This is the Vietnamese song, which was released in 2008, called "Ra Ngõ Tụng Kinh" (Pray At The Alley)

You may notice the similarity of tone between the two songs ? The intros are exactly the same. Thoughts?

How the hell did you find this???

 

But wow, that's freaky, the melody is undeniably similar, at least the oooooohhh part from poc/haaayyyyyyyy

Coldplagiarism.

oops they did it again

There's no way this could just be a coincidence.

 

Makes you wonder if they were telling the truth about not plagiarizing before.

they know they have good lawyers

well yep the intro is similar but not the whole song

It's called a hook, that's all that's needed to be considered plagiarism..

Although I doubt that's an actual copyrighted song

mmm sounds tribal, but its chinese,

 

I think the sound characteristic of the area or not?

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.

Yes, because Vietnam=China :thumbsup:

I dont think they stole it, it sounds diferent to me :shocked2:

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?

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?

Haha, omg, Viva La Vida all over again. But what are the odds, it sounds really similar.

Strikingly similar... I was not expecting it.

wow... how come they are so similar

 

and is this me or Lost also has similar beats with this vietnamese song (at 1:20) lol

Princess of China: Song of Vietnam?

 

Thought this was a catchier thread title...

I don't think it's coincidence. Maybe they thought no one would ever find out.

You guys have to be kidding me. For all we know he could have stolen that melody from this.

 

 

or he could just not have stolen it at all. :rolleyes:

I think the origin song is a old song of Cambodia :p

Yes, because Vietnam=China :thumbsup:

 

The Sud-asia sector

I'd take this seriously if this weren't the most obscure song ever...

 

How would they have ever heard it?!
