Another example of a song that has been plagiarised at least 3 times

First came the Swedish band Cardigans who released their song "Lovefool" as a single on 14 September 1996, in the United Kingdom and internationally on 5 October 1996. The song was featured in the film William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet




Then came Arsenium with a virtually the same song but with a title "Love me, love me". Arsenium is a Moldovian singer who was the youngest member of the former boyband "O-Zone". "Love Me, Love Me" was released in 2005 (Germany Top 100 #33, France Singles Top 100 #36)



Finally came Justin Bieber with "Love me" in 2009. There might be more to come after him, however.




The chorus that all three songs share begins at 0:46 for Cardigans' song, at 0:45 for Arsenium's and at 0:50 for Justin Bieber's. It is interesting that even the time lines are almost exactly the same.
