- Are Halsey' songs "Colors" and "Drive" taken from the Taylor Swift song "RED"? You be the judge.
Seems like Halsey has had a problem with her for quite some time. Halsey is Ashley Frangipane.
Honestly, I really love both of them and when I first heard Halsey's "Colors" it did remind me of Taylor Swift's "Red". But the two are very different songs. One is about losing someone and explaining the feelings of love, loss, and sadness. The other is about revolving so much around someone that everything around you becomes about them. Plus, people have been using colors to describe emotions for A LONG TIME. Taylor Swift didn't just make that idea up. They have similar sounds, but I wouldn't jump right to copying.
I agree with this so much. When I heard the Red and Drive parts in the video, I genuinely thought they did NOT sound similar. I mean all pop songs have four syllabals, beats whatever they're called. I don't really think that Colors or Drive is based off of Red.
^^^
Sidney Garcia THE SONG. not the idea. theyre legit the same exact sound.
Sidney Garcia same I love Taylor and Halsey when I first heard Halsey song colors I never thought of red like ever until I seen this video and I still think it sounds nothing alike people are just trying to find something to get mad over cuz they are bored. Our society is ridiculous like literally they need to get a life I don't mean to come off as a rude person but it's true everyone is always over exaggerating about many things like recently they said stranger things a very popular serious I personally haven't watched it yet it seems good and I might watch it one day but anyways they are saying it is the most smoking in a movie like WTH
alecsanderel The person slowed Red down for colors AND drive!!! Go to the original song it is very fast paced and NOTHING like Colors AND drive.
WTH TWO ARTIST USED COLORS IN THEIR LYRICS WTH
Dont lie to yourself, the melody sounds exactly the same.
ashley grace when i listen "color" i think, shit this is the same song of taylor
Mariana Chacon N When I do, I do hear Red but there is an obvious difference between it. The story to it is also different. It's not all about lyrics and the background music and notes or etc. Like even if it has a noticeable similarity in a certain part of her song or maybe the whole song for u... There still is an obvious difference.
They sound similar. Obviously there are some differences but all around they sound very similar.
alondra. Red is slowed down in this video, go to the original music video for red and it is NOTHING like Colors and Drive.
These two songs are very similar, but instead of any hate, I'd rather see a mashup of both of these songs haha
cookies77814 they are about two different things!
Yall defending halsey saying that they both use colors 😂 😤They sound the same in melody and use almost the same words, but one came first 😏 😂👋
OG Plays yeah halseys she wrote the song way before
k is here No, taylor wrote the song before halsey
k is here Red - 2012 Colors - 2016 get your facts right
Taylon Swiftie oh Lord these Halsey fans are crazy
Tay Tay Swift taylor isn't the only one who uses colors to describe feelings, chill. halsey has been using colors for describing it before taylor "produced" "Red". "oh god these Taylor Swift fans are crazy"
Guys, seriously. This is ridiculous. There are a billion songs out there that can immediately remind you of another one, and even if Halsey did "rip off" those four notes in the chorus and the word "blue", it can't be considered plagiarism. She didn't take any quotes from the song or anything. And about drive, it just sounds like colors. A lot of artists (if not all) have songs with similar rythms ot chords. It's a thing. Chill the fuck outtt
yeah
mirandawatson99 its not about the lyrics man, its about the MELODY, its like the same thing
the problem is that just the people remind it when is about other artists, but if a new song from taylor swift is released and looks like the sound of other song.... The people forget "There are a billion songs out there that can immediately remind you of another one"....
It's not about the lyrics, it's about the melody, and actually most of the Halsey songs got the same melody as Taylor Swifts songs
Honestly listen to the four chord song by the axis of awesome
Omg both of them have colors in the lyrics!1!1!1
BurgerQueen Msp illuminati confirmed
BurgerQueen Msp yeah both of them talk about colors and shit but halsey's song sounds just like taylor's
Quinton Perrigen lmfao
And also have same sounds
they literally sound the same, stop ignoring the actual point, it's on the title of the video
Wow they both have beat drops at the chorus and both say the colors of the rainbow!1!1!1 Nah, This doesn't prove anything
Yes and the parts that share the exact same melody are "coincidence" and Halsey using the same 3 colours as Taylor to describe something doesn't prove anything
oMg im suPer shocked this happened 11!11!
