I discuss that music will go down a path that will ruin it if the precedent of Olivia Rodrigo giving retroactive credit to Taylor Swift, Jack Antonoff, Saint Vincent, and Hayley Williams isn’t stopped. I break down:
► Why Olivia Rodrigo did not steal from Taylor Swift or Paramore
► How Robin Thicke’s Blurred Lines case versus Marvin Gaye has the potential to make the music we love to be held back by artists and ruin music.
► How theft in music should be perceived.
► Why Courtney Love is a disingenuous fraud for attacking Olivia Rodrigo
► Why Elvis Costello got it right by defending Olvia Rodrigo

I'm soooooo aggrivated seeing people be like "wow they sound so similar." There are 7 billion people on the planet and not as many chords.
As someone who is a fan of Paramore. I am so disappointed the band legally went after Olivia. There are so many chords and songs that sound so similar for a long while….samples vs original are usually transformative most of the time.
💯💯💯 all of this
I dont get why its such a big deal like everyone takes inspiration from others. With how many songs are out there no matters what song you make it will sound like at least one other song that someone else has made. No new artist will get away with never having to deal with copy writing shit. Its so fucking stupid.
I don't see anyone paying Beethoven or Mozart; or BACH who brought 12 step equal temperament as "A Thing" (Well Tempered Clavier); all music is derivative, particularly mainstream commercial music, yet in historical societies music "ownership" was communal; no-one had to pay to play Fur Elise or record or "upload"
This didn’t age well..none of these comments aged well lol. Too bad everyone is wrong and she is paying multiple artists MILLIONS in royalties so that she is isn’t sued and destroyed as an “artist” even though the only way artist and Olivia belong in the same sentence is con-artist
let’s not compare and argue over songs that sound similar, let’s mash them up
I felt this way about the Katy Perry and Robin Thicke trial.
Brutal is a cover song it’s not transformed. Similar is different than exactly the same 🤣
Hi hope you are doing well! I’d like to ask you a question, where are your credible sources for the topics you spoke about on this videos?
It would be nice to read some respectable news sources speak about the same topic without being heavily biased because from what I can infer from watching a small part of this video is that you are stating to be a music information channel hence it being named Musformation I might imagine. However you have given no citations in the description or even given a source and it quite frankly seems to be quite biased against the artists you spoke about and talked about “bullying them” which is unacceptable on any front and is quite disappointing and disgusting that anyone would ever go and promote that. No one deserves to be bullied, not Olivia, Hayley, Josh, Taylor, nor Jack.
Please put credible and verifiable information in your description because you are a Musformation channel and not a Misinformation and Biased Channel, right?
Take care!
Olivia said herself that deja vu was partially inspired on cruel summer by taylor swift specifically the bridge one. Taylor is one of her major influence in songwriting.
You should do your research before talking shit on ppl. Neither Taylor nor jack is informed that they were going to be credited . Jack said in one interview that they were shocked that they were credited on deja vu when the only one they were asked for is 1 step forward 3 step back interpolation. May be Olivia team give the credit coz of pressures on the internet .Olivia said inspiration behind the song even before the song came out and it's fine if she wants to but it's not necessary .
Other People who bashed her doesn't really know anything about the topic, but because it is trending and they want to be trendy too they will bash her or comment something bad about her🙄. Next Year if there is another breakout Artist this will happen again . Bashing them,Dragging them down, Hate them to Death. Comparing them to other artist in the Past . It's like an endless cycle😟
Trashy Boomer Husband Murderer… HA, good one
Holy crap, i come back here after a month and the lighting is so much better 🔥
I find more similar Fleabag from Yungblud to Smells Like Teen Spirit, than this two songs…
They all steal
Everyone wants justice for every crumb of anything.
Paramore deserves the credits idk what you're smoking dude it's not no bad precedent. Olivia and her team just ripped off the song. She's got xx amount of other songs she's getting credits for anyway
