notes:
This drove me nuts until I figured it out. Liked the Antebellum chorus but knew I had heard it. Came to me in the car the next day. I HAD to do this for my own sanity. I stepped down Lady Antebellum 2 steps. I think it went from E to D (sounds pretty cool in drop D), but the tempo adjustment was way slight. Alan Parsons Project was at 110 and L.A. was at 108 so I ramped back Eye in the Sky ever so slightly - really no big change. This is the result.

I can't claim there's an intentional rip off, but this was A.P.P.'s biggest hit because of that chorus hook and that is the ONLY reason I liked the Antebellum song. It's a great freaking hook for both songs. The verses in the L.A. song are new country swill to me and also sound exactly like a whole bunch of other stuff that has existed prior to their release. The whole song is the hook, and it's not really theirs...

You may doubt they ripped off The AlanParsons Project, but they did. You might not imagine that they did but they did. You might think that their songs are "complex", which they are not, but that doesnt mean they arent ripped off from someone else's complex songs. Just because you havent heard of Eye In The Sky before now doesnt prove that Need You Now isnt a blatant rip off of Eye In The Sky. Not just an intentional rip off but a blatant rip off. They should be ashamed.

i wonder if the alan parson's project was mailed a grammy too

[tom rumler]

most of c/w music is written by someone not in the band preforming it... as a result, a good many of the tunes are ripped from another artist.

Frauds!!!!!!!!!!!!

All this time, I literally thought Lady Antebellum straight up remade the Alan Parsons Project song. Clear rip off.

Someone said they blended seamlessly... really? The country tune here is pitched down and slowed down. They do not blend. Same chord progression, sure... there are a million songs that remind me of others. Look up "That's Just Jesse" by Kevin Denny and then look up "The Flame" by Cheap Trick... do they sound alike.. yeah. Alot. Rip off... no way. The writers of this song are not new to the nashville skyline. They have seen ASCAP,SESAC and BMI writers and publishers sue others. No way.

You can read my mind but you can't sue these assholes!?
