When you're writing a song, how do you know it isn't just a song you've heard before but don't recognise? (infosec.pub)

I'm currently in the process of writing a song. I've got a tune and I'm putting the lyrics together but I'm always concerned that any tune I think of might just be another song I've heard somewhere randomly that I don't remember hearing.

Do I just have a shitty memory or is this a problem that other people have too?

Art is theft

All art is inspired by other art, it grows, evolves, eats itself, parodies life, informs living.

I wouldn't worry about it
