http://www.yve.jp/index.html Some Japanese on the internet point out that a new Jpop singer YVE's debut song "Tenshi ga kureta mono ~It's Only Love" sounds just like YUI's "Good-bye days". The single has not released yet and seems like she wrote only its lyrics though. |

I remember briefly visited her site, but I didn't listen to any clips of her debut song. Yeah, right now, there's too much similarity in the chorus. I wonder how the full song sounds like and if they did or did not license YUI's song. |

Mmmm... It's a copy, there's no doubt. But her voice is nice ^^. However, YUI's voice is better for this song, she gives it the most beautiful feeling. |
I translate YUI songs into Spanish in YUI-es, the Spanish YUI website. ^^

My favorite YUI song . . . How could they do this? Now when I listen to 'Good-bye days', I'll have this song in my head. This YVE artist should've been more original and try to be less obvious. That's sad too . . . Making a first debut but actually ending up using someone else's song especially when it's YUI's. You know how many fans are going to be outraged? That's going to leave a indelible stain on this YVE artist's reputation. Shame on her . . . She should know better. Well at least were not going to be all over the Chinese again now are we guys? |

YUI Stalker - Philippines Chapter

this is insanity! they may claim that it was not copied from YUI since the ending of the chorus (i assume) is quite different... but the hell! the start of the chorus really sounded like YUI's Goodbye Days! how cruel! and i can't take it because Good-bye Days is one of my ultimate favorite YUI song... waaaaah... even the name has a few "similarities" as they may say.... waaaaah... |

Well, it's good, in a bad way, that YUI's songs are being copied as it shows that her songs are good and that people are taking notice... Not that they weren't before... I'm not sure if Leah Dizon has had her songs copied before... |

ok all the other songs copied were licensed and exactly the same just in another language. this song is variated but clearly a rip off. whoever the composer is, they're being stupid and just screwing her debut up. changing a bit of the chorus doesn't make it a new song. |

^ Oh thanks for the info~ Too ballad-ish, not my type. At first it does sound really similar to Good-bye days, especially the very first part of chorus. After a few listens, not that obvious to me any more. We shall wait for the full version~ Can't wait to see her face lol. 8 more days. Don't be so upset, we as YUI fans should be more 'civilised' =) lol!! |

the chorus does bear resemblance to good-bye days, but i'm not sure if i'll call it a complete rip off... i mean, there's a limit to how much creativity to produce songs these days, and i guess her composer was inspired by good-bye days :rolleye i can name at least 2 other songs which have parts borrowed from other songs... lets wait and hear the full song first before condemning YVE i'd say YUI will be proud to hear this :clap it IS her song after all whats that saying - mimicry is the best form of flattery? |

At least she had the courtesy to hide her face. One cannot guarantee what might just happen. I'm not that pissed really, stuff like these happens fairly often. Taiwanese singer Cyndi Wang had a Mandarin version of 'The Day You Went Away' by M2M(they rock). No one was screaming or doing anything back then. No one seemed to care. |

Ah, no instrumental version eh. Else it would be more obvious I think. I can't help but overlap it with Goodbye Days and it's very noticeable. This should spark some interesting controversy. But, even though being copied isn't that nice, it's free publicity I suppose. People will start comparing but at least YUI is on the innocent side, it's always better to be copied than doing the copying imho. =/
Hmm, well, there's a difference between doing a cover version of another song and plagiarizing one. Those that do the cover version would credit the original composers at least(well, those i know about). But taking chunks of other songs without permission and claiming it your own is another story...This one, will wait and see... P/S: It's also a theme to the movie (Tenshi ga kureta mono) currently being shown in Japanese cinemas... |

The arguement of whether this song copies YUI's Good-bye Days is very similar to Avril Lavigne's song "Girlfriend" being similar to an old '70s song "I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend" by Rubinoos. They both have very similar chorus part where it goes "Hey (hey), You (you), I wanna be your girlfriend/boyfriend" and more. But at least that case the songs are like 30 years apart, where as this case, it's only a little over 1 year. |

I totally agree with this. And I love Good-bye Days (it's ARGUABLY my favourite song. ARGUABLY...because I love loads of YUI's songs, depending on my mood). So people, be civil, we- true fans- hear the similarities right away, and I agree to Fujii_Itsuki that it's better being copied than copying. I am also indignant 'bout the fact that I've personally seen/heard TWO things similar to YUI's without credits (the UNDERSTAND MV- Miriam Yeung and GBDays by this singer- YVE? X_x'??). But still... Btw, does anyone still remember the Tomorrow's Way song by Fiona Sit? 'Dear Fiona'? Goodness I remember the indignance that boiled in that thread- and it was given credit. Yes, YUI was destined for awesome-ship, even early in her career...though that might mean people may nick some of her stuff... and creativity seems to be running low in new producers?.... :YUIFace |

I fully comprehend the meaning of a cover version. And trust me, she did not have the consent of M2M nor did she credit M2M. She'll get away with it(this YVE). I'm fairly sure. |

Well, copyright is always a problem... Here's one... Two people, Person V and Person Y, are songwriters and they both decide to write their own songs. Doesn't really matter who started writing first or how much time difference in when they both started. Person Y releases a song, then some time later Person V releases a song of her own, which is similar to the one Person Y wrote. As long as Person V can prove that the song he/she wrote is her own and that it did not contain any parts of the song Person Y did, then V is not guilty of anything. Also, copyright only protects the work, the expression of the idea... Not the idea itself. An example I read off a blog some time ago, if you write a novel/comic about a young ninja, who has an evil and powerful fox spirit sealed away in his body and decided to be leader of his clan/town, you can't be sued. But if you write a novel/comic about a young ninja called Naturo, who has an evil and powerful Kitsune spirit sealed away in his body and wishes to be the leader of his leaf village, then you might be in some trouble... During the whole XEDO fiasco here in the land of the Men in White, I was able to read quite a bit on copyright stuff... But I must warn you, TINLA... Enjoy. |

Wait... if its a theme song for a movie...and if a lot of people watch the movie, then won't the song get popular...? Then people would just like her song cause of the movie... :rolleye Agh~ how could a poser, YUI rip-off potentially become famous and popular~!?!? The idea of it is just... :shock Ah, these copyright laws are so confusing~ I guess there isn't anything anyone could do about it. |

I feel the indignation of AnimeFreak also. But well, what can we do? Definitely, I felt it sounded identical to GoodByeDay s chorus. Ahhh. Yui yui yui. We ll just see how things turn out ya? No point in all of us getting all upset; we cannot help much too. Only the radio audience in Japan could.. Hmmm On Girlfriend and I wanna be your boyfriend. THAT WAS A TOTAL RIPOFF! They just changed it to a much more rocky version. The boy band sang I wanna be your boyfriend and Avril, being a girl, sang Girlfriend. How else was it not a ripoffffff? lol. Cheeeers |

I kind of agree with that. YUI's 'Winding Road' chorus is pretty similar to Avril's 'Complicated'. Or maybe I'm wrong. It's just when I first heard 'Winding Road', I got this in my head. I'm probably wrong because I haven't even relistened to 'Complicated' in a long time. |

of course. when u compose songs, its often melodies from other songs that subconciously come into ur mind, not exactly tho. but it depends how much the melody is similar to hte song. this YVE's debut song chorus melody is identical to Goodbye Days except for a line lol. and if its like avril's song and YUI's song, its two diff languages so its kinda more acceptable. but still i wouldnt think YUI's melodies are exactly identical to another song |