Xavier G it doesn't really prove anything, either way. Most likely, the people just cherry picked the songs to try and make it sound like she was taking it from Taylor. The only thing that releatively sounds the same is the background music, that's it, everything else does not.
Dragon Legend tHaT dOeSnT pRoVe AnYtHiNg lmao
Bella Painter And they sound the exact same? Nope, alot of songs sound like that.
Okay but Halsey made that song before she was even super famous?? It was all over tumblr
Megin Marie facts
Yeah but even before that red was a thing....
Megin Marie true, but it’s still bashing another women. And she’s all about women empowerment right? How can you bash one women but day you’re a feminist? How can you put someone down but say we should be allowed to have a voice? How can you bully someone over dating harry styles? How can you judge some one for being in a relationship? For gods sake she does Cocain and she’s getting on Taylor and brining her down for being in a relationship. That’s fucked up dude. Don’t get me wrong she has good music and an amazing voice and she’s incredibly talented but I don’t like her personality at all
Cher Bassett Are u talking bout Halsey? When did she say this?🤔
shitty swiftie This just made me hate her even more. I knew u were trouble is not about Harry .Why can't she understand that!!!And she tries to Copy Taylor and Lana
Your spelling is problematic.
Nobi Monsales I WAS ABOUT TO COMMENT THIS AHAH
It’s not so problimatic as it is anti-climatic. (:
Do any of you smell something burning? Cause I definitely do. Although we're not in the same place. 😂😂😂
Hahahaha i was going to comment this but welp. Hahah
That awkward moment when my friend loves them both. seriously, stop
srsly!!!
I hate Taylor 😂
why tho
Are you telling your friend to seriously stop loving them or saying seriously stop pitting them against one another
SwiftiePie The Bieber's Muffin lmao fuck off I can love them both if I wanna
I'm a fan of Swift. idk I should hate Halsey because of the diss but there's something in her that I like lol
Anj Choi She regretted it ages ago. She knew it was childish so she regretted it immediately.
There’s nothing to hate.... it’s just about emotions and colors.. literally both songs are completely different
THINK AGAIN BOI
Guys, the problem isn’t just that they sound like each other, or that they have the same concept, it’s that it’s BOTH. There are tons of songs that sound the same (TiK ToK and California Gurls, for example) and tons of songs with the same concept (I can’t think of any right now, at least not anything that is as specific as this) but there are probably very few songs that not only sound the same but have the same exact concept. Also, Halsey is probably a Taylor swift fan, as she has covered some of her songs. There is no way this is a coincidence.
Ruby Raine halsey is NOT a fan. she has slut shamed taylor on many occasions.
Difference is, Taylor truly was authentic and real. Red was a huge song when it came out. The entire chorus using colors to describe feelings, that was Taylor's original work. Her ideas. Halsey 100% copied that.
Bitch no Ur an asshole 😂😂 Colors and Red have only 3 seconds of similarity. And honestly I don't think it's at all copied. If u listen to the rest of the line "Loving him was blue like I never know", then it sounds NO WHERE like Colors so shut Ur jealous ass.
You completely killed your argument by including that bit at the end. Why would she copy an artist she doesn't like? Sorry, but no dice for me
This was made by an account called "Halsey exposed". This person obviously wants to make Halsey look like a fake bitch, so he/she could've left out something else that Halsey said.
as if red isnt often used to describe love and blue isnt used to describe sadness/depressive things????? Taylor didnt make up the whole thing of using a color to describe an emotion lmao
the melody sounded really similar
The melody is soo fing similar
bro its about they sound smh
Ok, here's some real tea.....WHY THE FRICK DOES HALSEY SOUND EXACTLY LIKE TAYLOR SWIFT IN COLORS!?!?! ಥ‿ಥ
omg! wtf?! who knew taylor invented every single color EVER????
Taylor Swift's Style and Nick Jonas' Jealous sound a lot more alike and no, Taylor didn't copy Nick. Nick just put his song out before she does. Katy Perry's California Gurls sounds like Kesha's Tik Tok and this other song I forgot the name of. It's just that there are so many songs in the world that this would happen. No plagiarism.
Probably both got ghost writers tbh. That's usually why songs end up sounding so similiar
Alaa Atari no Taylor writes her own songs
Alaa Atari no Taylor writes her own songs
Dark Knight style came out before jealous
Dark Knight Style and jealous doesn't sound same. No wayyy.
