Do these two songs sound the same, like copyright infringement?

Radiohead thinks so, so they're suing Lana Del Ray.

The irony is Radiohead stole it from another band called The Hollies and had to pay out.

I don't think these two songs sound alike at all. What do you think?

"Radiohead sues Lana Del Rey for allegedly ripping off Creep

Radiohead has been pretty open about how much it gets sick of Creep, with the band going years and years without playing it live, but Radioheads efforts to distance itself from that annoyingly massive hit shouldnt be taken as an indication that it doesnt care about it. According to Pitchfork, Radiohead is actually suing Lana Del Rey over her song Get Free, which the band apparently believes is similar enough to Creep that it deserves all of the publishing rights. Lana Del Rey confirmed the story on Twitter, saying she offered Radiohead 40 percent ownership but they will only accept 100. She also adds that the bands lawyers have been relentless, so theyll have to deal with it in court.

Interestingly, Creep was also met with a copyright dispute back in the day, when the band agreed to give up a percentage of the rights to songwriters Albert Hammond and Mike Hazlewood over similarities to The Air That I Breathe by The Holliessimilarities that Radiohead admitted to, which is good because theyre very obvious.

I think there are some similarities, but not enough to conclude that she stole/copied or that they are entitled to anything from it

Sound alike? Yes. Copyright infringement? I don't think so. I mean, they don't seem close enough imo.

It does sound like Creep but not blatantly enough to be worth a lawsuit.

Who cares? People post multiple topics about the same things all the time. It's fine.
