Disappear was recognized as plagiarism during the Eurovision song contest, because a German show called, “Tv Total". It had a candidate, Steffi List. She had an approximately same melody, at the chorus in her song and was published by the show in the beginning of 2008.
However, the producer and the writers of the “Disappear” song stated to NDR, that the melody of “Disappear” was already composed in January 2006 and with a little refinement the song was ready on November 2007. One expert said that the melody was too short to be considered plagiarism. The Universal Music continued that no one else had the demo of this song, before thr No Angels.
The accusation was therefore droped.
Disappear's music genre: Pop
