  • I am the eye in the sky, looking at you, I can read your mind.

    Yep, it's plagerism.

  • i think everyone at one time or another has felt this wayyy..i love it! ;)

  • Just because one article mentioned this song sounding like another, everybody has to dis this song now? So just because someone said it sounds like something else, everybody decides that they hate it?

    This is great music.

  • @ICDave Take something that already exists, change a minimum of three things that make it what it is, and presto, you have something clearly your own. Trouble is, no one wants to see or in this case hear it.

    Heck, I'm gonna be taking a traditional Banana Bread and changing it around. Adding things to it to make it a truly original taste sensation. Who says it just has to be bananas and walnuts. I gonna bring something new to it.

  • @ICDave Oh, and I also noticed the people getting upset are probably of the same sort that think the songs from Glee are original. Especially when they are just covering better versions of such titles.

  • APP needs his money now ow ow....

  • great song but same beat and almost same melody as alan parsons eye in the sky

  • waka waka i can't tell the difference and for everyone to sit there and actually listen to similarities should get laid..

  • This Isnt Country Music, Or Pop Music, Its soft rock, But hardly original, Nothing spectacular, But Its Like a Lot OF "Modern Music"

  • I thought there was something familiar when I first heard this (LA) song; just couldn't place it. Whether intentional or not, there is something there. Sure, some resemblence to my ear. Intentional or coincidental? But I've been a music fan most of my life, and I remember APP, even if not a fan. The LA song is ok as well.

  • i think Alan Parsons is a little short on cash, and i am a big fan of APP always have been but this is a stretch

  • i think Alan Parsons is a little short on cash, and i am a big fan of APP always have been but this is a stretch

  • Need You Now is so much different from the APP song. Listen to the beginning of each, that alone tells you something. Plus, how many people really remember that 1982 song of Alan Parsons? Sure, I remember it once this has blown up, but come on! This is nuts! Lady A did nothing wrong and if the APP camp decides to truly go after them for their song, they need their heads examined because neither of the song is the same in any way! NONE WHATSOEVER!

  • For the people who say NYN is a ripoff must know nothing about music.

  • @carolinagirl009 Or  Have a Biased oppinion?

  • I like APP, but the chorus only vaguely sounds like Eye In The Sky. If it hadn't already been suggested, I never would've made that connection. This isn't like when Vanilla Ice ripped off Queen.

  • I love this song :)))) 8-)

  • it's a quarter after one, I'm a little drunk and I need you now sounds a little better than, it's 1:15, I'm trashed & horny, can we kick it?

  • @maddisangelgirl I coudnt have said it beter myself....LOL....Stil a grate song.

  • it's a quarter after one, I'm a little drunk and I need you now sounds a little better than, it's 1:15, I'm trashed & horny, can we kick it?

  • God, I love the sound of his voice...~

  • its kewl dat deres some talent left dese days i dont think dey copied..atleast dey didnt do it intentionally it COULD be a coincidence

  • I wonder if The Alan Parsons Project is considering suing....

  • @throbb1 There is no need sue. Lady A did not rip them off. Yeah there are some similarties, but they are competely different. In music it is possible to use the same chords that are used in other songs and not doing it on purpose. I don't see Lady A the kind of people to rip off other artist. Hillary grew up in the music industy and I'm sure she would never try to rip someone off.

  • I think it is a great video-it sends you in a different direction

  • All you have to do is put some twangy guitar into any song these days and it's a country song.

  • disappointing video. hoped for better. oh well, still good song...

  • this video is disappointing to the song.

  • @americanreeses96

    r u kidding me? this video is perfect. it tells the story of someone who can't contain themselves, leaving behind their ego, to find the lover they can't live without.

  • People who unlike this song are really dumb. Its like the best song on the billboard chart.

  • Need You Now is a good hook up song. But I love it. Its my favorite song.

  • APP FTW!!! 

  • lol it's so confusing when they arrive at this 'gathering,' and the lead singers both have startled faces like they're looking at each other with loving looks from the distance! ...but it wasn't lol

  • This video makes both my eyes and ears uncomfortable. The video's flaws are obvious with its confusing plotline and connecting points. With the audio, I wish her accent was a little more heavy. Beautiful music even with the obvious take from Eye in the Sky. I like what they did with notes, I only wish the voices were stronger.

  • This song sucks. Is this really Country music??????

  • @kpend21 What this song does not suck, far from it. It's best song of 2010 by a long shot. It is country music.

