Do you think “Oh Pretty Woman” sounds similar to the new single by Olivia Rodrigo?

I can hear a similarity but no way is it exactly like it! I listened to both of the beginnings one after another, twice.

There is a similarity in the drums and one of the “base lines” (if that’s the right term). I’m not a fan of copyrighting such things, and I think most of the song is substantially different, but I do think she’s right there are a couple of very similar elements there.

It’s a similar riff but not an unusual one and I don’t think it’s plagiarism.

Not even close. No plagiarism.

No, I don’t find them very similar.

Similar. But too generic of a riff to be considered plagiarism IMO.
