what's your reaction if your idol got copied?

[LacusClyne]

recently, there are a lot of 'copycat' threads going around. this is a poll to see the most common reactions among us. it's multi choice, happy choosing.

4 me, i won't mind for 1 or 2 things alike, but more than that can't be just a concidence...as for covering the songs, i'm fine with it as long as the original singer's piece is credit. afterall, it's so hard nowadays to have 100% original idea. just close 1 eye.

[heyrill]

it doesnt bother me at all,as long as they sing well enough....

[BanFan]

It's ok. I don't care as long as they sing well...
...And 'It's the director or song composer's fault, why should i blame the artist?'

[PickleCookies]

I don't care.

[Corybobory]

Where's the 'who cares?' option?

[Aya Ariki]

it's impossible for me to bash that copycat, even if i wanted to.

[~K+]

I honestly have no issues with cover songs at all, it's just another artist's interpretation. If it happens to be a good cover, it's a bonus. If not? Who cares.

[Mad_Cactuar]

i wont be happy but no bashing.. Just like after I heard Irish Son and Endless Sorrow..
BRIAN MCFADDEN "IRISH SON"
AYUMI HAMASAKI "ENDLESS SORROW"
These two have the same background loop, listen to them..

[NeoDaydream]

i'd be like "whatever! they're just trying to be cool like Ayu!" lol

[ohsixthirty]

i need an option for "who cares" too. it doesn't bother me.

[Mirai Noah]

I don't really care.

[Indie]

I don't really care, I don't see the deal on getting mad because someone has a song/video that sounds/looks like your favorite artist's song/video, it certainly doesn't mean they're going to sell less.

[lotusoka]

With copying comes flattery.

[Fungu]

I wouldnt care I'll prolly like them too.

[LacusClyne]

for the 'who cares' option, it's under others, since i can't think up of any more options...and missed that... but curently it seems that most of us here r very reasonable, so where do those 'i hate those copycats' people come out from???

[extepan]

i dont care. everyone copies in some way anyway. it is a form of learning.

[-Link-]

who cares, copying is normal,

its like jvc makes a dvd player, then panasonic makes one, then sony, that dont mean everyone copied jvc, theyre just doing what works for the money.

Right? If people actually felt this way, then they would just leave things be and there would be less drama.

[Aya Ariki]

I'm surpised, nobody hates that copycat...

[HanabiChick]

Overall, I wouldn't care. If it was someone covering a song I like it doesn't interest me, because I'm more interested in the original version, I don't really listen to covers much. If it's some similarity in clothes, music etc. I'm not bothered, most are just similarity and nothing else. I've heard people bash outright copycats, but I just don't get caught up with focusing on someone I don't like, it's just a waste of time and energy that would be better spent on something better.
