There are similarities in the general sound and beat of the song, but anyone can hear a clear difference between the two songs. It's nothing like today where people sample songs and claim it as their own. Huey Lewis, love his music and talent, really should of looked at it as a compliment. Obviously some inspiration was taken from his song but you don't own a sound and Ray Parker Jr. didn't steal any riffs or lyrics.

Yes he stole the basic idea. But he made another great song out of it. Genius steals. The Jaws theme is stolen from classical music. Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, one of those guys. you know the duuh duh, duuh duh. There are only so many note and chord progressions. That is finite, To all the songwriters out there, steal like a mfer if you can build a better song. the world will thank you for it. to all the originators, you should have thought of the possibilities. but get paid
@rowellbeej01 theres nothing genius about ray parker jr. stole basic idea? its a damn near note for note copy and was done so intentionally. im sure even mr wilde would agree that it might not be smart to live life based on 150yr old quotes, or we'd all be in trouble. so to all those real artists/songwriters out there, thank the originators for the insperation and pay them tribute by continue to do something new with the chord progressions, and avoid "advise" with the words "get paid" in it
@jmdodo1 agreed. it was also said that they tried to get Huey to get to do the song but he didnt want to and so they asked this guy ray jr. to do it emulating hueys style
@10kreider I wish those idiotic "Christians" who call Halloween and witchcraft "Satanic" would just get lost, preferably take a long jump off this planet and form their own world "Christopia" where they won't be annoying anyone else with their legalistic shit.
@Battery20678 actually mad magazine did a little bit of a spoof on that. They had a little 3 panel comic. The first panel had 3 ghosts from hogwarts just talking. The second panel showed them scared and running away from something and the third panel showed the ghostbusters entering hogwarts
XD I love on Halloween at my school. We all go to the gymnasium and just dance ^.^ My cousin Holly screamed at the gym teacher "PLAY THRILLLLER!!!!!!!" And it was so funny XD And they played this instead
who ya gonna call? 118!! lol no seriously i hate 118 for copying that. the gay pricks!!! anyway. this song rocks. even though the guys from ghostbusters didn't invent the song, its still good.
Haha well at least you aren't alone, the 2 people above you got -6 and the guy above them even got spammed, apparently the people of youtube are very picky about their humor.
You know, the term 'twat' is considered pretty offensive too - it kind of kills your argument when you whine about one offensive word, and use another.
Well, some people just deserve an insult. That, I'm ok with. But using an insult that is offensive to people other than the well-deserving target, such as 'faggot' or 'gay'? That's just stupid. And mean to whoever else it affects.
Please help me. My wife likes Ghostbusters 2 better than one. Its still good but nothing can or will be better than the original. What should I do?
