I think everyone has copied.
even Hollywood also copied from french or euro folk song. Everyone copies.exception is the first person who invented.
Shesha Chaturvedi,,
yes i agree with you.
Well i knew about one or two of the above songs being copied but the length of the list really surprised me.Its all about sharing ,i guess..hee !
happy Sunday .
RD Burman 'reused' his own tunes too....how many songs did he make on 'Mehbooba o Mehbooba...' tune...I heard few of them...all composed by RD.
But he was a good composer and used different instruments.

"ऐसा ऑलराउंडर न हुआ है न कभी होगा. और इसमें उसके
पिता, मैं, और सभी दूसरे म्यूज़िक डायरेक्टर शामिल हैं.
मैं ये बहुत चीख के बताना चाहता हूँ कि ऐसा संगीतकार होगा नहीं.
फिर उसके साथ जो है न हमारा युग ख़त्म हो जाता है." - अनिल बिस्वास
"RD Burman is the only musical phenomenon that happened in the last 20 years of our film era." - Salil Chowdhury

Bro even mehbooba was copied...from a islamic song
every one talks about RD Burman copying..do you all know ek hasina tha ik diwana tha from karz the guitar theme it is totally copied by laxmikant pyarelal as it is from the guitar tune played by some western composer tune to tune and completely no one discussed.
even shankar jaikishan copied this song - kaun hai jo sapno me aaya...kaun hai jo dil me samaya... i have seen the video of this song of some english movie. google this you will get.
no other md has that fan following as of RD Burman
Diehard fan of RD Burman
Copying is no crime. But passing it off as ones original creation without crediting the original is sacrilege and it speaks volumes about a charecter who is unwittingly idolized by hapless fans.
Thats why we say the old songs had soul.. bcz now its not possible to fool the public by copying..
