That said, the guy flat out copies quite many things (and occasionally even complete songs) from Jon EXTREMELY blatantly. For example, this song is so close to Bang A Drum that I honestly think, if Lima were any more famous, he probably would've ended up in the court because of it:

Hallelujah (What's It to Ya?) - YouTube
Oh boy, that really does sound A LOT like Bang A Drum 😅

If that guy were more famous, I could certainly see him ending up in court because of this.

Although I'm not sure if Jon would care enough to sue, since Bang A Drum isn't exactly a super well-known hit song and Jon himself probably doesn't spend much time thinking about that song either.