  • APP bout to get "PAID" Lady Antebellum is about to CTC....CUT THE CHECK!

  • Alan Parsons called, he wants his song back.

  • @pilotpwr lol

  • eww not the song i was looking for... this sucks.... to me anyway

  • PS.... J BIEBER RULES ALL OF YOUR FAT ASSES!!!!

  • Lame song... but I don't think it's a rip-off of Eye in the Sky. I mean, c'mon... most pop songs are written with only slight variations of the same four chords.

  • This isn't even close to a rip-off of Eye in the Sky, if you read the article with the mash-up and listen to it, the pitch is so horribly altered in Lady A's version that it's obvious it was deliberately done to make it sound like the APP song. Give me a break, folks. Have an original thought for once rather than jumping on the bandwagon of someone bored enough to pick out a faintly similar thread from both songs. I can take any song and find a similarity to another based on a melody.

  • Funny. This is not a country song, not by a long shot. But these days if you're over 30 and making something with a Jackson Browne, Eagles, Fleetwood Mac type of sound, they call it country. This is rock. Weird biz these days.

  • @jjoel007 Thats why I only listen to clasic Country.

  • It is so irritating when you got a good up and coming artist get blasted because they won a few awards , because their song might sound a tad similar to a song from the 80's get over it already. Both were good songs and both are totally different. Also Zxer91, this is not even close to a blatent rip-off , blatent rip-off would be Lynard Skynard ripping off Warewolf of London with Sweet Home Alabama, then ripped off by Kid Rock...with Singing Sweet Home Alabama All summer long..

  • Freaking ignorant idiots, think this is remotely close to Eye in the Sky, totally different songs, there is maybe one or two parts that are remotely similar, thats about it. Listen to Eye in the sky and this one with out tempo and pitch changes that Yahoo tried to feed you. A bunch of garbage and you sheep lap it up, and beleive it.

  • just because you bend a couple notes in the guitar part doesn't mean its a country song. this isn't bad, but its not country either

  • i honestly don't hear the similarities between need you now and eye in the sky...but thats just my opinion. this song is clearly better.

  • I actually think THIS song's JUST OKAY. But, I can't STAND the chick's voice. Think it's flatter than flat pop.

  • Ok, the chorus part does sound a little like it, I'll admit that. But, why do ppl have to be all in an uproar about this? Honestly, does anything really belong to us? It's funny how ppl are all this is mine, mine, mine-I made this and now you gotta pay me millions of dollars because your chorus line sounds similar to mine. It's stupid and I can't believe ppl waste their time getting angry about. Hey, take your millions you won and feed the homeless!

  • Comment removed

  • it does sound familiar but im only 11 so what do i know

  • STOLEN SONG........... tune is so 80's!!!!!!!!!!

  • I don't think this song is a direct ripoff of Eye in the Sky. I never noticed any similarity, and even after reading that article, I can't say i hear it. The article made it sound like they'd "sampled" directly from the song, like whichever song that is that rips DIRECTLY from "No Can Do" by Hall and Oates. Or what about that Kid Rock song that has the hook from Werewolves of London in it?

    I'm not a fan - didn't even know who these people are. Get over it.

  • STOLEN SONG...........

  • Boring boring boring

  • mi friend - our song!!! hahaha i'm drunk and I need you now

  • It's vaguely similar to the APP song, but not enough to call it a rip off.

  • Blatant rip-off of Alan Parsons Eye in the Sky.

  • @zxer91 Not so blatant. Blatant would be direct use of the actual MUSIC. As was the case with Vanilla Ice. Kid Rock did it. Hall and Oates was directly ripped off a couple of years ago - can't remember the name of the song but every time I hear it i THINK they're playing "No Can Do" from 1981. THAT is blatant.

  • @zxer91 did you come up with that all by yourself mr big brain

  • Totally ripped off from the Alan Parsons Project " Eye in the Sky" They better save their pennies. They will be paying out like Vanilla Ice did only bigger. So friggen obvious this music was stolen.

  • i wouldnt mind jizzing all over the singer's face and tits then cock slapping her. she looks like a dirty whore that needs it.

  • @kevin31287 I'll join in the fun with ya.

  • it sounds like APP's "Eye In The Sky

  • @thesneak44

    Really??? I thought it sounds like Lady Antebellum's-Need You Now smash hit all over the world.

