Bloggers accuse Alexander Rybak of plagiarism
Blogger and pianist Alena Hanchykava maintains that she has caught this year's Eurovision winner Alexander Rybak with plagiarism over his song Abandoned. The blogger (kotjonok on LiveJournal) compared Rybak's song with a soundtrack from the Soviet flick We Will Live Through Monday (1968) written by Kiril Molchanov and found a very close similarity. We suggest that you compare these two songs.
It has been reported that the son of the Soviet composer, Vladimir Molchanov) said that Rybak's producer allegedly contacted him over the use of his father's music. However, Vladimir Molchanov gave no permission.
