This mash-up of Olivia Rodrigos Good 4 U and Paramores Misery. Rodrigo official acknowledged Swift’s somg “Cruel Summer” influenced her track “ deja vu.” With the updated writers credit, “Cruel Summer” writers St. Good 4 U (stylized as good 4 u) is a song recorded by American singer-songwriter Olivia. In July, she shared ther writer’s credit with another popular singer, Taylor Swift. This isn’t the first time Rodrigo updated the writing credit for one of her sour tracks. According to Rolling Stone, even before the official release of “good 4 u,” both teams were already in contact with each other. The writing credit for the song was already updated at ASCAP. Hit songs like Sam Smith’s “Stay With Me” and Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars’ “Uptown Funk” saw songwriters retroactively added to their credits - the latter song twice.Today, the writers of the emo classic, Hayley Williams and her former bandmate Josh Farro officially received writing credit for the teen star’s hit sing “good 4 u.” The news were announced via and Instagram story by Warner Chappell Music, saying, “Huge shoutout to our writers Hayley Williams and Joshua Farro.” Williams later shared the post with the comment, “Our publisher is wildin’ rn.” Retroactively-added songwriting credits have become increasingly common in recent years, as intellectual property lawsuits involving music have become more forensic and yet less predictable, particularly when argued before a jury of ordinary people who are not music experts, as evidenced by the back-and-forth with recent lawsuits involving Katy Perry’s “Dark Horse,” Robin Thicke and Pharrell’s “Blurred Lines” and even Led Zeppelin’s “Stairway to Heaven.” While Perry and Led Zeppelin have largely beaten back copyright-infringement suits involving those songs, they can drag on for years and rack up thousands of dollars in legal bills, which is why the path of least resistance is often to settle out of court. Now, the song is taking on a second life due to its popularity on TikTok and the Rodrigo interpolation. “We feel like it’s time to move away from it for a little while.” She had said previously that she no longer felt a connection to the song’s lyrics, which she had written as a teenager. Somewhat ironically, Paramore announced in 2018 that they were retiring “Misery Business” from their live sets, at least “for a really long time,” Williams said during a concert in the group’s hometown of Nashville. Origin On May 14th, 2021, 'Good 4 U' released as the third single off Olivia Rodrigo's 2021 album Sour along with a music video (shown below). While their names were not listed in the song’s credits on Spotify at the time of this article’s publication, they do in the ASCAP Repertory database. The song became massively popular on TikTok in the months following its release, as well as garnering criticism over sounding like a rip-off of the pop-punk band Paramore. While reps for Rodrigo declined requests for comment, a source close to the situation tells Variety the credit is actually an interpolation - which is essentially an element of a previously recorded song re-recorded and incorporated into a new song - and that the two parties were in touch before “Good 4 U” was released.
