Everything is a remix.
I agree completely. Yes, there are similarities, but since time immemorial, musicians have been ripping off other works. (Bach for example, while playing in church would incorporate bits of local street tunes into his playing, much to the amusement of the congregation that caught on.). Here’s another travesty: “Men at Work” lost a suit which claimed that the flute solo in “Down Under” was stolen from “Kookaburra sits in an All Gum Tree”
