Cover songs. They aren't plagiarism but a different rendition of an original. I listened to Adele's "Someone Like You" and compared it to the popular cover band, Boyce Avenue's rendition. I found adele's to have more piano. While Boyce Avenue had more violin and guitar. They also changed some words, because Adele is a woman and Boyce Avenue is a man. I played both at the same time. At some points Boyce Avenue picked up the tempo and vice versa.
Adele had the stronger voice, and more music editing in her song. Boyce Avenue had a cleaner version with the violin. It seemed as if, going on, Boyce Avenue's cover had a little faster tempo because of the violin. Where Boyce Avenue has pauses in voice, it's in music too for Adele, she only has pauses in voice. Later in the song Boyce Avenue added a little bit more, not of lyrics but of another "ooo" or something like that, while Adele moved onto her other verse. Boyce Avenue added a few repeats to make it their own however the cover was similar enough to still sound good. The cover is never as good as the original but they can always try.
