I feel like I haven't updated in forever (Semester Over!)

This is a really stupid post, but I just wanted to point out something.
I've fallen in love with Alizée, and one of my favorite songs of hers is J'en ai Marre.
And it sounds a LOT like Viva la Vida by Coldplay. (Alizée's song came first, I think)

I can't have been the first person to notice this.

Oh, this song! I never knew the name, but there's a famous Youtube video of Alizee performing it live while dancing and wearing a very very tiny dress :x

Really it's not even a dress o_o; Now that you mention it the instrumentals in the first few seconds are almost identical, but to me they're fairly different songs otherwise. (Hyde LOVES Viva La Vida too, he's going to make it his ringtone :P)

lol. I was not aware that Alizee was such a popular singer. ;P

I think the way the song progresses is similar, too. And maybe it's in the same key or something. I don't know, because my ears aren't trained all that well. They just sounded a lot alike to me. XD
