A Russian Singer released a "new" song that sounds exactly like Taeyang's "Eye, Nose, Lips"...

[showminomoney.livejournal.com]

BIGBANG fans around the world are in an uproar after discovering that Russian singer Albina Dzhanabaeva released a song that appears to be a copy of Taeyang’s “Eyes, Nose, Lips.”

The song by Albina, titled “I Love You,” was released on December 28, 2016, while Taeyang’s “Eyes, Nose, Lips” was released in 2014. While many other plagiarism accusations are cause for dispute among fans and non-fans alike, there is little question among netizens that the melody and instrumental of “I Love You,” outside of minor changes, is the same as “Eyes, Nose, Lips.”

In the description for the music video of “I Love You,” for which comments are now closed, Albina is listed as the songwriter and composer. (the original upload was taken down for copyright claim by YG, but reuploaded hours later with the comments open)

Edit: Apparently it's not Albina Dzhanabaeva, but another Russian singer also named Albina

the comments for the video is not closed btw.

Yeah, I should strike that. The first upload was taken down for copyright by YG Entertainment, but reuploaded with the comments open.

[pseudo-shigure.livejournal.com]

omg. so the comments are right. they actually re-upload it lol

[showminomoney.livejournal.com]

haha do you think they'll get sued? it's the exact same melody...

[pseudo-shigure.livejournal.com]

i mean, if it was taken down, i thought they wouldn't reupload it again bc obviously other people have issue w/it. omg the nerve. lol. is she even famous? if she's not even big i think YG wouldn't want to put effort and money for a lawsuit

Did they think no one would notice, or?

Even their breathing technique is the damn same

[audiograms.livejournal.com]

she didnt even try

Lmao Russia really doing the most this year. They even took on Pokemon.

[satsuki-angel.livejournal.com]

OMG, the nerve.
That singer was a part of the popular girlgroup which she left some years go. Don't think she has the same success as a solo but she is quite famous. More because of her long affair with the another male singer tbh.
Her management really thought nobody would notice? *facepalm*

All offense but this video is hilarious

-The mv which looks like ppl actually moving in slow motion instead of edited that way
-just....lmao
-that man's tragic hairstyle

This is so ridiculously blatant, even I can hear it and I never do.

OP, here's some clarification: http://disq.us/p/1etqprf
this person is still plagiarizing, but she's not the albina that soompi mentioned.

"I think YG can to sue this Albina for plagiarism/copyright infringement and Albina Dzhanabaeva can to sue Soompi for defamation."

this is killing me

"When you steal a song but can't hit the high notes"

i laughed

This is so random.

[jinkiestabi.livejournal.com]

I think if you're gonna steal, at least go all out.

[violoncelliste.livejournal.com]

omg the mv is so bad and it doesn't even sound that good and i usually eat songs in russian with a spoon. it reminded me of that ukrainian group who shot their own version of big bang's 'tell me goodbye' mv (they had permission). It was so random too. You can still watch it, it's Время и Стекло (Time & Glass) - Так выпала Карта on youtube :D

[otraera.livejournal.com]

Out of all taeyangs songs they chose this one ?!

[tsuyoi-hikari.livejournal.com]

lol its like she just sing the song in Russian. Its an excellent song so I enjoy it a lot! :D

[blck-ink.livejournal.com]

this is hilarious

[nha2licious.livejournal.com]

So it's not a cover of Eyes Nose Lips in Russian?

That vibrato though.....umm...not likin it.

[zydratee.livejournal.com]

well she tried.

[kyokomurasaki.livejournal.com]

I can't believe this got re-uploaded (with comments!!!) after YG slapped the original with a copyright violation. Wonder how long it takes for them to close the comments again since all of them are calling her out for plagiarizing... EDIT: looks like YG's snatched the new one down already too

This just reminds me of that idiot who tried to claim that Taeyang stole the melody for this song and there ended up being screenshots of him saying that the version he uploaded was a cover of ENL. People are so dumb.

[itsme-malay.livejournal.com]

cant believe they even had the nerve to reupload it after the original upload was taken down lol
