LOL I'm just wondering just what you are trying to prove with these videos. If you had any knowledge of musical history, you would know that almost 90% of the music produced since the mid 90s has not been original anymore. ESPECIALLY DJ FOOD and similar NINJATUNE artists are renowned for SAMPLING all their tracks together. So your point is really nullified by using them as an example as sampling can be considered "stealing" as well. Sorry, but you're an idiot for wasting your time on this. LMAO
You guys are leaving your love for what she did and cowboy bebop to get in front of your brains. Look at the video again, those are EXACT copies. She really did copycat those songs. That's called plagiarism. I love the music, I hear it I have the CDs from cowboy bebop (original, don't know how many of you guys can say that) and I support what she does. But I know she copy songs from other artists. Personally, I don't care. But my opinion (or yours) doesn't change the fact she copied.
@hulksjedi They are covers. Not copies. :I If you were well educated you would know the facts that come with that term. And the majority of her music isn't 'copied', it's purely original. So stop bad mouthing her. She's ripping off no one!!! If you feel this is heinous then you should just spend your time elsewhere talking shit about every movie/show that uses Beethoven's moonlight as a renewed score. :I
@ariaceXD Only everyone knows to whom Moonlight Sonata belongs as well as it's usually clearly addressed somewhere by people 'renewing it', while these comparisons always induce some level of shock and disbelief, as it seems that there's no information whatsoever that those are covers, nor original authors are mentioned anywhere else. Basically, everyone thinks it's original Yoko Kanno music, which is just plain unfair.
nah shes still awesome.She even rips off with impeccable taste.
btw, but I was under the impression that the cowboy bebop soundtrack was supposed to be an homage to classic styles of music... Just look at the the episode titles...and the name of the Anime. I make "original" rip off music as a job (copyright free), and its cool to see how OCCASIONALLY shes made existing songs sound way more awesome. I deeply appreciate her skills.
The people who are accusing Yoko Kanno of being a bad composer because of stuff like this are probably the same people who yell at point at hip-hop artists who use samples and get angry when an artist doing a cover song doesn't give credit to the original artist right on the title. Any musician who's actually a musician FOR THE MUSIC shouldn't mind if someone uses their work for their own purposes. Yoko Kanno is a fantastic composer, stop acting like middle school girls with skinned knees.
"In terms of style," every musician is inspired by other musicians. If you want to talk about "plagiarism," look up the Pachelbel rant, and you'll see how just one piece of music has influenced several different genres. As a musician myself, I'm working on a piece that has very similar sound to La Grange, by ZZ Top, and I would call it inspired rather than copied. If Yoko Kanno has been copying music, why hasn't there been a lawsuit?
im not saying she is not stealing, cuz like moust ppl she probably is, but the dj food thing was an agreement on bouth parts, and the "on the run" is obviously a cover, for fucks sakes it even has the same name, still its sad to learn she is not as a good composer as i thought she was
Oh, my god. Im so upset. I thought Yoko was so original, its obvious that she did more than get inspired on others music. She almost exactly copied the songs. What a shame. What a shame.
As far as I can tell, those must be the people who helped influence her music.. If you want to call it "plagiarizing," then you're going to need to sue every band who came out after 1989, because "originality" isn't so original anymore, especially after 2001. Give me a break!! Just let the lady make music and stop harassing her!!
@jabbarman04 That's true, but she should at least acknowledge who she was influenced by, the only time I think I've heard of her addressing a similarity is "On The Run".
That said, this is clearly not plagarism. If works of this kind were considered plagarism then every choral piece ever written since "O Fortuna" would be plagarism as well, not to mention all the 12-bar blues songs in the same key, same instruments, same chord progression...