"Is your fave problimatic?" No, because there are so many songs by now that not everything will be 100% different from each other. Songs can be similar, but still represent different things, and convey different emotion. What's truly problematic is your spelling. Sorry.
Both songs are beautiful!! Who cares
Wow the whole comment section is a bunch of triggered emo 12 year olds.
it's not she copied the whole lyric, so it's not like halsey sang "losing him was blue, missing him was dark grey"
I also love that fact that you say Drive isn't real/authentic/etc. It's authentic. Why would you compare Drive to a completely different song. Sure, it's the same notes but in a different key. A lot of songs do that. So why are you slamming Halsey? Why not slam another artist OR here's a good idea: don't slam any artists at all!
lmfao bye
matt keltos yes preach
Halsey deserves to be slammed. She calls herself alternative when she isn't. She acts like she's so unique and the only person to shave her head.
Lol What I honestly don't care how an artist acts I'm just into their work, the way they dress or the way they act doesn't concern me, its their life.
No no no no you are wrong she is a copy cat bye
Halsey was a huge 1D fan and was only 17 when she said that jusT SAYIN
ikr? she's way more mature now.
Guys correct me if I'm wrong, but I had been seeing the 'you were red and you liked me....' quote for YEARS before Halsey.
That's her own poem from her own tumblr...
Manahil Siddiqui halsey even clarified it in a video
Manahil Siddiqui bro it got viral from her own tumblr...so people thought I wasn't hers but originally it's her qoute I mean she's not that dumb to plagiarize such a famous line
she clearly took samples. if she didn't she would've been sued by taylor's legal team lmfao . so don't hate on either of them
Well for starters, Halsey can is an actual fucking queen and the fact that they both say the colors of the rainbow doesn't mean they are the same. It's like saying Blue by Eiffel 65 is the same song as Colors.
skylar bruh lol but she rigged lana del Rey no matter what
not surprised its halsey she copys alot of peoples songs
It's a very small chance in which that's a coincidence; thus, Halsey may just did that on purpose, though both are amazing singers, but at least Swift is proven to be more original, unless it's a coincidence,
Halsey isn’t authentic she copy lana national anthem too and now red? I’m not surprised
I think they are older enough to handle their personal struggles by themselves without the need of your intervention. Seriously, they aren't children, you don't need to be their spokesperson.
COLORS⁉️ WAS 🚫MADE ⁉️WHEN 🚫SHE⁉️WAS🚫A⁉️TEENAGER😘
Like... Way before 2012 lmao
because celebs dont lie
Well she was a teenager until 2014
Red is way older than colors
Unless taylor steel teenage girls notes
Alice Quinn so
Heart Hopes Taylor wrote red herself. Taylor doesn't need to take inspuration from a new comer
Maybe they do sound similar and what about it?I am a DIEHARD swiftie and i like halsey too and i know halsey didn't like Taylor but that's in the past and now she loves her(atleast i hope so) so actually you're the one that's "problimatic"
gr8 minds think alike ..
since when has taylor had a great mind lmfao
Summer Gazunis Taylor is an exceptional songwriter. I don't like her but please let's not compare her with this trash.
Melek xo though fools seldom differ
Tiffany Russell holy shit calm down Halsey is her own self and she’s a bad ass bitch I love her now you don’t have to love her but stop being a hater and just move on with your life
‘Great’ 😂😂 nice one lol
Imagine being this sad that you make an entire account to try to expose someone
alex redmon PREACH i say this everyday before going to bed bless u
Even when Taylor's the victim people blame her.But whatever Taylor is still more talented. And if u disagree u have to admit she is more successful
Leka Burduli yo Taylor started her career much earlier and she was much younger than halsey. and no halseys vocals are better. halsey is more authentic and sings about things that matter and her lyrics are ten times more descriptive then Taylor's...when really all Taylor sings about is crapy boyfriends...both are really talented but it's a matter of who you relate to more..no body plagarized anything they just used colors as descriptions and If you have a decent musical ear you can tell that they're far from copies...they're just a bit similar in melodies ..but the notes are different. doesn't mean its plagiarism it's just the same style.
