Bieber tweets suspiciously familiar lyrics to new duet...








1D fans are pissed about the strangely identical lyrics of Bieber's new duet with Carly Rae Jespen, as it bears almost the exact same words and message of One Direction's smash hit, What Makes You Beautiful. It also bears a huge resemblance to Ed Sheeran's Wake Me Up.

mte but at the same time I feel like they're trying really hard to make it happen so both parties get some buzz
angelmonster 2nd-Sep-2012 02:21 am (UTC)
Lbr, we are all hoping both sides kill eachother.
beatlesluv 2nd-Sep-2012 02:24 pm (UTC)
What's even worse is that it's one sided; 1d are not having anything to do with this stupidness, neither is Ed. I don't understand why Bieber can't check his fucking ego at the door and stop trolling in the deep and being so thirsty.
bluepassiflora 2nd-Sep-2012 01:05 am (UTC)
Those lyrics are so Tumblr macro.
odontv 2nd-Sep-2012 01:05 am (UTC)
Homage?
































lol
rosebuddear 2nd-Sep-2012 03:31 am (UTC)
Homage to what? He tweeted that before 1D's song came out.
odontv 2nd-Sep-2012 04:16 am (UTC)
1D's homage to Bieber obvs.
hypermuseic9 2nd-Sep-2012 01:06 am (UTC)
oh god. tumblr can really be embarrassing...all the time.
stussytribe 2nd-Sep-2012 01:06 am (UTC)
i think him & his team are trollin a little that whole jt knockoff of boyfriend & nsyncs song called "girlfriend", that whole video was a girlfriend knockoff. now "as long as you love me" like ugh they could've chose another title. maybe its the bsb stan in me
kitapita 2nd-Sep-2012 01:12 am (UTC)
Haha. I have to say I thought about ALAYLM.

He was a Youtube artist, for hell's sake. And we're surprised he uses things that sound suspiciously like other popular songs in lyrics?
chockablock 2nd-Sep-2012 01:13 am (UTC)
RIGHT?
mzmclean 2nd-Sep-2012 01:33 am (UTC)
(i may have just posted this in the wrong thread somewhere else! LOL)

As a BSB fan, I mean, who didn't see the title to the 1D song and think of "What Makes You Different... Makes You Beautiful" off of Black and Blue?

There are only so many storylines in cheesy pop music. Folks need to accept that :)
hannahgrace456 2nd-Sep-2012 01:54 am (UTC)
Black and Blue was the first album I remember getting. Bless <3333
ellaellaeheheh 2nd-Sep-2012 02:08 am (UTC)
I'm pissed that I didn't remember that!!!!
heartbreakingg 2nd-Sep-2012 02:08 am (UTC)
Oh my god, glad I am not the only one!!! Every time I mention the 1D song that is what I want to call it!!! I like both songs though, no hate etc etc
cityxpretty 2nd-Sep-2012 02:15 am (UTC)
YES! Before I heard the 1d song, I'd sing the BSB one in my head. Now that I've heard the 1D song, I still sing BSB's in my head. :)
empirebird 2nd-Sep-2012 02:36 am (UTC)
and More Than This on 1D's album is basically More Than That.
rainbowchelita 2nd-Sep-2012 01:06 am (UTC)
I cannot with this manchild and how pressed he is with 1D over the VMAs thing.

gramfaernes 2nd-Sep-2012 01:06 am (UTC)
They are all uninspired.
grande_latte 2nd-Sep-2012 01:06 am (UTC)
If directioners are pissed about this then the BSB fandom should be pissed that 1Ds tracklist is identical to BSB songs
bibbysbaby 2nd-Sep-2012 01:35 am (UTC)
huh?
possevi 2nd-Sep-2012 01:46 am (UTC)
No lies detected.
cherisheddesire 2nd-Sep-2012 01:50 am (UTC)
Yeah but the bsb fandom seems a little too old to start petty fights like this
punkylana 2nd-Sep-2012 01:51 am (UTC)
I'm not old :(
starcrossedkiss 2nd-Sep-2012 03:00 am (UTC)
lol I am old I am almost 28... but whatever ;-)

I have been a HARDCORE bsb fan since 1995, and when 1D came out with that damn song, the second I saw the title I thought of the BSB one from B&B!!!

but I didn't bother mentioning it because I figured all the 1D girls would just be like "huh????"

kniferomance 2nd-Sep-2012 06:27 am (UTC)
It would be hilar, though, because it would really just be one big trollfest.
ashe_frost 2nd-Sep-2012 07:58 pm (UTC)
LOL @ the idea that pettiness goes away with age. Try working retail at a department store. Old people can be petty as shit.
punkylana 2nd-Sep-2012 01:50 am (UTC)
I'm a BSB fan, I like 1D and I don't care.
empirebird 2nd-Sep-2012 02:39 am (UTC)
Well, who else would they imitate? BSB is the best.
mcdreamyy 2nd-Sep-2012 03:25 am (UTC)
i'm still pressed that bieber released a song titled "as long as you love me"
saywithlove 2nd-Sep-2012 04:46 am (UTC)
YES EXACTLY.
roguedandelion 2nd-Sep-2012 06:00 am (UTC)
Lol, I thought "One Thing" was a BSB cover at first.
superchocobear 2nd-Sep-2012 11:39 am (UTC)
Lol boy band fandoms. If we're gonna get technical about 'originality' then I want to see pressed Beatles fans call out every boy band ever.
smolderhotter 2nd-Sep-2012 02:05 pm (UTC)
weren't you a 1D stan or sth? You seem to be hating on them lately
beatlesluv 2nd-Sep-2012 02:26 pm (UTC)
I happen to like both actually.


Even Brian or Kevin retweeted the similarity to One thing and LOVED it. Saw it as paying homage to them. Brian and other members have gone to 1d concerts too. They love 1d. It's not the same thing as what Justin Bieber is doing here. Anyone w/ sense can see that Justin is thirsty and pressed. BSB are a legendary boy band who anyone with sense will want to draw inspiration from. Every artist or band has someone/something they look up to. Musicians and artists are all drinking from the pot.

Britney fans being pressed as always. Thry can go back to obsessing over their brain-dead prisoner.

apeshit_x 2nd-Sep-2012 01:07 am (UTC)
But he literally tweeted it on that date before WMYB came out. Pretty sure he just pointed it out so people wouldn't say he was ripping it off. Anyways can't wait for the VMA's so this whole thing can be over.

briknowsbest 2nd-Sep-2012 01:07 am (UTC)
Justin tweeted those lyrics in July of 2011 but nice try
miss_real 2nd-Sep-2012 09:57 am (UTC)
well the 1D song was all over the radio in summer 2011 in the UK. So the track was out there...
briknowsbest 2nd-Sep-2012 03:54 pm (UTC)
but WMYB premiered on BBC radio August 10th?
that_nuanda 2nd-Sep-2012 01:08 am (UTC)
I have a feeling I'm gonna need to blacklist everything and everyone that has to do with this project on Tumblr Savior ASAP.