The part where you talked about Be human Good by my master sounds more like Ave Maria (which a lot of anime have used or copied) than Escape by Craig Armstrong.
Yeah i don't think she would have just blatantly stolen a piece of music. no one is that stupid. she is an arranger and i think a lot of the credit in the titles has been removed.
Oooh, sorry, I forgot to say "the conga drums!" Ha ha ha! She didn't even bother altering the lyrics...what a lazy, unimaginative, sly, plaigiarizing, pseudo-composer theif.
Sampling, sampling, sampling. I hate it when people defend this bitch (Kanno) with "sampling". It's theft, since Kanno only seems to "sample" all the time. All that hard work from original artists only to be sampled by some pseudo-composer...hell, I'll be pissed off. Plaigiarism [full stop]
Yeah, sure. Yoko Kanno is a thief, Led Zeppelin's lyrics are satanic and Paul is dead. Don't make me laugh. This is the kind of stuff they always say when great artists appear.
some of her fans are really crazy. It's okay cus her version is better? she have stolen fuckin many songs from others, they are victims. how can you say that? then if your friend steal your clothes and she looks more great with your clothes on than you, then is it okay and it becomes her clothes? wow
@BFitzroy Exactly, they don't. Can all those commenting on this video and others attacking Kanno of being a thief really be so naive? Do you not all think she would have been legally pursued by now? Give me a fucking break. The industry isn't so blind [or should that be deaf?].
There shouldn't be an argument that she stole or not because we do not know for sure that how she made those songs. What do you wanna say by this video?
She might have paid for the right to use these songs and at this point, you had better not say "Yoko Kanno's got some serious stealing going on." This is just a time consuming and meaningless argument.
After watching these two parts i can just say im heartbroken by Kanno, i dont know how people still praise her as an incredible composer who is able to do lots of styles and different arrangements in her head. come on ITS NOT in her head, its in every artist in this world's head, she just goes around ripping off anything.
Copyright law is bullshit, most other industrialised countries dont bother with it, free information for all is the only way to go anyone who cares about who gets credit for what is a sad individual.
If people can't afford information I'm all for them just taking a copy -- but selling someone else's work as your own is sleazy and greedy as hell. Charging people for someone else's work is just sick. Really good art is agonizing to make, without copyright law all we'd have is abstract art somebody (sometimes literally) crapped out in 5 minutes.
That said, these have got to be credited covers or something. These things can't have flown under the radar, she'd have gotten sued into oblivion.
Yoko Kanno worked with DJ Food on some of the Cowboy Bebop songs. He(she?) even contributed a remix of Tank! (The Power of Kung FOOD Remix) to one of the albums. I think Mushroom Hunting might actually be a commissioned arrangement.
Also, as YokoTheBest explained, things can often be mislabeled. Just because a file says it's solely by Yoko Kanno doesn't mean it wasn't credited on the album itself.
I find it funny that many people don't notice this little fact....how do they know it's plagiarism? It's very possible that these songs are given credit where due.
No. I have many of these albums by Yoko Kanno, and nowhere in the liner notes does any of the original authors get credited. I most particularly looked for credits to Craig Armstrong and Laurent Voulzy (because they're the ones who led me to realize all of this), and never found ANY. :(
My, Wikipedia Japan does say she won awards for the CBBB and GITS soundtracks. But it doesn't mention the plagiarism criticism anywhere. Is she protected by some higher power?
@Locodiablogato None of the albums cite other sources or even so much has inspiration. There are copies of CD sleeves that can be downloaded; Yoko Kanno composes all of it, apparently *roles eyes*.
Oh and by the way... some of the comparitions you´ve posted are just similar by instrumentation, tonality or time beat... that is not plagiarism, in that case every piece written in D Mayor-4/4-Allegro with quarter notes by rhythm is plagiarism; or in other possibility, the same chord progression (a common thing in music), and it does not means plagiarism: As example: "Truman Sleeps" by Phillip Glass and "Everyday" by Carly Commando, same chord progression but not plagiarism and both beautiful
Well... Mushroom hunting is credited by DjFood in the album, Yoko is the arranger; some others music is sometimes credited to her ´cause... SHE IS A GENIUS!!! Try to get classical threw internet and you get "Moonlight Sonata" by Mozart, you can´t just trust every info you take from quick internet search, it is an interesting uploaded video this one, but in the words you´re putting it in it´s not really fair or impartial.
lol mushroom hunting didn't sound like it's counterpart until the second part haha I have to give you that one . . . however, most of these are just similar stylistically rather than by notes . . . as in a million people did songs similiar to that one that had a choir with industrial beats. No one said she was a complete original but that doesn't mean she's ripping people off. I agree about the Pink Floyd tribute idea if she was ripping them off you'd think she'd be more clever about it.
Come on now, on the run? I think she used that song as a tribute to pink floyd considering its the same exact name! You think she would be sued for that but obviously not because most people are smart enough to see that...
