I think I found a song with a similar vibe in the intro as Livin' on a prayer. Great tune, regardless!

That sounds like something 70s Desmond Child would have been familiar with given his writing track record during that decade!

It´s almost impossible not to "steal" parts of melodies.
Experts on the memory say it clearly. You listen to something without paying attention but the sounds get shelved in the memory until some day, maybe years afterwards, you come up with something completely new, or at least that´s what your convinced of. Of course there´re copies that are on purpose but I guess those are the less. |

I think there's also a line to draw between "inspired by" and "ripped off". For instance, stuff like the verses of Burning For Love, the intro of With These Two Hands, the melody of The Fighter or Take Back The Night - that can't be accidental given that the "source songs" had been prominent in the charts in the two or three years leading up to it. Others where there are similarities like the intros to Prayer and Wanted - I feel that these were more influencing their own song rather than them trying to copy the source.

I’m no musical expert, like I can’t tell the bass being played just to give you guys an idea, but imo it’s feels close to impossible to make a tune that doesn’t sound one bit like another song. There’s only so much you can do, if you don’t want to walk down the round of making something revolutionary that most people won’t like until you’ve shoved it down people’s throats enough times. Like I can hear similarities which feel oddly familiar, sure, that may have been intentional and a little more than an inspiration, but some of these other songs mentioned to have been copied by the band seems like such unknown, random and buried songs. Can’t expect a writer to have listened to the whole library of songs released during human’s existence. That’s just my take, but it’s a fun thread tho

(The guitar riff very sounds similar). |
