Staind vs. Le Roi Soleil

This one comes from Liza in Athens, GA.

She writes in to point out the striking similarity of Staind’s 2003 single “So Far Away” and a song called “Mon Essentiel” from the French musical Le Roi Soleil which premiered in 2005.

    WOW, sounds like Staind has a pretty good case for copyright infringement.
