标题Re: [留言] A Note To The Weepies
时间Wed Jan 27 01:05:12 2010
※ 引述《Jassiehs (Tanya不愧是我的心上人呀)》之铭言:
: Hi I'm Tanya Chua. This is a note from myself to The Weepies and all fans of
: The Weepies. In 2008, I produced and sang a Chinese song called Red High
: Heels which ended up with the same tempo, key and had an intro that sounded
: similar as The Weepies's song, Take It From Me. It went on to catch the
: attention of some music lovers who started making comparisons to these two
: songs, challenging the authenticity of both songs from both sides. It
: definitely created a very awkward situation for myself when I was first asked
: about it, as though admittedly I have heard The Weepies's songs before, I
: definitely was not conscious of the similarities nor did I have their song in
: mind when I wrote and arranged it. It was only when someone somehow morphed
: our songs together that I realized the resemblance in some parts.
: As a writer myself, I can understand how protective we can be of our
: compositions. Nobody wants to have their songs sounding similar to anyone
: else, let alone questioned. So when this comparison got to the ears of The
: Weepies, they contacted me and asked for my clarifications as they were very
: troubled with the fact that their song was released before mine. After being
: asked repeatedly about this, it felt long overdue that I set the record
: straight here on my own page and hopefully it will bring some rest and
: assurance.
: If this has caused any distress and inconvenience to The Weepies or even
: raised doubts in anyone in regards to the originality of The Weepies
: composition, Take It From Me, I offer my most sincere apology. I'm just a
: simple music lover and writer who just wrote what felt natural to me at that
: time with no intention to copy The Weepies. I wish The Weepies all the best
: in their wonderful music.
: Love, Peace and Light
: Tanya Chua
: ps: please forward this note to anyone who may be concerned or who have
: inquired The Weepies about this matter, as I don't really know how to reach
: all of you. Thanks.

: 请大家帮忙传达Tanya的想法!!
可以问一下这个事件的後续发展吗
後来the wippies有没有针对这个发表啥评论 而tanya又有何回应
我只是单纯觉得这种处境很尴尬
想知道tanya跟她所属的版权公司怎麽针对这个问题处理
我觉得tanya应该不是"有意"的抄袭
但可能在创作的时候那些听过的旋律或概念就下意识地流泄出来
不知道一般词曲版权公司对於旗下创作人的创作有没有一种审查过滤制度
尽可能地把这种"无心之过"挑出来
毕竟创作人也可能会有盲点 忘了这个旋律线似曾相识
我不太相信巧合啦 但我也相信tanya这种创作人绝对不会去intentionally抄袭
毕竟这对创作人是很伤的评价
