Pride = Crucified?

[voltron]

So I was showing my boyfriend the video for Pride and, like many others, he said the song sounded so familiar. It took him a while, but he got the song. It was a one-hit-wonder from the 90s called Army of Lovers, and the song was called "Crucified." The chords and notes of the chorus are almost identical.

Listen:

Well, damn o.o the chorus is nearly identical. What the heck

It wouldn't be Ayu's fault - it's GEO of Sweetbox since he is the one that composed it.

Edit: Sorry to repeat what has already been stated.

[makie_7]

umm yes, you're right, it's almost the same....

Many songs sound like other songs. I don't really mind myself.

Exactly. These comparisons happen all the time, and I don't understand why.

Who honestly cares?

[Damaximus]

Yes a lot of songs sound alike others. But this one is surprisingly so. I guess now we know how the composer came up with the tune

At least I can still say I prefer Pride

[Tasked]

To be fair, don't be pissed at Ayu; she didn;t compose the song. GEO of SWEETBOX composed the song.

For real :x and people are taking things way too serious. I think people here should be prescribed medication for high blood pressure.

edit: That is the most awful song I've ever heard. I don't hear the part were it sounds like Pride. "It's raining cats and dogs."

Exactly what I was about to say. And you can't expect Ayu to know EVERY SINGLE SONG ever released before actually singing a song written for her by someone else.

Haha I can just see how this will get blown out of proportions...maybe used by S.H.E. fans to retort what happened before.

Thanks for bringing this up though, 'cause I too thought "Pride" sounded familiar...although I've never heard of this song either. O_o

Thank you!! Don't be pissed at Ayu. It was GEO not CREA.

Everyone should know that if it has to do with Sweetbox than its more than likely going to be a sample/remake. That's almost a fact.

I agree!

Pride did sound familiar to me when I first heard it, but I know I've never even heard of the song "Crucified".

Well, you know, the world's going to run out of original tunes one day.

I thought HEAVEN sounded like Mariah Carey's "Hero"...

and it actually sounds pretty similar! lol, that's ok though. (Pride and Crucified)

[lotusoka]

I'm a fan of Army of Lovers... Crucified is a good song, but it is on almost all of their albums... with the exception of like... 2.

No big deal with the compostion, it doesn't sound TOO similar to me.

[SheFliesHigher]

When I first heard the chorus of Pride, I had this weird feeling that I had heard it before. I'm not familiar with this Crucified song, but the chorus sure sounds similar.

[Surreal]

No wonder Pride sounded familiar. Anyway....I don't think there's a need to be pissed at Ayu...for reals.

[Sweer]

Pride = crucify thats what I first thought about it as well when I heard it
but I couldnt find any file of it.
but I dont think this is any ripoff its just a weird coincidence and I never liked crucify unlike Pride
