Carly Rae Jepsen & Owl City Sued For Alleged Copyright Infringement On “Good Time”

Carly Rae Jepsen and Owl City are being sued for allegedly copying the hook in their hit song “Good Time,” according to Billboard. Alabama-based singer-songwriter Allyson Nichole Burnett claims the two acts copied a prominent vocal pattern from her 2010 song “Ah, It’s A Love Song” - basically, the “whoa-oh-oh” hook.

Burnett’s legal team says the “unique vocal motif” is repeated in the song and “has a catchy pop vibe that both draws people in and sticks in people’s heads.” If brain-burrowing sequences of ohs are copyright-protected all of a sudden, then no pop artist is safe and CHAOS WILL REIGN. At least, that’s our take. Hear the relevant sections of both songs below, and see if you think Burnett has a case.

Do you think Carly and Owl City are copycats? Let us know in the comments below, or on Facebook and Twitter.

Ashlee Simpson’s “Bat For A Heart”: Preview Her Comeback Track

A Halloween Surprise

Ashlee Simpson turned out an unexpected Halloween treat this evening (October 31) when she premiered a teaser of her new video and single, the oh-so-spooky “Bat For A Heart.” As announced on her newly revamped official website, the song will be released with an accompanying video on November 21.

As for the song, it’s weird and shadowy, evoking - among other things - Kavinsky‘s “Nightcall” from the Drive soundtrack, with squelchy synths and thudding bass. “I’m gonna bang bang, fuck you up / Twist you out inside of my head,” she sings over the eerie track. Simpson has never been a trailblazer, musically, but when it comes to following and refining sonic trends, she’s the best in the business - and “Bat For A Heart” promises to be a worthy entrant in the canon of dark, moody pop that currently dominates the airwaves. Listen up top.
