The Highly Original RHCP

[Ox Fox]

The Red Hot Chili Peppers have been accused of plagiarism by a radio station in America.

The station, WGMD in Delaware, has produced pretty damning evidence that the bands last single ‘Dani California’ is a rip off of a Tom Petty track.

The song in question is Petty’s 90’s hit ‘Mary Jane’s Last Dance’ and the radio stations Morning Show presenter and producer have alleged the plagiarism.

Producer Jared Morris said: “The chord progression, the melody, the tempo, the key, the lyrical theme… they’re identical.”

I noticed yesterday how much nonsense RHCP lyrics are.
They are just lists of locations

Gettin' born in the state of Mississippi
Poppa was a copper and her momma was a hippie
In Alabama she was swinging hammer
Price you gotta pay when you break the panorama
She never knew that there was anything more than poor
What in the world does your company take me for?

Only one book on the RHCP tour bus

yes some of them are a bunch of crap-but then songs like under the bridge are not.

there is a slight resemblance but i think its a bit far to claim that its a complete rip off.

Twin Peaks had connotations and themes, RHCP not.

Please do not compare an artist's work to a paupers.

they should bring twin peaks back ! maybe rhcp could do the theme music!

They'd probably rip off the music again and these would be the lyrics:

Don't go to Twin Peaks
It's full of low down dirty freaks
And when she had the cherry pie
All he could do was cry
Back in the woods it all got nasty
The log lady and a cornish pasty

'Falling' is a great song

Especially in the hands of David Lewis Gedge

Must admit I don't know who did the original and I'm only going by WP's version

sorry to bring this thread up but ox did you acutally realise the song which is supposed to have been plagerised was speeded up to sound more like it?

if you play Dani California backwards, just before the second chorus it goes (very quietly in the background)

little gloves
little gloves
how I love you my little gloves
shall I take my shirt off and worship the devil
or wear my cocksock and pretend I'm a rebel
