coldplaymix Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Princess of China (for those who haven't heard of yet) [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=31mGlCEz9zw[/ame] This is the Vietnamese song, which was released in 2008, called "Ra Ngõ Tụng Kinh" (Pray At The Alley) http://www.nhaccuatui.com/nghe?M=gGiYemgP-w You may notice the similarity of tone between the two songs ? The intros are exactly the same. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

an angel Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 There's no way this could just be a coincidence. Makes you wonder if they were telling the truth about not plagiarizing before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gus Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 well yep the intro is similar but not the whole song Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppywarlord Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 It's called a hook, that's all that's needed to be considered plagiarism.. Although I doubt that's an actual copyrighted song Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basstialbo Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 mmm sounds tribal, but its chinese, I think the sound characteristic of the area or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porcupine Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 It may be a coincidence. In the Princess of China, Colplay used voice sample while in the Vietnamese song, the singer sang all. However, it's ridiculous that the way of arranging is similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

porcupine Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 maybe both contain elements of some song which we didn't know:laugh3: Not only the element for their intro humming. Arrangement is quite similar as well and the rythm of the first part is also same. Is it a coincidence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZonkyTonk13 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Wow... how the hell did you find this? I actually like this vietnamese song haha but it's VERY similar. I wonder how long it's going to take for this to blow up the internet. I'm not familiar with the first time Coldplay was accused of Plagiarism...what song was it?
