Why does Justin Bieber steal song titles from other people?

Question

I was at a alternative show a couple days ago, and Third Eye Blind was performing a song called "Never Let You Go," and the girl next to me was like "Hey, isn't that a Justin Bieber song??"

BTW the TEB one was out YEARS before Justin ******'s newest crap, so I'm asking, he can't even find an original song name??

Answer 1

Well never let you go is a pretty generic name for a song so its hard to say if he copied it. Justin Bieber is just someone we are all going to have to put up with until A) He is assassinated B) His voice finally breaks and he cant sing C) We die from tumours listening to his music. I'm rooting for A lol. If anything hes just taken lyrics from other songs and put them in his own because every time I unfortunately catch him on he radio I just know iv'e heard all those lyrics before. I actually reckon he doesnt write his own songs but I dunno xD

Answer 2

Ok. So I'll be the first to say the Justin Bieber isn't exactly the most original hit to come along in the last few years (He's basically what Aaron Carter was in the 90's), but you have to look at it like this: NOONE in the whole wide world has ever done an original thing EVER! Not even Third Eye Blind. Whether they are inspired by something, or it's just a coincidence, one artist can only be so original.



I don't really like Justin Bieber either, but I'm going to quote NigaHiga ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r56jqb-fWVM ) on this one (not a direct quote, but basically what he said.) :



Don't praise him like he's a god because he's not, and don't treat him like he's Chris Brown, he isn't! He's done nothing wrong!



I find that people shouldn't over react to **** like this....



Because it might just come back and bite you....LIKE THIS:





New Kids On The Block did a song called "Never Let You Go" also in 1994....Third Eye Blind didn't release theirs until 1999...did they copy? did they do it on purpose?



Probably not.





Don't get me wrong, I like Third Eye Blind and I don't really like Justin Bieber, but I find overreactions such as this one obnoxious and just an overdone attempt at nonconforming.









No offense. I have lots of friends like you and know lots of people just like all of you also....the way people hate him and the way people praise him make me almost equally sick...

Answer 3

I don't see why your freaking out because Justin Bieber only stole the chorus to his song and he stole the title of the song, that's it so you are over exaggerating over nothing now I would see if you were mad if he stole the whole song of 'Somebody To Love' by Queen or if Rebecca Black stole Michael Jackson's song or the Queens song without changing it up a little bit. Justin Bieber isn't as bad as you make it seem. There are many artists out there that take legends songs and put them on their album or they will change up the lyrics a little bit. If Rebecca Black or a very bad singer stole Justin Bieber's songs would I be freaking out saying "Oh my god!!!! They have the same song!!" lmao no and I'm a huge Belieber stop acting like its the end of the world.

Answer 4

It's not like "Never Let You Go" is much of an original title. Just do a google search of "Never Let YOu Go lyrics" and you'll find that there are several other bands with songs title that, including Pretty Rickey, Evermore, 100% Dima Bilan and others. He didn't steal from anyone, he just comes up with boring and unoriginal song titles.

Answer 5

seriously Justin Bieber is like ******* 12. He can't think for himself at all. Honestly I hate him with a passion. His song names also happen to be closely named to other songs from diff bands. I bet his record label comes up with the songs and titles. He's just the face that sells there ****.

Answer 6

i agree... Justin Bieber is still really younger usually its the young kids that take interest and ideals from older people...he is just taking there ideal song artist does it from time to time

Answer 7

Because it would take up too much time to write his own songs and that would mean that he would have to cut down on his great humanitarian work and all his novels.

Answer 8

Man.. i think i hate justin bieber fans more than justin bieber himself! lol

Answer 9

hes not stealing names if you see alot of songs have the same tittles as others - soo just because you dnt like his music oor him doesnt mean hes stealing tittles ;P
