Right it’s honesty time - what songs that are covers did you not realise were covers for SO long? Just this second my mum played Billy Joel / Only the Good Die Young and I kind of just realised it wasn’t a Glee original hahah
Also I can’t believe I’m daring to type this, but Fight for You by Jason Derulo (2011) samples Toto // Africa (which I’d never heard before) so my mind was BLOWN when I heard that for the first time and thought it had copied Derulo hahaha
Nicki Minaj // Your Love samples an Annie Lennox song and when I heard the original for the first time I went ‘ah this is a Nicki song’ and my mum nearly threw me out the car
Alexandra Burke’s Hallelujah is the only version I acknowledge. So proud of her for writing such a powerful song
