I was at a store today, and they played Nat King Cole’s O Come All Ye Faithful and Ray Conniff’s Hark the Herald Angels Sing, and they have some striking similarities to some of the JW songs. I would not be surprised if they are doing copyright infringement. Let me know if you guys find what song it sounds like.
SONG 80
“Taste and See That Jehovah Is Good”
The Sweetheart tree- Henry Mancini
Oh wow. I pulled that Mancini song up on YouTube and felt sick to my stomach almost immediately. I could only bear to listen to the first 10 seconds. 🤢 I used to sing the kingdom melodies all the time. Now when they pop into my head I make them go away by replacing them with Xmas songs, year round. 🎄
This really seems like too much.
This💯‼️
Love Henry Mancini. Pink panther.
Certain songs played as movie backgrounds remind me of the Kingdom Hall
Then there is the purchased music used by the organization..for the theme song for the grand conclusion of the 2016 Regional convention
Audiomachine, song: Eternal Flame, from their epica album..
I just listened to the music and couldn't find any similarity to any music I've heard at assemblies or congresses.
Here you go...from audiomachines Wikipedia page.

I love this piece of music. I am very tempted to have it playing in my car next time I see my pimi sister and see if she picks up on it. 😆
I keep that one on my Spotify list I play when PIMIs come over. If they ask about it I can say the org bought the music from Satan's world.
my observation about those songs is that the sister woman songs seem soo delicate, depressed, emo, crap. so weird...actually the man singers are stupid too, country shit songs,,and yes they copy some opera and that guy that sings something about you raise me up or something like that.
Oh totally. I’ve been meaning to make a list and play them when at home to find the songs I think they are similar too
The old song book (pink cover) had tons of re-worked older “Christendom” songs/melodies. They only way you’d catch it is if you’d been to other churches.
All I know is that hymn 93, "Bless our meeting," sounds perfect if you try singing it to the rhythm of "Ciranda cirandinha" (in English: Ring a ring o' roses)...
The original song "True friends" had a lot of similarities with Toy Story "You've got a friend in me".
Just saying
michael kackson used some melodies from the kingdom melodies , gone too soon heal the world and keep the faith are clearly inspired by some of the old ones
One of them sounded like Jurassic park and another was like the theme tune to Police Academy. I'm not going to put myself through the torture of finding out which ones. I've been out 6 years and I'm glad that the songs don't often pop in my head or cause me any distress. Id like to keep it that way.
