This is written by the Swedish newspaper Expressen. The duo from Trofors heard the 90s song in the TV program “Efter fem” on Swedish TV4. They say they hear certain similarities, but don’t think it’s plagiarism. – I think there has been worse plagiarism in Eurovision before, says Marcus Gunnarsen. – There are only four notes that are the same, and there are four chords in every second song in the whole world. It’s the same sound that makes you think it’s the same, says Martinus Gunnarsen. He points out that there are no similarities in the lyrics, melody and structure of the song. – But it’s a bit similar. I see what you mean. The brothers say that they have not heard the song before, and have created the melody and structure of their song themselves.
