I think that this will be less common as Lana’s artistry progresses as she seems to delve more into less conventional melodic structures, and BoZ seems to indicate this about TUOB as well! Comparisons will always be drawn, but I do think Lana’s headed toward a more distinct melodic sound with her next record Chord progressions are always reused-there’s clear similarities between blue jeans and wicked game but it’s clearly not a rip off-it’s about melody and the style of the song more than anything but yes-let’s see what ocean brings 🙏 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fingertips 72,118 Posted December 28, 2022 I don't think Get Free was "sue-worthy" per say, but besides Old Money, its the most glaringly obvious example in her entire catalog. I cannot listen to that song without thinking about Creep. MAC is a close third. 1 Quote "You can't be a muse and be happy, too.

cherrytropico 10,664 Posted December 28, 2022 6 minutes ago, evalionisameme said: It’s interesting you mention last Christmas because I cannot hear one similarity between creep and get free-different genres, different vocal styles, different pace but I hear last Christmas in get free one hundred percent. the same chord progression is used in this part but that’s why i never got the comparison because the rest of get free is SO different, i mean one song is rock the other is like dream pop/folk. the overall instrumental and melody just sound completely different, i never understood why she got sued for it. yes the chord progression/“weirdo” & “manifesto” melody in the chorus is the same but that’s literally it…i’ve listened to both songs so many times and just never heard what people were talking about. creep is such an iconic popular song, it’s natural for music that comes after it to sound a bit similar 11 Quote we’re gonna party like it’s 1949 ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀ :¨ ·.· ¨: ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀ `· . ꔫ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The first two chords are the same though! 5 Quote “…and this is all I looked for all my life – to be able to give of my love, my spontaneous joy, unreservedly, with no fear of…misuse, betrayal.” Sylvia Plath Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
