Kelly Clarkson Rips Off Arcade Fire (or at least it sure sounds like it)

by Michael Joffe

A new song by Kelly Clarkson has surfaced online, and while the story may have turned out to be a boring old leak, it’s turned to accusations of plagiarism, yes the p-word!  The track ‘Naked Eye’ sure sounds like a sped up version of Arcade Fire’s utterly recognizable tune, Rebellion (Lies). But just to be clear, we’re not disrespecting Clarkson here, because she’s tired of that. You be the judge, listen to the track here, and then play Rebellion Lies here and let us know what you think in the comments. [Exclaim! via twentyfourbit]
