You know, I’ve read a few other posts about this issue.. and, people delve into the legalities.. and, “if you don’t know the law, you can’t comment”...
Well, I call “bullshit” on that. This is more like the SCOTUS definition of ‘obscenity’... I know it, when I see it.. or, rather, hear it.
IF the law says THIS is plagiarism? Then, the law is effed up. It’s not. It’s not even close. Any musician with an ear for music and the ability to count time can tell it’s not the same.
