"Why Do These Songs Sound Exactly The Same Part-- this is part 12
This is a series on Reaction Time, where we look at two similar songs suggested by you guys that sound a little bit too similar
And take them through different tests to see whether they pass or fail.
So in this episode we got two contestants. This was suggested by a lot of you. This is one of the most suggested songs
that sound similar. We got Selena Gomez "Same Old Love" music video, published October 7th 2015,
329 million views in two years. And we got one of my favorite songs at the moment it's called
It's by Camila Cabello posted on October 24th 2017.
This music video was published about two years after Selena Gomez. Extremely popular, this is one of the most popular songs at the moment.
268 million views in only about one month.
This is probably gonna be a song that goes up to over half a billion. Maybe even 1 billion views. Now
I want you guys to listen to this very closely, because in my opinion the beats are very similar. Again
I am not accusing any of these artists for stealing anybody else's beats of course. There is licensing. Sometimes
there's just similar chord structures.
And I just want you guys take a listen. So without further a do, let's have a good listen to both of these songs. Lets start off
with Selena Gomez. Lets start off with the beat only no vocals yet. (starts playing "Same Old Love")
That was Selena Gomez "Same Old Love" that's what the song is called. We got "Havana" by Camila. Let's have a listen. (starts playing "Havana")
One more time. If you guys didn't catch that, I want you guys to let me know your opinion. This is purely
opinion, so uh, let's make sure we don't get any lawsuits up here.
There is no way to actually prove this, except for just thinking it sounds the same. One more time listen to the beat really closely.
3, 2, 1 Go! (plays "Same Old Love" and "Havana" again)
What do you guys think. Let me know down in the comments below.
Now, the first test was to see the publish date.
So obviously Selena Gomez's song was published two years ago,
"Havana" was pretty recent. So Selena has the advantage. Next, was to see the view count.
Currently, Selena has more views in her favor than Camila.
But, it seems like Camilla is gonna pass her in views very soon, because this it's only been a month. And lastly, we're gonna check
to see how well both songs flow together, by simply fading them into each other. Let's try it out. We're gonna start off with
Selena Gomez (plays "Same Old Love" and slowly fades it into "Havana")
Now, of course I don't know the results till the video is actually edited and both songs are mixed together.
But what do you guys think about this? Let me know down the comments below,
and if you have any other songs. So far it seems like the beat is very similar,
but I've noticed Camila's beats for her song "Havana" is actually faster than Selena Gomez.
This is very common in the music industry,
just saying. I mean we all know that there's many songs that sound very similar to each other. This does not change my opinion
on either songs.
But if you guys have any other songs, comment it down below right now. Two songs that you guys think sound very similar. This is
just very interesting to me, and of course like I said,
it's all opinion based. Definitely do not send hate to any of these artists and a lot of times,
producers themselves are usually in charge of creating the beat. And yeah guys, that's gonna
end it for this episode. If you want to see another episode,
let me know by liking the video. There are many more songs out there that sound similar,
that I would really want you guys to let me know about.
Comment it down below or send it at reactiontimevideos@gmail.com. That's gonna end it for this video though, and yeah guys
