This is a weird one.

Kelly Clarkson -- who is stopping by Sandstone on July 15 as a part of Lilith Fair -- is leaking new demos like crazy. Her newest one actually sounds a bit like Arcade Fire's "Rebellion (Lies)." Actually, that's bullshit; it sounds a lot like Arcade Fire's "Rebellion (Lies)."

In other Arcade Fire news: the band will be going on tour this summer in support of its forthcoming album, The Suburbs, which is out on August 3. The band is headlining tour dates in Boston, Philadelphia, New York, Atlanta, Nashville, and Columbia, Maryland. You can also catch them if you're headed out to Lolla this year in Chi-town.

I agree with you Jay!! I've heard Arcade's song years ago and it did not click when I heard Kelly's song. It's not even the same tempo. They use some of the same chords but I doubt a G major is copy written.... people are just trying to cause something out of nothing.

I know I'm not the only one that doesn't hear any similarities, right? Of course, I suppose Arcade Fire needs some attention. If they could only get that attention from making better music instead...