I'm sure many disagree with you there, considering your rating. But I'll elaborate. Kanno's work is considered seminal to a series, and it nearly always stands out. If you watched some of the anime, you'd notice that.
I would agree with the idea that Yoko's doing cover's or hommages if I didn't just hear the soundtrack for Darker than Black: there's a theme in that that is exactly the same as a theme in Great Expectations by Patrick Doyle - and that is way too obscure a soundtrack to cover or do a hommage to, it's just plain copying. I am crushed by this actually - Yoko was my hero :(.
I was all ready to freak out over this, but most of these are coincidences... and she credits Pink Floyd and DJ Food in the liner notes, apparently. Most of the obvious song comparisons are coming from the stuff in Cowboy Bebop, which makes perfect sense: the whole series is built off of stylistic homages to older movies and music. (Example: Pierrot le Fou = The Penguin from Batman.)
I'm not sure about it being coincidences. How about the first example? Even the said words "Conga drums" are exactly the same. The notes are the same, only transposed. What about the second sample, where country names are said in both songs?
I understand that Yoko has many projects of great variations in style, and so she has to take from songs, but at least give credit when it's due, or at least put more effort in making it your own song. The first two samples here are damning, IMO.
I want to start by saying that Kanno is an AMAZING artist; Kannos ability to compose in so many different styles makes me think I would go mad having all these different arrangements going round my head.
Having said that here are a few "similarities I have noticed; near the end of Call Me- The Verves Bittersweet Symphony (from The Stones The Last Time). Living Inside the Shell about two minutes in you a tune that is very like Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds The Beetles or Elton John.
The beginning of Ask DNA is unmistakably the start of Carly Simons Youre so vain, lastly about 20 secs into the song Yakitori its clearly the beginning of Roundabout by Yes.Even if you only hear a few secs you cannot deny the similarities, of the songs I have listed.
Its almost like they are little salutes to the original artists.
This doesnt take away from how much I love Kanno and I still think shes brilliant but lets call a spade a spade and give credit where its due.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
she didn't do it on accident, she did it because the artist gave her permission to make the similar songs for the anime. They are slightly altered intentionally.
Wow, I have to say I'm a bit shocked this is allowed, what with plagiarism being a career-ending move. Maybe it's just in America though, but there is no doubt this is plagiarism. Regardless I still like her music and will listen to it.
You know what? I still love Yoko Kanno's music, regardless of how "similar" it sounds to someone else's. I agree with NoobAntichrist. You can find similar songs everywhere--which gives us listeners more variety, to pick the version WE like the best.
I will have to say, despite that these songs are ripped, Yoko still puts her own taste of music. You can always tell its her because of the instruments she uses. I guess there is where she earns her fans.
Most of these are just amazing how similar they sound, but the din don dan dan one isn' stealing in my opinion, the other song didn't sound like it and the only similarities was the Irish intruments.
i would agree with you. you'll be surprised to find how many songs are constructed the same way (even the lyrics) for instance, the first song, i have one song in choir JUST like that, it's a very popular thing to do in the music world.
The irish one sounds similar because of the set instruments normally used, as well as standard chord progressions.
The makers of this vid are freaking smart. I would never have spotted similarities like this. But when you compare them you don't even need to be a musician to know that it sounds dentical.
and i agree with you drvagrant when you say "Fuck honesty and legit shit if people can get rich by ripping off others Im jumping ship 2 " look at Led Zepplein, they stole from a lot of people and got fucking rich.
It's one thing to steal the lyrics, another to steal the music, but another thing entirely to steal the music and the lyrics! This is brave of you to do here because of Kanno's protected 'authentic' status (A.K.A not one of the godless West).
It isn't stealing, she's mostly paying homage or doing what most composers do - sample and reuse music. It's not fair to blame her soley, a lot of composers do it to show their respect for other artist.
But Yoko Kanno did a lot of music... there are inspired ones and other more personal. Beauty within the shell from Gits sounds like Kiss from a rose by Seal but it's pretty diferent as well.
I don't think japanese composers have no talent. This is a ridiculous way to think ( "oh do you come from that country ? You're such a useless guy/girl." this is really rude and racist )... To the people who think like this I say : go listen Joe Hisaishi, Nobuo Uematsu or Yasunori Mitsuda for example.
Interesting. Honestly, I'm a "little" disapointed too. Well, you know... I though Yoko Kanno did her music on her own (except songs like Ave Maria of course, this is clearly a reprise ). She is inspired by other artists, I understand... art is : inspiring to create new things. But, there are some songs that are almost identical ( Mushroom Hunting ).
I understand why people say it is "homage" to music or simply inspiration but if she never mentioned any of those groups anywhere, she is being unfair and a liar. Also, how many Yoko fans people will actually hear the songs she "homaged"?
