Netizens strike again with plagiarism accusations

[thrift.livejournal.com]

They just had their their successful comeback stage on SBS Inkigayo yesterday performing the title song "I Hope" and "Marry Me", but there are already saying that FT Island’s track "Angel and Woodman" sounds way too similar to singer Jason Mraz’s "Live High".

Some are saying that the 2 songs’ acoustic guitar portion sounds the same.

Or at least buy more powerful vibrators. :( It makes all the difference girls.

netizens should go get a life rather than spending their time pointing these things out :|

ugh.

Do they really think korean record companies are going to plagiarize right now?

A lot of these accusations would stop if people would actually buy the album and look at the credits. Like what happened to Taeyang.

i think people are a little too harsh on netizens. it's not like all of them are involved in shit like this. i'd compare it to our 'who wore it better?' posts: one person notices something and then points it out to others and they comment

THIS.

[honeebs.livejournal.com]

This twice!

[warui-otome.livejournal.com]

Bored much?

Netizens should replace the CIA. All terrorists would be found in a week.

i'm scared to listen you guys.

[xshinebrighterx.livejournal.com]

still, even if it's plagarism or whatever, it's not like it was the guys choice

[aprettyeternity.livejournal.com]

So true. Put those netizens to work!

Netizens, Netizens, Netizens
The word is even annoying.

The acoustic guitar bit is definitely the same but that hardly means direct plagiarism, STFU NETIZENS.

[natacha92.livejournal.com]

PS: The entire song is completely different and awesome, though, so whatever.

[jinnptr.livejournal.com]

Similar but not enough. >

This is random, but sort of related. :59-1:06 or 1:48-1:55 of "You and I" from FTI's Jump Up mini-album reminds me so much of the bridge of John Lennon's "Imagine."

For the record, I'm totally an FTI fan and don't buy the whole plagiarism thing. Just something I've noticed.