Bayan Fakih I'm not trying to shade Halsey it's just that when Taylor's song sounds a little like some one else's every one goes and calls her things but when someone steals Taylor's song every one blames Taylor. I'm not saying that Halsey DID steal her song. And bra Taylor writes more than just about boyfriends
Bayan Fakih Taylor doesn't only write about boyfriends. Don't say things that you don't know. And Taylor's lyrics are very emotional and true I'm not saying that halseys aren't but. Taylor songs and lyrics and much more than break ups and relationships. So don't assume things
if you know the structuring of music and how songs are composed......you won't be surprised that many may sound similar.....calm down everyone
All of Taylor's songs played are slowed down, while Halsey's are not. Bare that in mind.
but the thing is Halsey's colors song has a different meaning to it and so does taylors
Even if u hate Taylor you gotta admit halseys song sounds too much like red
This is so stupid. "Omg! They both mention colors! She's copying!!"
*problematic
Colors have been associated with emotions for too long for this to be real
Her lyrics "You were read and you liked me cause I was blue..." lyrics isn't fake deep. It's actually real as hell if you've gone through it.
These two songs are very different in meaning, yes they do have moments that sound similar, but they are completely different songs, and if anything Taylor Swift should take using a song as inspriation as a complement as many artists sample and use each other as inspiration
It's not that the colors are similar, it's the sound. Like duh.
I love them both. They are so adorable.
Funny how you have to slow down and speed up the auto's to get them to sound similar...🤔
Taylor swift didn't come up with this type of color analogy. Both of them have they're strengths and weaknesses, just like every other human being in the world.
They have similar voices, but that doesn’t mean the songs are the same. Just because the beat “drops” during the chorus doesn’t mean they’re the same
The Haylor song was iconic!!!! Pretty much all Harry stans just really disliked Taylor and the song, which is literally a joke and to not be taken seriously, was wha we were all feeling. It’s light hearted fun .
they’re both amazing songs ,, we shouldn’t compare them ! (this is not a hate comment)
Taylor Swift's Wildest Dreams is literally a crappy version of Lana Del Rey's Without You.
Isabelle Winston SOMEONE FINALLY SAID THIS
Grace Teater Hell no! wildest dreams is another #1 hit from 1989 while without you is a flop that no one even knows about.
I've never even heard of Without You...
It also sounds a bit ripped off Avril Lavigne - Hot and Shake it Off was a copy of The Best Damn Thing - Avril Lavigne
Юлия that's so true and no one is really talking about that
Well in the amas she performed shake it off with Taylor
Wtf how can she I though Halsey and tay were bffs , how can she say
"f this Taylor bull shit"
😏😏😏😏😏😏
she likes blue so she's trying to represent how much she likes the tennis coach in this song. She used grey as she wanted to tell that the man she likes doesn't have any color in his life..... She tried to bring out how complicated her crush on the tennis coach is....... It doesn't have anything to do with Taylor's red and drive doesn't sound anywhere close to Taylor's.......
Like tell me.. over time with so many ideas already used. How can there not be some which sound the same. Red and Blue are used very often as representations. Colours too and it goes on. How many poems have u seen to not know that this happens. A friend of mine wrote a poem which sounded nearly the same as what I have heard before but she doesn't rlly use the internet much. It's just normal. like I love both of them and I don't like it when either gets bashed at or etc. It's only because these two(or one.. depending on u...) are popular that u notice this. I've seen many ppl who aren't popular and this doesn't rlly happen. Imagine I or someone wrote a song about love in using colours to represent something. Like don't tell me u haven't learn anything about representation. There's a lot. Yes I agree, but the usual ones we use... u will often hear them in poems and songs and etc. It's just normal, leave these two alone. They're both amazing singers.
And listening to both songs again. There is a very obvious difference to it. The story to it too is different. ( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ So please, just enjoy the music
People always riding Halsey. Grow up lmao
They really don’t sound alike
This would make sense to me in some way where Halsey is meant to be the alternative pop well what I mean is she's meant to take pop songs and write deeper lyrics ( this is basically what she has said ) and if this is a management thing where she's using familiar songs and twisting this (could be a management thing or an artist thing) I think that's why there is so much resemblance between many artists she has been linked to. Remember she liked lana, biggie , nirvana and she wrote the haylor song being a fan girl of 1D , so she was just expressing her anger or jealousy in a song
They're really similar but ngl they sound really good. I kind of like Halsey's song a little more tho.
I love Taylor more because I've known her longer but Halsey is pretty good.
halseys career foundation was literally about slut shaming women and then copying her a few years later ffmsnd
sampling
I don't think its copied.
