The song remained the same

Judge for yourself I don't find them similar enough to warrant a plagiarism claim. Anybody, could have come up with those three notes from the chromatic scale. It's pretty ridiculous. And Taurus is nowhere near the song STH is.

Mucho dinero en juego. Money makes the world go around.

Just about every modern song can be traced back to The Carter Family, or Louis Jordan or Hank Williams or Fats Domino or Chuck Berry or Robert Johnson or Woodie Guthrie. There is little that is truly original. Ok, Wuthering Heights by Kate Bush, maybe..

Good. I hate thieves.

Just had to use the pic of Robert’s perm, didn’t you?

Good. Ive heard Taurus and it's almost identical

Yawn