That's a little riddle for intelligent people- to find what inspiration she finds. Also, anyone with basic musical knowledge knows this isn't plagiarism. Know that old joke?
A guy studying music was about to write his dissertation, not knowing what to write. His friend advised him to simply write his professor's own dissertation backwards. After a while the friend asked him if the final musical piece turned out good. It turned out great. Exactly the same as Bethoven's IXth Symphony.
You're misinterpreting what she said. And don't be so quick to fling out the word bitch if you don't know what you're talking about. Yoko did comment that she doesn't listen to RECENT music; most of the songs she has homaged are old.
She gives credit through the titles, by putting parts of the original creators names in there, or titling it something in relation to the creator. I really think you, and the person who posted this video, should do some research on Yoko Kanno and her work before you all point fingers. Kanno has spoken on some of her influences and why her music sounds like it does.
I know off the top of my head that the DJ FOOD stuff is. I mean, it's titled DJ FOOD because it's 'food' or material for DJ's. I can't think of any others, but I will link you once I do.
She need to give credit not just in the titles byt in the authors credit part of the liner's notes. Also she needs to pay them a certain amount of royalties as well.
She said in an interview that in her daily life she doesn't listen to much music. I've never heard that she does it because she wants all her music to be original, but she also said that when she's in the studio, she listens to music non-stop.
Also, the DJ Food project is supposed to be "food for DJs". DJ Food is not a single artist and if I'm not mistaken, it's made to be sampled from. So in that case I don't think there's a problem.
Does she at least mention that some of her songs are covers (albeit with different names and lyrics)? If she passes off other peoples music as her own that would mean she is a liar.
You forgot the baseline taken from Depeche Mode in one of her songs on the GITS:SAC soundtrack... awsome stuff. Got chills down my spine when I heard it. And the On The Run sample was really old. Ironic considering Cowboy Bebop being a tribute to all things awsome :)
Almost all music takes parts from other music and blend them into their own, just look at 90percent of all country music sounds nearly all the same... lol
Classical music borrows alot, theatrical music as well.
Right. I'm tired of everyone hating on Yoko Kanno like she's done something horrible. Some of the best music in the world can be rearranged to your own taste to make it better.
The problem is that you are supposed to credit the artist(s) who inspired you. I like what Yoko does with music, but she needs to give credit to the original artists.
I think she is a genius even if we only look at the variety of music styles she could master. we are/were all inspired by her music, and we still love her music.
Another thing that I am concerned, has anybody examined other artists' works like this? I would most of the artists would do this a lot.
In defense of Kanno, there are times when a director/writer/producer is thinking of a song that already exists for a part in a show or movie, and the musical director has to come up with something similar to that. Also, even with great jazz musicians, they'll sometimes play their own version of a song and give it a different name, like the different versions of I got Rhythm.
Yeah I second this. Producers want a song similar to the ones they envision for the song but just different enough so they don't have to pay for the original licensing.
If anything, I should thank Yoko Kanno for letting me explore all these different composers and artists. If I hadn't searched her name, I would never have heard any of these songs in my life!
Every song that is similarly taken is twisted a little to make it sound like "Yoko Kanno". I appreciate her ability to recognize potential in other songs and artists to use it in her music.
To be honest, when I discovered that, I was really disappointed. I think there is a gap between inspiring yourself of other artists and stealing. In some cases, she almost reproduces the same pattern as in the original... I still love her job, but a little less now...
You just need to search and search. Just like Brahms said about his 1st symphony, "Of course that's Beethoven in my symphony, only an idiot would not realize that!" Stravinsky said, "Great composers don't borrow, they steal". This kind of comparison is interesting, but I hope it is not the goal of the author to shame Mrs. Kanno, that would be ignorant of musical history.
There's a difference between inspiration and theft. Comparing these examples of shameless and ethically galling plagiarism to the work of Brahms and Stravinsky is specious. The history of music is not a history of empty parroting. You're apologizing for Kanno.
Also, those who may never have heard the music she was inspired from, can probably gain insight into how great ideas are inspired. I'm pretty sure that the ideas shown here in comparison to Kanno are also inspired in much the same way.
Yoko Kanno follows in the tradition of composers like Gluck, Salieri, Sacchini, Cherubini, Méhul and Spontini. She takes the innovations of her time and attempts to push them forward whist paying homage to the musicians she manages to emulate into her own language. Also, those who may never have heard the music she was inspired from, can probably gain insight into how great ideas are inspired.
Whoh you're really impressive Yuta! How many CDs do you HAVE ??? ...well as I said I still prefer Yoko kanno songs (really I can't take Laurent Voulzy even if he comes from my country yurk) lol

