I assumed you were making a joke about Skeelo's use of a few lyrics from Buffalo Springfield's "For What it's Worth" in his song, "I Wish I was a Little Bit Taller."
Skeelo:
Hey you, what's that sound
Everybody look what's goin' down
Ah yes. Ain't that fresh
Now everybody wants to get down like that
Original:
It's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's goin' down
Clearly Skeelo "stole" that line. I thought your post was pointing that out. My response asked you how come it's a problem when he does it, but when Elvis and however many other rock musicians who have "stolen" from blues and jazz artists do it, it's okay.
