the way there's a bunch of uncultured gays talking **** about Amanda in the replies of Pop Crave and saying they don't know her. Open the schools

The Sphinx and El Condor Pasa share the same chord progression, that's where the similarities end. Meanwhile Redlights and The Sphinx similarities goes way beyond that, the vocal melody is exactly the same, the verses sounds the same, the chorus sounds the same.

as she should, the way she's also been consistently on Madonna's neck since she first saw the Confessions on a Dance Floor era look

Her worst song is whatever this is, thank God it's not part of Renaissance

Like a Virgin is the most important one to pop culture. She'll forever be recognized as the Material Girl by the GP, even though she hates that lol and True Blue is the most important one to her career, mainly because it marked the start of her brilliant collaboration with Patrick Leonard. He gave substance and sophistication to her music, which helped her to be taken seriously as a real artist and not just a sexy fun popstar like in the previous eras.

girl... Flowers and I Will Survive have a similar melody. This goes way beyond that, it's basically the same song with different lyrics. It's awkward.

Amanda Lear is a living legend, I'm sure Miley knows her. Did you listened to the songs? It's not just similar, it almost sounds like a cover, but with different lyrics. It's the exact same melody and structure.

anyways, I liked most of the album. Different Religion, Neon Signs and INNOCENT WAYS!!! are instant faves for me. though the ballads really drag the project down, especially Orbit, and I usually like Miley's ballads alot.

hmm, so I just saw the credits of the album and why there's NO mention of any sample or interpolation in REDLIGHTS, when it's clearly based on The Sphinx by Amanda Lear? I refuse to believe Miley would just shamelessly rip-off an entire song like that? #weird

OMFG REDLIGHTS heavily samples/interpolates The Sphinx by THEE Amanda Lear! I was not expecting this. Oh Miley, you have impeccable taste

it was also the first album with her "granny" grating nasal voice, which was kinda off-putting for some listeners since she still had her classic Madonna vocal tone on Confessions.

A good song that she completely ruined and destroyed with her unbearable American Idol audition vocal delivery, something that, unfortunately, became very recurrent in her music since then. Kevin's original demo remains the superior version

this was expected, all of her Dance singles flopped. Can't Be Tamed, Who Owns My Heart, even River while Flowers was still smashing. There's clearly no demand for this type of music from her, even though all those songs are fine.

nah, this was the most disrespectful

Absolutely not, but except for Kylie Minogue and Britney Spears, all the other popgirls have some suspicious writing credits in their discography, incluiding the ones that are widely recognized as songwriters.
