Write a song about the anxieties of creative influence vs. imitation, referencing specific examples like Tarantino films, high school Radiohead ripoffs, indie folk playlists, and the "Blurred Lines" case. Include these quotes: "Like when does 'inspired by' become straight up copying 🤔", "like when does a "homage" just become a ripoff? 🤔", "But somehow his stuff still feels original? Because he's transforming it into something new", "Like when I was writing songs in high school and they were basically just Radiohead ripoffs with worse lyrics lol 😂", and "There's a difference between stealing and... what's that fancy art word... appropriating?". The song should explore the tension between honoring influences while developing a unique voice, and the paranoia of being accused of plagiarism.
