kasiek Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 Source isn't very reliable but apparently they're sued for ripping off song from tenspoke indies (i have no idea who they are). anyway, here's the article http://misstilaomg.com/2010/10/11/paramore-sued-for-ripping-off-bands-song/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildman Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 I can see some of the similarities, but I don't think it was intentional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diana Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 I can't stand The only exception anyway,so I really don't care,haha. Listened to Tenspoke's song... well,it kind of sounds similar,to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chriss Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 This happens every time a band has a huge hit single... some band that's bummed that they'll never be that successful comes out of nowhere and says, "Hey we have a song that kind of, sort of, almost sounds like that song! We're gonna sue!" So they have the same chord progression. Great, so do thousands of other songs. I hear songs that remind me of other songs all the time. In fact, The Only Exception has always reminded me of a Coldplay song. Does this mean Coldplay can sue Tenspoke Indies because, apparently, it's their song, not Paramore's. *facepalm* And the whole thing about them sending their demo to FBR in 2006... do you know how many demos FBR gets every day and how many of them get thrown out without ever being listened to?

MSkeleton Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 Maybe some keys are the same, but still it's not song stealing? And i think many people don't even know who those people are, they are just jealouse about Paramore populairty? And why are they saying it now? BNE is a year a ago released, and now the only exception is a succes? They are claiming, 'it's stolen' ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HayleyRoxMySox Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 Who the hell is Tenspoke? Exactly. They can go screw. Trying to sponge off a successful band, go make your own name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxemoxxriotxx Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 yeah I've never even heard of Tenspoke, serisouly! wtf! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Now I can fend for myself Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 I don't think the songs sound the same, at all. This is total nonsense, and why are they saying this now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HayleyRoxMySox Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 it sounds nothing at all similar. They're being douchebag fuckheads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BABsxo. Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 Nonsense. Really all ive got to say on this matter. likewise. i'm not gonna bother listening to this random shit band in order to compare the tracks, but without even doing that i can say that the cord progression/melody in TOE is pretty simple so it'll be easy for it to sounds alike with a lot of things.

Good choice. I listened out of morbid curiosity and I can confirm that the elevenspoke song, or whatever the fuck their name is, totally sucks and isn't even remotely similar to TOE. If anything, Paramore should sue them for slander. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzzyrecky Posted October 17, 2010 Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 i listened, they barely sound alike i see some hints of it, but not really thats how a lot of songs are anyways Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HayleyRoxMySox Posted October 17, 2010 Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 I don't really see any hints of it at all. But then again, there's a finite number of chord combinations that don't sound like crap when played together, so there's bound to be, with all the millions upon millions of songs ever written and performed, some sort of repetition. If I write and perform a smash hit employing the combination of an A, D and E chord and someone else writes and performs a song that sucks ass and employs the combination of an A, D and G chord, do they have the right to sue me because we used two of the same chords?

Ross Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Well going to rip off a Paramore song in the future for some publicity and say it was mine first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HayleyRoxMySox Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 I'm not bashing so much as making a point. I got the bashing out of my system a while ago. Plenty of songs use the same chords and chord progressions. If we're going to accuse one band of ripping off another band, let's sue the Beatles, or the Rolling Stones, or REM, or you name it let's sue them.

bornforthis___x Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 i don't think they sound that similar. this is ridiculous anyway. there are so many songs with the same chord progressions, melodies, themes, and with similar lyrics.

HayleyRoxMySox Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 this isn't the first time I've heard of a no name band accusing a well known band of ripping off their song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caitlyn Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 I love Paramore with all my heart. The end. Really, from what I've seen from these amazing kids from the past five years, they wouldn't ever think of stealing anything from anyone.
