  I think they have some similarities, but they are not identical.

  Miley did not write this particular song though. Rockstar was written for her character Hannah Montana for the show, so Miley is not responsible for any similarities between the two songs.

  Miley is known for writing songs, but only for her own albums (Meet Miley Cyrus and the forthcoming Breakout). The only song she has written that her character on TV sings is “I Miss You”.

  So, really I wish people would at least get that part right and accuse the writers for this song of plagirism and not Miley herself.

  The guitar opening is similar. I think the versus and chorus have a different rhythm and time. However, I do believe the standard for a court case is pretty low so the Disney camp may have some exposure. Only X amount of notes is enough to get nailed in court.

  I remember Ray Parker Jr. getting sued for his Ghostbuster’s theme sounding just like I Want A New Drug by Huey Lewis. Lewis got an out of court settlement.

  i see some similar parts.
  but miley didnt even write it.
  disney did.
  for her show.
  so i think this whole thing is a waste of peoples time.
  they are just doing all this to miley and not laying off of her cause britney spears is being good.
  and so is lindsay lohan and paris hilton.

  I say no there isn’t any similarity except for the guitar part!! So she actually didn’t copy!

  let’s not be stupid and pretend that little destiny hope could even manage to have anything to do with choosing her own songs
  those songs aren’t really up to her at all
  but enough parts of the song are too similar too ignore
  plus lustra’s pretty fuckin tight so
  if you’re going to steal their shit, disney, at least try to make it half good
  i almost hope this lawsuit goes through just so i can laugh as daddy gets fucked over
  i mean
  i don’t really care though

  The parts that sound alike are too much alike to be a coincidence.
  Lets not forget that the person… i am not sure if it was the writer, producer or someone else, is the same person that got in trouble for copyright infringement with Avril’s Girlfriend song. That is too hard to overlook!

  look, you fuckers should leave this 15 yr old girl alone. shes doing her best with her life but most of her time/life goes to her shows or songs so shes entiltled to going out with her mates having a laugh a drink i know shes only 15 but we were young at one point just think about that please.

  She totally stole it. (or her stupid father did) they are really stupid. and i feel bad for her a little. Her father is using her to get famous because when he was a singer he only had one hit but it was a stupid song anyway. I mean, “Achy Brakey Heart??” wow. it was crap. and while I’m complaining those pictures of her and her father were sick. they were creepy. if any normal father did that with their daughter, he would be arrested. And I understand the pictures of her in her underwear and bikini. I take pics of myself in bikinis but i don’t put them out for the world to see. And you know they were purposely let out to the media by her or her family. But the pics of her rolling around on the ground almost making out with her friend were weird. you don’t do that with your friends. are you kidding me???
  People need to remember that hollywood IS NOT REAL!!!! Their lives are dramatized and people manupulate them to a breaking point like britney spears and that is why her life was so messed up!!! Hollywood is not the real world and it is not normal. If we quit idolizing those celebrities and watching their every move, they might be able to get their personal lives straightened out!!!
  thank you for listening!! Bye!!!

  You people are DEAF. From the moment I hard it I knew it was ripped off from Lustra. The lyrics have nothing to do with the similarities. It’s the tune playing in the background, the guitar riffs and what not. The song was totally ripped off from Lustra. And They aren’t taking legal action towards Miley Cyrus they are taking action towards Disney. Read The damn news. Lustra owns that song, and has been around far more longer then Miley. They have every right to go after Disney for this.
