear it from 1;30 from what you said. However, it suberdai even released? i dont think it was released officially.

Your reply is so fast @_@
I've heard it two or three times before, but I just had that feeling last time I heard it again.
You can try to hear it again and compare it with Suberidai.

if one or two lines sounds familiar then its okay, maybe coincidence, but we are talking about the whole chorus here. lolz

It was released in the revised version of Konfukuron: http://www.emimusic.jp/vmc/artist/do.../toct22011.php
(すべりだい = Suberidai)

I don't know, I guess they sound somewhat similar, but I couldn't consider it plagiarism.

Ha, I'm always surprised for some reason that Aiko is still around... I remember really liking some of her songs from her first two albums, but then I completely forget about her...

Hmmmm... I don't find any similarities... I love both songs, though.

Actually, I went back to compare them and they sound a little similar. But, yea, I wouldn't call it plagiarism either since the main similarity is just the flow of the chorus. But, I don't really know what you can really call plagiarism in music, unless its like unauthorized sampling or something like that.

Nice feel-good pop song!
The first line of the chorus totally sounds like Suberidai, and the whole song has the feel of Marunouchi Sadistic. Sounds like something a younger Ringo would sing.
I wouldn't call it plagiarism though. The chord progression is kinda different. And many songs sound like this anyway.