Sampling, sampling, sampling. I hate it when people defend this bitch (Kanno) with "sampling". It's theft, since Kanno only seems to "sample" all the time. All that hard work from original artists only to be sampled by some pseudo-composer...hell, I'll be pissed off. Plaigiarism [full stop]

Yeah, sure. Yoko Kanno is a thief, Led Zeppelin's lyrics are satanic and Paul is dead. Don't make me laugh. This is the kind of stuff they always say when great artists appear.

There shouldn't be an argument that she stole or not because we do not know for sure that how she made those songs. What do you wanna say by this video?
She might have paid for the right to use these songs and at this point, you had better not say "Yoko Kanno's got some serious stealing going on." This is just a time consuming and meaningless argument.

If people can't afford information I'm all for them just taking a copy -- but selling someone else's work as your own is sleazy and greedy as hell. Charging people for someone else's work is just sick. Really good art is agonizing to make, without copyright law all we'd have is abstract art somebody (sometimes literally) crapped out in 5 minutes.
That said, these have got to be credited covers or something. These things can't have flown under the radar, she'd have gotten sued into oblivion.

Yoko Kanno worked with DJ Food on some of the Cowboy Bebop songs. He(she?) even contributed a remix of Tank! (The Power of Kung FOOD Remix) to one of the albums. I think Mushroom Hunting might actually be a commissioned arrangement.
Also, as YokoTheBest explained, things can often be mislabeled. Just because a file says it's solely by Yoko Kanno doesn't mean it wasn't credited on the album itself.

