OT: Somebody call The Police

[dash]

No, not those police, the 80's band, Bruno Mars song "Locked out of Heaven" sounds suspiciously close to "Message in a Bottle" with elements of "Roxanne" as well...

Certainly tries to emulate their reggae/rock fusion thing they had going.

I kept hearing the name Bruno Mars, but I never knew he was a singer. I thought he was that judge on Dancing With The Stars, heh.

Definitely has a circa 1979 Sting voice; the guitar had an Andy Summers feel, too. Didn't really hear an direct plagiarism, to be honest.

Fuck the police.

Seriously, I hate Sting and the police.

Yeah, it certainly has the same sound as the Police, but not the SAME sound. Can't copyright having an early-Sting-like voice, after all.

Fuck the police.

He has nothing but good things to say about you....

 

[elocomotive]

Fuck the police.
