Forgot how much I like some Cash. Buuut I mean the female vocal and the lyrics. Or maybe pop is ripping off dance music so fiercely the line is too blurred.

The bassline also sounds like Gangnam Style, sorta.

ftfy...

And that Rihanna track... Tribute or ripoff? I'd say it's more of tribute than the example I'm gonna post, but still.. It's lazy.. But the whole r&b, hiphop commercial shit-scene is about unoriginality. I can't remember who said it, but it was one of the bigger players in that milieu, that stated that all he ever did was take the first phrase of a known, and loved, riff and just changed the ending. And I mean, I fucking hate it when a song sounds like another song, how can anyone rise to the top with an work ethic like that? Garr I fucking hate unoriginality..

5 internet points to whoever can identify what song she's stolen this melody from;

Oh My Darling Clementine?

You owe me 5 points, pay up!

I tried to make it so you could just print it out, but the bar code won't work then so just cut it straight out of your monitor and present it to your local internet representative.