No. I have many of these albums by Yoko Kanno, and nowhere in the liner notes does any of the original authors get credited. I most particularly looked for credits to Craig Armstrong and Laurent Voulzy (because they're the ones who led me to realize all of this), and never found ANY. :(
My, Wikipedia Japan does say she won awards for the CBBB and GITS soundtracks. But it doesn't mention the plagiarism criticism anywhere. Is she protected by some higher power?
No credits = she's a fraud.

No one said she was a complete original but that doesn't mean she's ripping people off. I agree about the Pink Floyd tribute idea if she was ripping them off you'd think she'd be more clever about it.

I would agree with the idea that Yoko's doing cover's or hommages if I didn't just hear the soundtrack for Darker than Black: there's a theme in that that is exactly the same as a theme in Great Expectations by Patrick Doyle - and that is way too obscure a soundtrack to cover or do a hommage to, it's just plain copying. I am crushed by this actually - Yoko was my hero :(.

I was all ready to freak out over this, but most of these are coincidences... and she credits Pink Floyd and DJ Food in the liner notes, apparently. Most of the obvious song comparisons are coming from the stuff in Cowboy Bebop, which makes perfect sense: the whole series is built off of stylistic homages to older movies and music. (Example: Pierrot le Fou = The Penguin from Batman.)
Charonchan 3 years ago 5
I'm not sure about it being coincidences. How about the first example? Even the said words "Conga drums" are exactly the same. The notes are the same, only transposed. What about the second sample, where country names are said in both songs?
I understand that Yoko has many projects of great variations in style, and so she has to take from songs, but at least give credit when it's due, or at least put more effort in making it your own song. The first two samples here are damning, IMO.
awonoto 3 years ago 5
I want to start by saying that Kanno is an AMAZING artist; Kannos ability to compose in so many different styles makes me think I would go mad having all these different arrangements going round my head.
Having said that here are a few "similarities I have noticed; near the end of Call Me- The Verves Bittersweet Symphony (from The Stones The Last Time). Living Inside the Shell about two minutes in you a tune that is very like Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds The Beetles or Elton John.

The beginning of Ask DNA is unmistakably the start of Carly Simons Youre so vain, lastly about 20 secs into the song Yakitori its clearly the beginning of Roundabout by Yes.Even if you only hear a few secs you cannot deny the similarities, of the songs I have listed.
Its almost like they are little salutes to the original artists.

It's one thing to steal the lyrics, another to steal the music, but another thing entirely to steal the music and the lyrics! This is brave of you to do here because of Kanno's protected 'authentic' status (A.K.A not one of the godless West).

It isn't stealing, she's mostly paying homage or doing what most composers do - sample and reuse music. It's not fair to blame her soley, a lot of composers do it to show their respect for other artist.

I don't think japanese composers have no talent. This is a ridiculous way to think ( "oh do you come from that country ? You're such a useless guy/girl." this is really rude and racist )...

That's a little riddle for intelligent people- to find what inspiration she finds. Also, anyone with basic musical knowledge knows this isn't plagiarism. Know that old joke?
A guy studying music was about to write his dissertation, not knowing what to write. His friend advised him to simply write his professor's own dissertation backwards. After a while the friend asked him if the final musical piece turned out good. It turned out great. Exactly the same as Bethoven's IXth Symphony.

AlexesHaystack 3 years ago
In defense of Kanno, there are times when a director/writer/producer is thinking of a song that already exists for a part in a show or movie, and the musical director has to come up with something similar to that. Also, even with great jazz musicians, they'll sometimes play their own version of a song and give it a different name, like the different versions of I got Rhythm.

You just need to search and search. Just like Brahms said about his 1st symphony, "Of course that's Beethoven in my symphony, only an idiot would not realize that!" Stravinsky said, "Great composers don't borrow, they steal". This kind of comparison is interesting, but I hope it is not the goal of the author to shame Mrs. Kanno, that would be ignorant of musical history.

Yoko Kanno follows in the tradition of composers like Gluck, Salieri, Sacchini, Cherubini, Méhul and Spontini.
