NEWS: Paramore (and Fueled By Ramen) are being sued for stealing another band’s song. 

This band, Tenspoke Indies, is suing Paramore for copyright infringement because they claim that parts of their song “Starlighter” are in Paramore’s song “The Only Exception”.

They wrote & recorded the song in 2006, sent a copy to Fueled By Ramen and three years later, Paramore released Brand New Eyes, featuring “The Only Exception”.

Tenspoke claims that there is substantial similarity between “Starlighter” and “The Only Exception” including but not limited to, similarities in the introductions, arrangements, the chord progression, the key, the melody, the lyrical theme, the rhythm and tempo of both songs.

Tenspoke Indies wants at least $75,000 plus other things. 

Do they sound similar to you? Take a listen by clicking here.

WELL.

I know this isn’t All Time Low related at all, but I just have to say this:

Songs are eventually going to sound the same. There are only so many chord progressions out there that sound good.

I’m not saying that these guys don’t have the right to be upset at the fact that the song sounds similar to theirs, but honestly? It doesn’t matter. If your song were good enough to stand out on its own, it would have.

/ end rant.
