Katy Perry – "Roar"
Sounds Like: Sara Bareilles – "Brave"
No amount of jungle-print underwear could distract from the fact that Katy Perry’s 2013 self-empowerment anthem “Roar” was not just a sequel, but basically a remake of Sara Bareilles’ equally themed therapeutic song. But what could have turned into a messy legal drama, eventually worked in everyone’s favor: “Roar” topped the Billboard Hot 100 while “Brave” landed on #23, which was still a big success for Bareilles.
