Word for word from wiki on the song "Creep"-

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creep_(Radiohead_song)

 

​"Creep" shares a chord progression and melody "The Air that I Breathe" a 1972 song recorded by the Hollies.

​The songs writers Albert Hammond and Mike Hazelwood sued and received co-writing credits and a percentage of the songs royalties.

 

​According to Hammond, "Radiohead agreed that they actually had taken it...Because they were honest they weren't sued to the point

​of saying We want the whole thing'. So we ended up just getting a little piece of it

The similarity is obvious. I noticed as soon as I heard it for the first time, but still I hope she wins the case because they're just too greedy.

I never liked "Creep" but I'm not a fan of "Get Free", either (the fact that it sounds like Radiohead's song doesn't help). I love "The Air That I Breath", though.

There is only ONE Creep. Sorry fatties but its the truth.

ladies, you know what to do

[Slumdog 817]

I remember a few years ago a band let a youtuber put their own music in her videos because they were friends but the record label (I think) tried to sue her anyway. So I don't know if you can blame this entirely on the band.

radiorats need to take several seats and accept lana del russy as their lorde and savior

[Coney Island King 26,003]

Disgusting rats everywhere. Help me lipsters xxxxxxx

Since everyone's so worried about chord progressions and intellectual property, Lana should be suing Halsey for New Americana and Strange Love

why strange love?

[Yosemite 23,786]

I don't want that to happen and I'm positive it won't...but if it does maybe there'll be room for Yosemite on the future releases 

Fuck you just read my mind

[loleetah 4,084]

why strange love?

The choruses of Born To Die and Strange Love have extremely similar melodies

I'm really worried seeing people saying stuff like "radiohead who" or "nobody knows them"... I mean, wtf guys you fucking know shitty artists like Halsey and Melanie Martinez, how don't you guys know one of the biggest/most famous alternatives bands?

Part of the people that say they don't know them are just "joking" because they're mad about this whole situation.... 

But there's a great amount of people that doesn't know them. Or just knows 'Creep' since it is their most famous song.

 

That said... nobody knows them, radiohead who?

Because Radiohead debuted about 10 years before most Lana fans were even born. It's not like they've remained massively mainstream throughout the 2000s/10s. I'll admit I only really knew Creep and Karma Police before this whole drama, and that's purely down to my parents liking them and playing them sometimes.
