It's not shady, it is plagiarism. The chorus is a copy of the chorus from Ugly Heart.

 

I'm not disagreeing with that. I just think using Simone's account for that is wrong.

Are you joking?

 

Tweeting from DEAD girls account to create more drama is POOR taste and DISGUSTING. No matter what it is about. End of story!

Anyway...

 

 

They've pushed James Arthur down to 70% in just their second update!

They are doing THAT!

Well as a member of the band maybe she would have agreed.

 

Anyway, the tweet is gone now (from Simone's account), or maybe it is just a photoshop of the tweet from the G.R.L. main account.

 

Also the similarity could be good for raising G.R.L.'s profile.

 

It seems Simone's account is used regularly (by someone??) so it isn't liked they just used it out of the blue.

Hi guys it's Zhane sorry 4 the tweet I didnt mean it in any horrible way! We r here 2 promote the foundation! I apologize -@iamprincezhane

 

Even he knows it was a bit out of line and distasteful off that account. The melody of the chorus isn't even very similar, it's just the backing.

Yeah it wasn't meant in a horrible way, I still stand by G.R.L. and whoever Zhane is.

 

Simone's last released song was ripped off so she would probably have been annoyed about it if she was still here.

Ugly Heart was hardly revolutionary itself, yes it was a brilliant pop song but I don't see the point of tearing down the girls' because this song happens to be similar to another one in its backing. Meghan Trainor's Better When I'm Dancing had this sort of backing too. It's just the way pop goes, a lot of songs are quite similar. It's hardly a straight carbon copy, the lyrics and melody are different :lol:
This has just gone top 20 on US iTunes, which is MASSIVELY exceeding the expectations I had for it there :wub:

Ahhhh!! Hope their label plan on releasing it to radio over there coz I really think radio will lap it up, much more so than 'Black Magic', 'Move' et al. I'm surprised it's got as high as it has off the back of their live stream of the performance! These girls really know no bounds. They're phenomenal and somehow still really underrated/appreciated (in a similar way to how P!nk and Kelly Clarkson were/are - still really successful all the same)

As expected, it's track of the day on R1!

 

Someone on popjustice confirmed that it is indeed the fastest climb to #1 on iTunes since Adele's Hello!

I'm not hugely impressed on the first listen, I'd read the 'Ugly Heart' similarities but even that surprised me.

 

I suppose there's always room to grow.
