dumbsparce Posted 11 hours ago Posted 11 hours ago I hear it but maybe it was a coincidence? It's quite a simple little tune.

JoeAg Posted 11 hours ago Posted 11 hours ago I slightly hear it but honestly the similarities between S&M and Charli's Mean Girls is way more catching to my ear tbh
vuelve88 Posted 11 hours ago Posted 11 hours ago It would be a nice way for Rihanna to shine a light on an up and coming artist like she did for Paul McCartney. 4

LadyDiana Posted 11 hours ago Posted 11 hours ago Didn't they say they are giving up on any royalties, just bcs they don't want to be associated with Rihanna in any way? 2
Alongoria13 Posted 10 hours ago Posted 10 hours ago 90% of artists should pay royalties given the Depeche print is virtually everywhere 1
Junipero Posted 10 hours ago Posted 10 hours ago (edited) Perhaps it is on the producer? I know that many of the big producers in the early 2010's used Vengeance Sound Sample packs(RedOne used it for the bassline in Judas, Dr. Luke I think said he used one of the sample packs for ideas as well); I heard there were moments when the creator of the sample packs had sampled without permission some sounds, which many found hypocritical considering how expensive those packs were. For example, here is the Judas sample(and yet Gaga was complaining to RedOne and begged for credit on Jlo's album despite not comming up with the bassline): Edited 10 hours ago by Junipero
Popboi. Posted 9 hours ago Posted 9 hours ago 1 hour ago, xxxlamb said: actually both songs interpolate The Cure's "Let's Go To Bed" Yup, and they get royalties from S&M. That answers the thread. 1
MatiRod Posted 8 hours ago Posted 8 hours ago (edited) It's not the same melody. But S&M/Only Girl are very synth-pop influenced which Depeche Mode are a big part of so there is an influence, but it's not the exact same notes. That said, after Blurred Lines they might have a case Edited 8 hours ago by MatiRod
Katamari Posted 7 hours ago Author Posted 7 hours ago 4 hours ago, xxxlamb said: actually both songs interpolate The Cure's "Let's Go To Bed" One lawsuit at a time please thank you
fromily Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago it seems like a lot of musicians from this era just aren't interested in suing over this stuff. i mean elvis costello could probably (definitely) have sued olivia rodrigo for credits on brutal and this was his response mind you, neither depeche mode nor elvis costello need the money so that might be a factor
Digitalism Posted 59 minutes ago Posted 59 minutes ago Asking for a credit would be admiting they stole it from the cure and that is not happening
