Namie is being accused of plagiarizing G-Dragon's song "Heartbreaker"... Heartbreaker hardly sounds like S!S!W!D!, where is this coming from?... And what's funny is that G-Dragon was accused of plagiarizing Flo-Rida's song "Right Round", so wouldn't it be like Namie copying Flo-Rida?... Stupid netizens...


Sit!Stay!Wait!Down!


Heartbreaker



Here's an article about it:

Amura Namie Accused Of Plagiarizing G-Dragon
2011-11-09

Top Japanese celebrity Amuro Namie (age 34) is being accused to plagiarizing a song by Big Bang's leader G-Dragon (age 23).

According to Japanese media sources on November 9th, "There are suspicions of Amuro Namie's new song "Sit! Stay! Wait! Down!", set for a December 7th release, having been plagiarized off of G-Dragon's "Heartbreaker" song. Two years ago, G-Dragon's "Heartbreaker" was also accused of plagiarizing a song by US hip hop artist Florida."

This isn't the first time Namie faces such charges. She had a similar case pop up over her song "Black Diamond", when it was linked with being familiar to Janet Jackson's "Feedback".

Critical netizens have been taking to the net: "Another one copied?", "The melodies are almost identical", "We're both Japanese, but I can't deny and protect her", "Why copy k-pop out of all things?". On the other end, some are supporting the singer: "Totally different", "A bit of a stretch to say it's plagiarized".

Namie's reps have yet to release an official statement.

Yeaaahhhh all three have that similar melody. More so these two.

I don't think it's a big deal though. That's not saying anyone necessarily plagiarized anyone though.

Yeah, I honestly probably wouldn't even have caught it if the article hadn't told me.

Similitaries in the background mix are noticeable, but why such a big deal? Plagiaritzed or not, Nami-version is better : P
