Just heard a part of a tune on the radio that sounded eerily similar to Abie Rottenberg's "there's a small piece of heaven in everyone's heart". Anyone know what I'm talking about?

FTFY

Heard a bit of a song on the radio that sounded exactly like "Someday" by MBD... Anyone know what I'm talking about? It began with the words "There was a house....", I didn't get the rest.

Would be shocked if Dina Storch stole it.

Highly doubtful. She says all the time that Daddy Dear is a secular song. So she would have no problem saying if Someday was. And she says that it's her original.

shlonx · « **Reply #164 on:** September 27, 2015, 09:45:48 AM »

Maybe, like with Mordche's Shir Hashalom, she thought of the lyrics, not the tune. Because it was identical to Someday, down to the krechtz by the "When iiiiiiin walked the soldiers" part...

YitzyS · « **Reply #165 on:** September 27, 2015, 10:11:04 AM »

That was the case with Daddy Dear. She says that she was given the song 45 minutes before a concert and was asked to quickly make new lyrics, which she did. But regarding Someday, she says that the tune is also her own original. She has absoluly no reason to lie. Maybe the Goy stole it from her. ;-)

Quote from Yossi Green's Wikipedia page:

While studying at the Manchester Yeshivah in 1973, Green began to write his own songs. During this time he heard Roberta Flack's "Killing Me Softly with His Song" playing from a passing car, and it inspired him to write his own version of soul music, "Kol Berama", which was featured on a Pirchei London album under the direction of Yigal Calek and became an international hit.

Upload to vimeo/YouTube privately and link here?

Although it is not the same song, "Tzuzamen" on the new Yoily Greenfeld CD is eerily similar to the classic "Those Were the Days" from the '60s.

Has anybody mentioned the John Legend "all of me" ripoff on the new OHAD cd. Although in that case they arent even trying to deny anything being that its still a pretty popular song today

Are you talking about the one that he actually credits John Legend as the composer of the song?

HowYaDoin · « **Reply #176 on:** December 23, 2015, 10:55:10 AM »

In that case it's not a ripoff, thanks for letting me know.
...pretty apropo name though, no need to attack
