Is there a link where you can listen to the author's original recording? It would be nice to be able to compare it to the Gaga song.

Just found this - http://www.tmz.com/2011/08/05/lady-gaga-judas-lawsuit-song-c... - sound pretty different to me.

Thanks. I listened to that clip of the author's song and then listened to the entire four-minute-long Gaga song (which I'd never heard before). Maybe it's because I'm not a musician/composer, but to me they sound nothing at all alike.

I guess there is some suspicious circumstantial evidence, if the author's story is reasonably accurate, and I haven't heard the entire original recording — but based on that short clip no ordinary person would ever think that Gaga's song had been inspired by, let alone plagiarized, the earlier song.
