Why this pair

This is a pair from a publicly reported dispute. Public background: chords / melody; Publisher sought credit; no suit filed; Del Rey said in 2018 'my lawsuit's over'; no ruling. Sonalize's scores are measurements, not a view on any dispute.

How this was measured

Compared from the full recordings; Sonalize's fingerprint lookup confirmed both songs. The same engine runs in the Sonalize app on your own device. A score measures how alike two recordings are; it isn't a finding about copying, legal advice, or a rights clearance.
