Does Ariana Grande & Justin Bieber's new song rip-off Avril Lavigne? (mash-up)

[Spicechinodiva]

Word has been going around that Ariana Grande & Justin Bieber's new song "Stuck With You" rips off Avril Lavigne's underrated masterpiece "Tell Me It's Over."

This mash up proves that rumors are indeed true. Avril needs to sue for infringement. This is a rip off. 

Thoughts?

I actually love this mash-up!

I'm not convinced Stuck With You rips off TMIO. They share a bit of a likeness, but to me I would have never put two-and-two together. I think this mash-up was more designed as an ode to all three artists versus trying to prove something.

Also you are right when you gave praise to TMIO. It's probably my favorite Avril song ever.

Songs completely unrelated to each other in their creation process are bound to have similarities. Not everything can be completely novel in music making. This doesn’t seem intentional, just coincidental.
