Okay, first listen to Ke$has ‘Tik -Tok’

Then to Katy Perrys ‘California Gurls’

Well, that’s what I call song recycling… right? One interesting point is, that according to the wikipedia entries (always take these with a grain of salt) the writers are NOT the same:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Gurls – Katy Perry, Bonnie McKee, Calvin Broadus, Max Martin, Lukasz “Dr. Luke” Gottwald
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tik_Tok_(song) – Kesha Sebert, Lukasz Gottwald, Benjamin Levin

But the producers are in both cases Dr. Luke and Benny Blanco
Pretty interesting, right?
