You Be The Judge
This popped on my Google Alerts. Some people have too much time on their hands.
All rise.
The terms of this courtroom are simple. You will be presented with two songs, one by the plaintiff and one by the defendant. It is your task to decide if the defendant’s track is only coincidentally similar to the plaintiffs or, as members of the Bar Association put it, shenanigans have been pulled. You have been duly instructed.
Today’s docket: Tom Petty, plaintiff vs. Bon Jovi, defendant
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers – A One Story Town from Long After Dark (1982)
The chorus:
Oh, I’m lost in a one story town
Where everything’s close to the ground
Yeah the same shit goes down
Nothing turns around
It’s a one story town
Bon Jovi – Two Story Town from Crush (2000)
The chorus:
It’s just the same old sights
And the same old sounds
I want to take my car and drive out of this two story town
The same old shit that’s going round
I’m going down, down ,down, down, down
In a two story town

Given many songwriters tend to use rather pedestrian phrases, I don't think its a big deal. Its only a big deal when people post stuff on it. Way too many people with time on their hands (or an excessive need to be noticed.)
