We all know Shinee's new hit Juliette. The song sounds extremely familiar, right? For those who haven't heard...

i'm pretty sure everyone knows that its a remake.

[discs.livejournal.com]

lmfao. sm bought the copyrights, and it's written everywhere that juliette is a remake of deal with it.

[ex-decenniu.livejournal.com]

corbin bleu's hair has a mind of its own

[nezumi-kenka.livejournal.com]

It actually owns the copyright to this song.

[onewsouffle.livejournal.com]

This isn't plagiarism, they lincensed the song. =/
I belive they even posted about it already over at the SHINee community.

[epona.livejournal.com]

old news, sorry

[hoyah.livejournal.com]

is that the kid from high school musical?

[bowling1991.livejournal.com]

yes, he is. :D

[nezumi-kenka.livejournal.com]

Bit late Steph =/

[bowling1991.livejournal.com]

It's not plagiarism. They bought the rights to the song, clearly SM would know they would get in trouble if they don't. It's a remake. :D

[lennoxs.livejournal.com]

omg lol.

[miximel.livejournal.com]

Like everyone says, legal. Oh, and Jonghyun wrote the lyrics - it's only one of the reasons why to me, Juliette >>>>>>> Deal With It.

SO OLD.

[ashiva.livejournal.com]

One of the mods must not be very into SHINee as this post got approved.

Re: SO OLD.

[changmim.livejournal.com]

That was me!

I'm aware this has been brought up in Shinee posts before. I discussed it with another mod, and we decided that since it wasn't posted separately that it was fine.

Also, since some members may have not checked all the comments from older SHINee posts, they may like to discuss this.

stop commenting the same stuff over and over.

[ohbangladesh.livejournal.com]

Ok how many times are people gonna write the same comment? I think we all get it now; the poster honestly didn't know. Since almost 15 people said it's old; I think it's understood that it was old when the first two people said it.

Re: stop commenting the same stuff over and over.

[xiahtic.livejournal.com]

dude, seriously. ia.

[calltheshots.livejournal.com]

lol

[sup-homeskillet.livejournal.com]

yeah, if I remember correctly, it was brought up numerous times in the post where the song first came out. idk if the corbin bleu factor had its own post, though.

[smilingsounds.livejournal.com]

i love corbin bleu man, he needs to come back

[tinyknots.livejournal.com]

He has a new album!

IDK how I know this omg.

[law-oneofmany.livejournal.com]

honestly i didnt know about it either...

anyway

for it to be released legitimately, they would have no choice but to get the rights, or shinee would have probably been sued by now...

[cookie-nut.livejournal.com]

Seeing as SHINee didn't write the music or the lyrics, I would not accuse them of plagiarizing anything.

It's just like with "Mirotic" and "Sorry, Sorry": SM is cheap as hell and would rather recycle.

[megasourwarhead.livejournal.com]

ohh I remember the Mirotic one, eeek dnw that chick's version :X

:O but which song is Sorry Sorry a remake of?

[changmim.livejournal.com]

Guys, please cut the poster some slack.

I approved this for reasons stated above, so if you have problems with it, please talk to me about it instead.

I would much prefer users posting than not posting at all.

Also, as you can see- some members have not read about this. If this is old news to you, then please, just scroll past the post rather than ripping into a first time poster.

Thanks bbs!

[turdferguson.livejournal.com]

and i'm one of those people who didn't hear about it! and corbin bleu, ick. i'll deal with it.

[natacha92.livejournal.com]

idc about no corbin bleu

[chickadork.livejournal.com]

any post with shinee's juliette mv is ok with me lol.

lol i pretty much dislike all the hsm'ers except for efron. unf. ;D

[sarsee.livejournal.com]

Before anyone makes any plagiarism accusations,
check out the song credits of both songs >_> .

[-ochre.livejournal.com]

I pray to god when someone messes their cut there wont be 50 million comments going "CUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT" lmao.

[turdferguson.livejournal.com]

LULZ. "fix your cut bitch" or other hateful comments over there (and im really glad there's no immature interwebz fighting in omona threads)

[shanny-w.livejournal.com]

Whoa... settle down people.

[tearbear.livejournal.com]

wasn't this mentioned like... 2 weeks ago? ngl.

conclusion: we all know SM is not original at all... why does this still fathom people?

[xlucky-charm.livejournal.com]

Most of SHINee's songs are remakes,
SM Ent., doesn't usually write their own songs, they buy the copyright. xD
