Yeah, I read all about this when it made the rounds awhile ago. Timbaland shows he has a complete disregard of musical ethics by blatantly stealing a song someone else made. It's not even a case of it "sounding similar," it's obviously the same thing. For him to write it off as being ok since it's "from a videogame" [which is incorrect], that's just sad.

Listening to the interview now. His thinking is really messed up. At one point he said something like, "Look at my face. Now look at his face...you don't know his face." OK, so it's fine to steal songs from people, as long as you're very well-known and they're not. Yeah, that makes sense.

And of course, the generic radio guys laugh with him at "those Finnish guys." Disgusting.

Like you, Rimo, I hope justice wins here, and Timbaland gets it big time. A court ruling against him or something like that, with it being very public and on the major news stations would be great.

How ya doing, buddy?
Check out my original music at my Soundcloud page!

Latest music rips (updated January 10, 2012):

SimCity DS - Jazz/ambient/electronic music including interesting reworkings of songs from the fantastic SimCity 3000 soundtrack
Cold Winter Original Game Music Score - Really cool; dark, full, emotional strings mixed with drums, piano, choir. Kind of like Furious Angels?

Play-Asia - Japanese CDs, game soundtracks, game imports, & more
