When General Larry Platt auditioned for American Idol a few weeks back with his "original" song Pants on the Ground it sent shockwaves through the intronets of the intraweb (or the Internet as people call it...). The video went viral, splashing all over the frontpage of news sites, blogs or whatever other things on the internet. General Larry Platt seemed to have struck a cord with millions of people and fame was imminent.

...or so it seemed, DUH DUH DUHHHH! A few days ago, the Green Brothers of Highland Park, Michigan are claiming he stole the song from an original and copyrighted "Back Pockets on the Floor". MyFox Detroit reports that the brothers wrote to them stating the similarities between Platt's song and their own is not an accident and clearly the same shit...and I certainly agree. Now you be the judge and end this guys' 15 minutes before he gets sued, because then that would just be sad...he's 62 years old... :(
