Just noticed this. Curious if you guys have noticed any other Ayu songs that sound exactly like other pop tracks overseas? (I faintly remember something about "Tell me why" being a remake of some Turkish song.)

haaaaa, that is a nice find. They use the same instrumental sort of, however the leading melody is different.

It wasn’t a remake, but rather they purchased the composition from the same place. It was a Greek song.

Mad World doesn’t sound EXACTLY like Try. A few notes here and there...

“taskinst” literally plagerizes Hoobastank’s “Don’t Tell Me.”

^I actually think Hoobastank and tasuku just bought from the same sample library, since most of the taskwhatever instrumentals from tasuku are basically things thrown together from sample libraries. A lot of the taskwhatever instrumentals sounds like other songs therefore.

There's literally like 4-5 task interludes that sound like other songs. It's samples.

These are old and fairly well-known ones, but:
Pride = Crucified by Army of Lovers


Feel the Love = In My Mind (Axwell Mix) by Ivan Gough & Feenixpawl ft. Georgi Kay
Starting around 1:20


Edit:
And just for fun...
Rainy Day = Tones from Close Encounters of the Third Kind


(Mostly I think Geo is super unoriginal)

Sose Me is the song that you are talking about



This thread is cool

Songs that sound like Ayu's?

Forbidden Love and Like It or Not resembles to And Then for me, Ayu's song was released first though.

That's why it says "almost" exactly. Lol. The rhythm and even the way the composition/arrangement flows and stops is very very similar.
