Britney has a new single out, "Hold It Against Me," but David Bellamy of the Bellamy Brothers is complaining because his group released a similar title back in 1979, "If I Said You Have a Beautiful Body Would You Hold It Against Me."
Who cares! It is quite stupid to make a big deal out of this. C'mon, we all know that we have to work with our limited letters and words in our language. Of course, a lot of words have been used before, and then to reuse, but it is obviously not a rip. These days, it is tougher to write a perfectly new song, because just about everything has been taken already.
This guy, David, was saying how unoriginal it was... Just because a new song just happens to be similar does not automatically make it unoriginal. It could be original to the song writer(s).
So.. Discuss. Do anyone think the guy has a chance with legal action against Britney?
I do not see people crying about Christmas songs being remade into different styles by different persons.
