        Oh nah, I know the one you’re talking about. Actually like that song. I wouldn’t call that a ‘new version’ really. It’s heavily borrowing from the song, taking the melody, but that’s not uncommon in music. If they started using any of the lyrics then I would have had a problem but it being sort of an alternate take on the lyrics, plus the general electronic stuff being injected in, makes it feel like a very different song for me so I don’t really judge it based off of the original.

        That being said I totally get it not being for everyone.

            I keep things to their thread/situation. There are a few users on this site who I absolutely fucking hate and considering how frequent of a poster I am, those users tend to pop up repeatedly. I don’t want this place to become reddit where people just start dragging drama from one situation to another so I try not to do that myself.

          Yah i hear ya. What turns me of mostly is the lyrics. Like i said they sound like the most boring party music ever “im good and im feeling alright baby ima have the best fucking night of my life” thats pretty much the whole song and are probably in the top 10 most used lyrics in american songs.

            True but you’ve also got to think of the genre of the music and the place in music. It’s made by a French dude to start with, David Guetta, and the type of music he makes is focused more on the vibes/beat than it is on the lyrics. The vocals are only ever really added to help further those vibes which is why I give a pass to this song. They’re not trying to create good lyrics, they’re trying to create good vibes. I can appreciate that.

              The thing is that it doesnt even do that for me at least because he uses tge eifel blue song as most of the beat which is so recognisable that its impossible to not be reminded of it and it reminds me of it so much that i would rather just listen to that original version because i liked it very much.
