....Yeah you definitely missed the point of this.

I'm not harping on them for ripping off another band. I'm saying we're using "Well this song ripped off Tom Petty so they're liars" and "this song stole from the Civil Wars" as reasons to bash the band but the fact that 20 years ago they did the exact same thing and Saturday Night is loved so much. I wanted a debate on why we're okay with it sometimes and not others.