  • this song has been out for a while, and when the news reports that they may have ripped it off, or borrowed it EVERYONE seems to comment "omg they took the lyrics" blah blah blah.. couple months ago you couldn't have given 2 shits... so shut the fuck up everyone saying "lyrics are bit". There IS NOT A SONG OUT TODAY THAT DOESN'T NOT CONTAIN SOMETHING ORIGINAL IN IT.. EVERYTHING GETS REHASHED FUCKING LIVE WITH IT RETARDS.

  • @HEADSHOTTHEORYclan Do you have any clue what a double negative is? Doesn't not is a great example of it. By the way the issue is not the lyrics its the blatent ripoff of the melody line from an Alan Parson's Project song. All fans of music ask for is original scores when an artist is taking credit. If Lady Antebellum was at least up front about their usage of someone elses melody line it might have been more well received.

  • I was wondering why I liked the tune, heard it back in the 80s (Eye in the sky)- dont care for the lyrics though- nothing but a drunken booty call song..

  • :( this song reminds me of my ex and the worst part is that we've been broken up for a year and four months...man time flies and i hate that i still think about her at times..

  • The chorus is almost exactly the same as eye in the sky

  • @spankingbass1 I was thinking that just as I was scrolling down and found your comment.

  • the piano is so perfect !!!

  • the background music of this is ripped off from eye in the sky by the alan parsons project

  • i love youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

  • i lo ve you

  • People who dislike this song are stupied

  • I love this song so much. Its my ringtone. Its my favortie song.

  • Fucking video won't play! And i keep choking for some reason! *cough* *cough*

  • good song, sounds like alan parsons-eye in the sky

  • This song makes me sing along too it. Its an amazing song. Its probabley the best song in the world :)

  • i`like

  • Sugarland fans are terrible boring. But Lady Antebellum fans are truely amazing :)

  • im loving this song

  • Such a great song

  • BEAUTIFUL WORDS IN THIS SONG!

    ~~~~LOVE~~~~PAIN~~~~~

  • Its so generic. Without the lyrics, it would be mocked as one of worst songs of the year. The music is absolutely wretched, and the male voices are horrible. Whoever wrote this should be given a fucking medal. He made gold out of shit.

  • So many memories.........! :( ever get the feeling that no one cares about u and u just wana jump off a cliff?? well this prevents me from doing that! love it!

  • this song never gets old

  • I'm a Lady Antebellum fan they are my favorite band in country. I love this song its my favorite song. I didnt like it before but scents Ive been listening too it I love it.

  • I'm not a Lady Antebellum fan but this song is so me and my man's song... I need him now!!!

  • 45 jealous Sugarland fans lol

  • Love this song......reminds me of my ex and I....especially 'I wonder if I ever cross your mind,for me it happens all the time!'

  • Oh wat mooi... het liedje van mijn vriendje en mij!!

  • this song fits me.....there is man i see everyday and we both hve someone but man the thing i feel i shudnt....

  • this is exactly how I feel right now...*cries*

  • she soundz lyk taylor swift!!!!!<3

  • You know, I really don't hear a country band in this song

  • @haukka1987 Yea honestly this is hardly Country music, however its still an amazing song.

  • @haukka1987 I respectfully disagree. This has all of the earmarks of a country song. It's not as "twangy," thank goodness, as most textbook country songs are, but it IS indeed COUNTRY. And incredibly awesome.

  • absosmurfly! love this song!!! it fits almost anyones situation...lost love.........crush...whatever it fits

  • @msbeerluver73 hella ya i knw wat ya mean...ssshhhh 

  • Memories, memories- late nite, kitchen floor, drinks, cigars, and love.. good times

  • this is so amazing and good, loved the video

  • alcoholic synonymous song lol; love the tune

  • it's so cool and makes me feel good everytime hearing on car

  • This song reminds me of Dan Seals and Marie Osmund; Meet me in Montana.

    It has great vocal and tunes.

    They will go far.

  • The chorus totally rips off the '80s song "Eye In The Sky" by the Alan Parsons Project

  • @ferdblivid - I like to think I have a pretty good ear for music... and I've heard both songs individually and simultaneously... and I don't see how you think they ripped from Eye in the Sky. I'll listen to it again...

  • @ferdblivid no way!

  • this song if amizzinng !!

  • I liked this better the first time it was done... by Alan Parsons. "The Eye in the Sky" as it was originally called. What a rip off.

    

  • im sorry but this song is pathetic on the girls part. how much weaker can one be? really??

