paps, according to my friend, nasa credits ng album ng OAL ang chandeliers pero dont know if its true. . can anyone verify?

More than being a mere sample, the chorus on the original version of "S2pid Luv" is a word-for-word rendition of Evergreen's first four lines.

They subsequently released a 'new' version of "S2pid Luv", this time with a rewritten chorus, apparently after rapper Andrew E.'s Dongalo Wreckords (Salbakuta's label) was threatened with a lawsuit over the unauthorized use of Streisand's song.

All have the exact same melody, rhythm and beat. But is anyone complaining?

these are public domain, royalty free songs.... so go ahead make an album using these songs and you don't have to pay royalties

if I'm not mistaken, also Mozart and other classical music are free too.

actually,

Orange and Lemons were very uninspired when they wrote Pinoy Ako... so they just copied Chandeliers.

Sobrang rip-off. napanuod ko sa kontrobersyal the other night kaya dinownload ko yung chandeliers. Nung na-play ko na yun, puede ko na ngang kantahin yung lyrics ng PINOY AKO and also do the dance.

Oh well hindi rin naman ako nagagandahan dun sa "pinoy ako" single nila. Mas type ko parin noypi by bamboo.

OT: Funny yung parody na ginawa ng Parokya - "The Ordertaker" which they took from System of A Down's Toxicity. Pakinggan niyo!

the royalty is not the issue, i think. its the denial that they copied it. on the other hand, pwede naman makagawa ng song na similar sa isa pang song without actually hearing the original.

i heard nga that OnL are going to come out with an updated release of their second album with the PBB theme song and another new song. sabi ata nila they will credit The Care daw. pero as to how they will give credit to The Care is another thing. will they say "inspired by The Care's 'Chandeliers'" or "copied from The Care's..." hmmm abangan.

btw, guys the name of the band is The Care, not The Cares. yun lang po.
