"Marionette" is covered by a Vietnamese male singer! - Page 7

g~sus~ · #**121** 19th March 2009, 05:46 AM

wow...his voice is really good..hehe

but i hope legal action will be taken..it's really rude to not even bother to credit the composer

tinka69 · #**122** 19th March 2009, 06:49 AM

how can it be a good cover when it sounds exactly the same? it may as well be ayumi singing like a girly man.

perfectodub · #**123** 19th March 2009, 08:21 AM

i think the only person injured here is the real composer....maybe this is not the avex bussiness..is just a legal problem between author and thief.

That was a weird cover xD

ayumixfan · #**125** 19th March 2009, 10:02 AM

lol ohh I guess people don't know this about vietnamese music... lol its pretty much a worthless industry ._. that is why they can get away with these stuff... the singer doesnt even get royalties for singing the song XD ~! its flat rate pay. They make their money from participating in Concerts. Even if avex sues him, it'll end up costing them more than earning probably LMAO. If he's from vietnam singing, then he would be rich compared to the rest of the vietnamese people (which isn't a big accomplishment bbecause the country is relatively poor and the currency is worthless) and if he's american born then he probably has another job because singing in the vietnamese industry = no money XP So yeah, I'd be surprisd if Avex did something XD!

OMG, look what i've found.

Thanh Thao (another Vnese singer just did a concert and here's one of the performance

and AYumi's Born To Be from Arena Tour 2006

god, to be Vietnamese, i'm so ashamed of these people@

Yeah I also agree unless he used ayu's lyrics too.

He or his company should have credit Mr. Kazuhiro Hara or even pay him. I don't get why other people claim others' work and why not strive and make their own original works.

thanks for the article.
About the interview, I'm kinda irritated. I know he really has a good voice but the music just sounds like a midi file or from a Karaoke machine.

I don't think avex has something to do with this. As perfectodub said, it's just between the thief and the original author.

We should have contact Mr. kazuhiro Hara not avex unless he's under avex or something.

I has searched and I couldn't find any email or homepage to contact Mr. Kazuhiro Hara. However, his composed a lot of songs for Avex artists. I wonder he is under Avex company, maybe...

WOAH...This is just terrible the way they left everything EXACTLY the same.

The only thing they did was clear up the background music.

But at least it's a good cover and now a sucky one...

octocoffee · #**130** 20th March 2009, 05:11 AM

@A-TeensFan
Ech, I don't like Thanh Thao...I really don't know why.

Oh, and I think someone said another Vietnamese singer covered Depend on You...anywhere I can find it? I'm just really curious.

And has there been any reply from avex, to anyone?

Ayu_no_tenshi · #**131** 20th March 2009, 06:59 AM

^nope...no reply yet

AyuTan · #**132** 20th March 2009, 07:23 AM

This really banks. I wish Avex and such would start knocking down these people who copy....

dirtytoxic · #**134** 23rd March 2009, 04:41 AM

Ayu_no_tenshi · #**135** 25th March 2009, 11:39 PM

rakeru · #**136** 26th March 2009, 02:01 AM

as for the composer that the CD credits: is he real or just a name? if so, i suppose that means he's directly taking credit for another's work. w0w.

baoanhnguyen · #**137** 26th March 2009, 02:11 AM

ehhh vietnamese artist do stuff like this all the time! i went back in the summer and there was an entire JPOP cover album...HEAVEN was on it if i remember correctly. the music industry over depend on cover songs and whatnot x[

Larisa-chan · #**138** 26th March 2009, 04:41 AM

Hahaha, wow, the entire damn thing was ripped off... even the guitar parts!!!

Now, let's report Ayu for stealing Army of Lovers' song Crucified and made it into Pride and stealing Hoobastank's song and making it into Taskinst

Solarblade · #**139** 26th March 2009, 06:08 AM

Can't blame em, Marionette is that damn good of a song...I'm shocked American artists don't do this surprisingly lol...then again, there'd be so much scandal

blahh · #**140** 27th March 2009, 11:51 PM

I highly doubt that Avex would do anything, because there's really no point. The Vietnamese music industry is pratically worthless, even if Avex did sue them, they won't benefit much from it.

*sigh*

but gwad, shame shame shame on the singer and the so call composer! I hope they'll get some sort of punishment out of this.
