I was assigned the error report https://secondhandsongs.com/error-report/23468 of Reza del Meletón

I don't understand why "Oye como va" was put up as an adaptation of "Chanchullo" or "Rareza del melitón".


According to ISWC and GEMA, Tito Puente is the author and composer of "Oye como va", not Cachao, although to us both melodies seem similar.


ISWC work T-070.160.611-2


GEMA work no .: 737221-001


Shouldn't the criteria of official sources be used?

In my opinion, the melodies are different.

Sharing is just a rhythmic basis.

Many pieces of the same genre can share a certain rhythmic cell and differ in their melody.

Currently it's set as "Partial adaptation: Element". If you disagree, please file a new error report.
