here you can talk about any singer or band who you think is copying the other!
in my opinion:
Avril lavinge copying amy lee in her goth and farytale look!
if you have seen the new avril pics you will know!(amy designs her own clothes and sews them herself at times)
i hope im right (i didnt do much research on avril style,but saw a couple of pics )
britney spears:all her new videos are copies of other videos!
i think i got more.....
i cant think of them now!
i will try to post pics of these ppl changing!(later not now!)

Well, there are a million bands that are just variations of Green Day... Not to say they're all bad, but most pop-punk bands today get their style from Green Day

Britney Spears / Madonna

how about every single heavy metal dickhead that's just a copy, but thinks their original. Jon Bon Jovi, Kid Rock, Sammy Hagar, Dave Lee Roth, Kid Rock, Sebastian Bach, Brent Michaels, Nikki Six, Tommy Lee, Axl Rose, Duff Mckagen (who surprisingly was in the Fartz and the Fastbacks, two punk legends!!!!!!!). hell, flush em all down the can.

hmm, other clones....Bush is a nirvana clone, PiL is a Flipper clone, the offspring blatantly ripoff TSOL, i could talk about this forever.

The lead bloke from The Hives (dunno his name) is completely ripping Mick Jagger off

and The Offspring. They've been around just as long.

And the Darkness, like The Cult before them, are suffering from the unfortunate delusion that they are in fact Queen...

The Cult were like Queen? Please explain! The Cult were an amazin band!

yes, that too.

Puddle of Mudd copies Nirvana.

just as long? TSOL started in '79!!

I agree, they were a great band... but if you ever saw them on stage you'd see the resemblence... musically the most obviously Queen-like album was the one with "Love removal machine" on it.. can't remember the title, and I can't be bothered to go down and look... even the pic of them on the cover is Queen-like... especially when you look at early Queen (Bohemian Rhapsody and before...)

oops... hit the wrong button there...

hehehe
i m really annoyed by avril!!!!!!!!!!!
i hate her sooo much!
hey no i hate britney more!
no wait hilary duff
no emma watson!
ya i hate watson more!!!!!!

*smacks forhead* This is not an Emma Watson thread...

i know!
she bugs me soo much that i have to mention her in every hating list!
she makes me sick!!!!!!!!!!!
!
oh well . i HATE it when singers copy others!
hmmmm

The Vines think they are Nirvana.

all these 20 year old pop singer girls copy each other

You know many of the artists mentioned in this thread aren't copying anyone at all. They've just been heavily influenced. Puddle Of Mudd, I saw someone say, they aren't copying Nirvana at all. They're just another grunge band. All grunge bands sound like Nirvana in some way. I'll take this moment to remind everyone that nothing in music is completely original. It all stems from something.

And as for The Hives singer comment, how can he be ripping off Jagger? He can't help what his voice sounds like. Ok so he may immitate his style slightly, but theres nothing wrong with taking inspiration from one of the greatest rock artists of all time.

whoever said Puddle of Mud copied nirvana is retarded

You can help how your voice sounds, i'd be able to sing like Jagger if i wanted to. Anyways, he COMPLETLEY copying Jagger, the way he struts across stage. I'm not saying its bad to have inspiration from someone but to completely copy them?

So what do you suggest? He sings with a helium voice and a German accent just so no one notices his voice sounds like Jagger? I don't see anyone complaing that Aaron Lewis, Shaun Morgan and Wes Scantlin all sound like Kurt Cobain. They're not copying him, they're just keeping alive one of the greatest vocal talents of all time, as is The Hives singer (apparently).

He's not completely copying him. In fact until you mentioned it I hadn't even noticed any similarities between the two. And I'd be hard-pressed to find a rockstar who doesn't strut across the stage. In case you haven't noticed, its what they do. All of them, not just Jagger.

"omg brit i love your shirt" "oh no christina yours is so much better then mine" "i dont know brit its only showing my whole chest" "i see what you mean, OH HI JANET," "hey u 2, woopsie my nipple popped out"

Whats so retarded about it? The guy sings in the exact same style, and his messages of depression are practically the same. They may not actually be copying them, but there is major similarities.

I had noticed thanks. Look, it's just my opinion if you dont agree then fair do's but i think he has nicked his moves. No rock stars swagger like Jagger, his moves stand out but, to me, The Hives bloke just looks like he's copying him.
I'm not having a go at you so don't take this personally.

kurt and the guitarist of puddle of mudd
used
to
have
the
same
hair
that pisses me off

(((((singers hair it a big part of my life ))))

Almost every post-Nirvana grunge band has 'copied' Kurt's style. It's basically the trademark voice for the genre. It's more of a flattery and acknowledgment of a great talent than a deliberate rip-off.

And never compare Puddle Of Mudd's lyrics to Nirvana's. Thats just sickening.

The Vines sound almost nothing like Nirvana

nirvana is darker and angryer

tm- Then every grunge band is a copy cat of Nirvana and my statement of them trying to be the same. Plus their look is even like them like Black Onyx said.

yeah its mean

stupid posers

was it a wig??!!??

No, it wasn't. I don't think its mean though. I actually like Puddle of Mudd. I just see major similarities between them and Nirvana.

i only heard one song


it was over played to much so i stopped liking it

Onyx, just because they all dress the same and have a similar sound doesn't make all post-Nirvana bands "posers"... Grunge is a genre, which, by the way, Nirvana didn't consider themselves to be part of... I don't see you calling all post-Ramones punk bands posers...

i was kidding around


sorry

oh **** this one girl i know is such a ****ing **** brain she ****ing gets on my ****ing back for ****ing dressing how i ****ing want to ****ing dress then she ****ing goes and ****ing dresses like ****ing avril laving and its ****ing pissing me off

one sec *counts how many time ****ing is said*

Which song have you heard Onyx? You should check out "She Hates Me", "Control", "Blurry", and "Drift and Die". All good songs.

Hmm... I know how you feel, but that was a little overdone...

yeah know that i read it it sound kinda corny

i know........ i mean!
i hate avril and her stupid lame style!
and if someone copy's her u would ".........duh" blow up!

Bob Dylan's voice is a blatant rip off of Woody Guthrie

I don't really think that he sounds too much like Jagger, but his stage presence does resemble Jagger's quite a bit. I don't see anything wrong with it, though. I think its cool, and I daresay a bit nostalgic. (Not to mention really really sexy for some odd reason. Not that Jagger is sexy....but this guy is!!!)

^Fair do's
