They do sound exactly the same.
*The Creep
How do these things come about?
Like who from Radiohead is digging this stuff out and filing a lawsuit? Theres just so many songs out there and this isnât one in the charts, is it?
Also, itâs exactly the same. How did she not realise she is singing radiohead
Their labelâs lawyers, I guess?
Iâd guess itâs Radioheadâs publisher (Warner Music I believe) that has spotted this or had it brought to their attention and is pursuing LDR rather than anyone in Radiohead themselves.
I thought that Radiohead would have come out issuing a statement saying it wasnât them making them look like chill bros while simultaneously pocketing cash in a win-win scenario by now

Pretty sure thatâs what heâs getting at
That would be logical. This thread is the first Iâve heard of this so didnât know they hadnât said anything (I didnât read the article in the OP of course). Itâs nearly always the publisher that instigates things like this rather than the composer. If I remember rightly, this is exactly what happened in the Air That I Breathe/Creep case, the Hollies saying itâs not us, itâs the publishers.
Maybe Thomâs working on a big statement where he can somehow blame Spotify for it?
Oh, Iâve made that up about the Hollies because they didnât even write The Air That I Breathe.
Albert Hammond Jrâs dad did!
(Not sure either artist is coming out of this well right now)
It might not have been inspired by it, but it is it.
The verses are pretty much identical in every single way tbf.
A mate of mine pointed out the similarity between âHigh And Dryâ and Princeâs âSlow Loveâ. Apparently Radiohead had to pay him bunse but a non-disclosure agreement was signed. Thieving bastards.
also thatâs one of their worst songs
these songs arenât that similar guys, please listen to music better!
I heard they had to pay off Los Del Rio due to similarities between Idioteque and Macarena.
case closed!