I usually hate people who talk shit about Taylor like Kim, Kanye, diplo,demi etc
But I can never hate Halsey. She has the potential to write good songs
I mean sure Halsey might have gotten some inspiration from Taylor and stuff and the songs might sound similar but honestly so what?! They're both good.
They're both about colours.
this isn’t that crazy like it’s 3 words when the beat drops in the chorus that sounds similar. however halsey has done a lot of things that actually are problematic so why not call her out for that instead
So funny seeing this 6 years later n now theyre both friends lmfao
there are a shit ton of artists whose music sounds alike with other artists', why should we judge? we aren't musicians, we are fans. we listen to music. we don't create music. grow up, people, and learn that artists evolve and try new styles/genres.
Taylor swift isn't the first artist to associate colors with emotions
Halsey sings it better is what my pinion is ok
Dude if she draws inspiration from Taylor then good for her. She didn't steal Taylor's song. And if you would play the entire song side by side they are completely different
If you listen to both they are still very different, just because that one part is similar doesn't mean the entire song is copied and the same
She said terribol not taylor in 1:02
They actually do sound the same
I legit downloaded drive after this video lol
I wish people would hop of Halsey like get a life
Dylan Nicholson yeah cuz her music isn't even nothing great tbh
She is offended by hotel shampoo that no one uses because it’s bad for HER “BLACK HAIR”.... She needs to stop.
lol Halsey is amazing. her voice is angelic and her music omfg her lyrics are amazing. what can i say? yall hate on Halsey for nothing lmfaoo
Citlalli Valencia Hotel shampoo is super offensive
ᎪNᎪᏚᎢᎪᏚᏆᎪ ЅᏇIFᏆIE get over it, it’s old and it’s one thing that happened other celebrities probably did the same thing at one point in their careers so get over it
I am really upset with the fact that some people love to say bad about famous person.I hear both "red" and "color " song more than 20 times. they have huge difference of someone know about music. these people always make upset me.😐😐😐
Bruhh the way she quotes her song like if its emotional and poetic
Drive is just colors again
Omg, they just used colors in the lyrics
But nobody owns the names of colors??
nah. i think they're just similar album styles. and it's easy to accidently make a tune similar. plus, the songs are about two completely different things. i would start getting suspicious if the meanings were like exactly the same.
they literally just used the same colors..?
She is inspired by taylor swift.
They are two different vibes so tbh I don’t give a shit if they sound the same
Halsey did a parody of Taylor Swift songs when she was very new to the scene part of me thinks that she wishes she had Taylor’s success, although Halsey is very talented in her own lane.
A mediocre artist copying another mediocre artist
all the triggered 13 year old halsey fans in the comments lmao
^^
its not insane if she took inspiration Taylor is her favorite artis
i wouldnt go as far as to say she copied or plagiarized the whole song, just sounds like she took inspiration for the chorus. would be a lot less problematic if she wasn't shittalking taylor while doing so though.
omg theyre completely different calm down
Holy shit they are alike 😭
They slowed down Taylor’s songs just because of some point that isn’t there
cant people just express themselves without people having anything bad to say about it?? smhh
When they can’t even spell problematic correctly.....
ok but you do realize that halsey got famous cause of the cover she did of i knew you were trouble, which is by taylor, right? so that means she's a fan and got inspired by her music. so i don't think this should be considered "stealing", cause it's not.
When you love Taylor and Halsey. Seeing Halsey says "fuck this taylor bullshit".. I don't know. It rips my heart.
Daeborah Clare she said TERRIBLE bullshit
No Taylor
You all better not be fans of Ed Sheeran because he used the same chord progression as Marvin Gaye's song "lets get it on" for "thinking out loud" and I mean the exact same one, just faster(same case is the halsey and taylor chorus). Thing is, you can't copyright a chord progression. So that's one thing. Another thing, colours had been used to describe emotion in poetry for centuries now, so both their concepts are as original as inventing warm water. Most things today aren't original. It's taking something that's been done already and twisting it around enough so people think it's something new and original. Honestly, calm down. For example, Taylor's song "Willow", the music reminds me of some other song and I can't quite place it but it sounds hella familiar. Does it mean Taylor stole someones song? No, it just means that there's only so many ways one can arrange and rearrange existing notes.
Halsey queen
Halsey is a rat.
Lie again she’s a rat
Kandy it must be tiring hating on everything everyday......
Ewe no cringe
Franco Jesús Queen lmao....
