Under Pressure / Ice Ice Baby
Because of this blatant rip off of real musicians like Queen and David Bowie, Vanilla Ice will forever be a dead man to me. Anyone votes for Iceman, and your are either crazy, stoned, or just doing it out of spite, hopefully the latter.

Comments about Under Pressure / Ice Ice Baby:
Whoever voted for Vanilla Ice should be hunted down & shot like a dog in the street. As should Vanilla Ice...

Ice Ice Baby is not a cover. People shold be voting for Vanilla Ice because the other song by David Bowie/Queen sucks. People who vote for David Bowie/Queen are just stupid.

Always I listen to the Ice I'm thinking think of F. Mercury, Queen, their songs, music and above all Lyrics. The point is that when one listens to VC one is recollecting the works of Queen, and never vice versa. The reason is not just about time or priority but art and its value. "Under Pressure" is a unique piece of music and VC is just a copy created without any attempt to say something new in music. What can we do about the world of total copying, the contemporary world?

Musians should not be credited for things they didn't create themselves or by someone they paid to write it. but then again
ice is not a musician, he is a one hit,song stealing, con artist that won't admit he made a mistake

I agree that "ownership" of ideas is ludicrous. We can only use the ideas around us, combine and recombine them, occasionally into products that are bought+sold but the ideas themselves have no handle.
But there seems like a proper way to do this and an improper way. The confusing part is that when it comes to writing the rules, the wolves are protecting the henhouse. When a label signs a guy like Vanilla, are they carefully considering the issues of originally and attribution, or are they just sniffing the legal air to see if Farmer FCC is around?
They're both great songs, both original in their own way, but I agree Vanilla was a dick not to credit where he got his hook. He could have made it a line in the song! He could have done something.
There was something sinister happening too, because none of the radio stations dared play "Pressure" while "Ice Ice Baby" was on the charts.
F*#% the industry, let's all just make music okay?

You'd better stop, collaborate and listen to what the Ice man has to say!
