Is Ayumi just a big copycat?

This song has the EXACT same music and sound as Tell me why.

No
They're credited in the album liner notes.
You should call it a quasi-cover.

Koda Kumi has done this a few times too. I think the company like, buys some of the rights to the song or something like that? Kuu did that with "Can We Go Back" and "Physical thing". It's really nothing new.

I think you and the author of this thread should try to get more information before accusing of the copy cat thing. As the others already said, the rights to this song were purchased.

there was already a post about this.
And yes, everyone got credit where it was due.

Besides, this is pop music... everyone copies everyone.

To be more exact, Avex solely bought the rights for the instrumental. The lyrics of the original song are completely different from Ayu's version.

We must have polar opposite tastes in music.

So... All the people disturbed by this terrible information... Why don't you just leave her fandom for good, go plant some carrots or something and stop annoying people over here on the forum?

I always knew Tell me why isn't a Japanese song tbh. It has always sounded so European in my ears that it just made sense when it was revealed it was actually a cover. Why is this such a big issue anyway? Bold & Delicious, Ladies Night, In The Corner, Pride, Beautiful Day, rainy day and Memorial address are also covers.
