Lady Antebellum sold 480,922 copies of Need You Now. In fact, Need You Now is a great song and it has the same vibe, same key as Alan Parsons Eye In The Sky.

Need You Now (50 second mark) Eye in The Sky (1:27 mark). This is far from plagiarism, it’s just a powerful hook and melody line. This is why it’s a #1 song. We need more of this…

Speaking of Alan Parsons, does anybody remember him? He engineered Pink Floyd’s The Dark Side of the Moon.