    I DEDICATE THIS SONG

    Love always -

  • i love the bass in the song but its not really in this vid! great song though!

  • need you now and hello world are my favorite lady a songs

  • This song was one of the best country song of the yr. This song was a huge hit all over the world. This song hit across all stations on radio and tv. This song hit the mainstream real big which gave country music a big boost up in the charts in the top 20 charts. I am not that big on country music but I think that this was one of the best country song I've ever heard in country music. I like Taylor Swift and Carrie Underwood also. But nothing could compete to this song here.

  • love thiz sonq and i even love the guy who sinqs with her thiz sonq is the best ever i love love love thiz amazinqq sonq ahhh

  • love it

  • One of the best songs ever!

  • One of the best songs ever!

  • check out MyzKaraEvans version

  • wow now country has emo music too

  • @chadhoganlive what?!

  • this video is a rip off of "Hate How Much I Love You" by Rihanna and Neyo but i still love the song!

  • nashville country music always appear awesome singers ,excellent songs lyrics:)

  • This Song is just a nice ride. Hooks you with the first lyric. Very nice

  • this song makes me cry :'( its so pretty!

  • brilliant song

  • This song = my life story.

    Lady Antebellum ftw.

  • Let's just say, Country music is not my cup of tea. But this song is more like a pop song than the typical country song. And I just couldn't get it out of my head.

  • @56deepwood This song is more like country pop song. I think country and pop do mix and thats the reason why country and pop music is on the rise today. Shit everywhere I go now today I see Taylor Swift t shirts and Lady Gaga's t shirts and cd's for sale.

  • I love this song. This is my boy friends and my song. It rocks. My daughter is 5 and she loves this song as well. Every time i play it she sings along to it.

  • Comment removed

  • i love this freakin song. so many things rush to mind

  • the guy looks like a straight lance bass

  • This song has a haunting melody and I have to wonder if the writer sunconsciously still clings to the memory of the vocal parts in the "Eye in the Sky" by the Alan Parsons Project. Pull that song up (from 1982) and see if you can hear the melody which appears again in this song.

  • @robberbaron826 Yes, I was thinking that too when I heard this song! Wow! Yep, "Eye in the Sky" --it's there, especially in the chorus <3

  • @robberbaron826 Yes, I was thinking that too when I heard this song! Wow! Yep, "Eye in the Sky" --it's there, especially in the chorus!

  • OI! THATS MY PHONE AT 0:17 !!! :D

  • this is a beautiful song, they  play it at the club i go to all the time in ft worth texas.

  • I love this song. The guy who sings with her is hot.

  • Not a fan of country music but i really LOVE this song

  • Comment removed

  • this is such a awesome song and video

  • great video

  • I love this song!!!

  • I freakin luv this song....

  • the sound quality sucks great song the guy who sings with her ooh his voice is so damn sexxy!

  • @mlavon2002

    Right thats wat im saying !!!! =)

  • seriously lady antebellum and taylor swift sound so much alike, first time i heard this song, thought it was T.S but i was kinda happy it was someone else, cuz taylor makes juss a lil too much songs like this, which kinda makes her predictable.

  • and I love Taylor Swift but I think she sounds better than Taylor in this song. I dont see how people think she sounds like her here. sorry!

  • @Darlenevirgo almost every song does that so anoying, they just can't hear it. taylor swift also sounded like kesha, pixie lott, hilary duff and kelly clarkson by the songs i came past.luckly someone's hearing it :)

  • I dont get this video. doesnt match the lyrics to me? Maybe I am looking at it differently. Whats your interpretation of the lyrics?

  • I like so much this song because it seems like there is something of my life .No doubt sets in the first 10 songs to my list .

  • Sadly I can relate to this song. beautiful as it is

  • Didn't they both get the wrong people? i mean look at there face how can they not notice that there hanging out with different girl/boy? this music is so CONFUSING! but love it anyways ^^

  • i love her smile at around 3:56.

  • i miss uu so much.

  • I agree with RockerChick1052, but there are songs of all genre's that transend certain things about the music that just moves us. Beautifully done, and I really like the guitar in this one even though it has the country twang (supposed too). This song along with 1000 miles (from Dwight Yaokam) are awesome.

  • Im not usually into this type of music.. Im usually into metal and rock.. but good lord I'm addicted to this song!

  • miss you

  • not a big fan of this kind of music but this is a very good song. the lyrics are so good.

  • Hillary is looking so gorgeous right now.
