Music Battle: Ke$ha vs Owl City and Carly Rae Jepsen

These two songs are a study in opposites, which I kind of think is cool.
Actually, the singers are pretty much inverses, right down to their hair color.

Ke$ha - TiK ToK

Owl City & Carly Rae Jepsen - Good Time

So which do you like more?
My positivity-loving side wants to pick 'Good Time', but Ke$ha is just grungy (is that a word? why, yes it is) enough that I can't help but pick her song as my winner in this face-off.

Music Battle: Robin Thicke vs Marvin Gaye and George Clinton

If you've listened to the radio lately, you've heard Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" plenty of times.
Apparently there's been some drama over it, because reps for Marvin Gaye and George Clinton believe Robin's music is too similar to their own work from years back.

Yep, both parties are suing for copyright violation.

Oh, our silly litigious society.

Have a listen to the songs, and then I want to know what you think:

Robin Thicke - Blurred Lines

Marvin Gaye - Got to Give It Up

Funkadelic (George Clinton) - Sexy Ways

Hmm, I don't see it. I'm thinking this is just a ploy by the Marvin Gaye and George Clinton camps to get back in the limelight for a little bit.

What do you think? Leave your opinion of the lawsuits in the comments.

Music Battle: Sara Bareilles vs Katy Perry

Anybody else notice that the newest Sara Bareilles and Katy Perry songs sound alike?

I believe Sara's came out first, but I'm wondering who recorded theirs first, or at least when the music was written for each. Did they have the same producer? Or is this just a crazy coincidence?

I'll let you decide:

Sara Bareilles - Brave

Katy Perry - Roar

What do you think? Do they sound pretty similar to you?
And who did it better? Leave your vote in the comments.

Update: My buddy Clint shared this sweet mash-up of the two songs with me today. Cool, huh?
