Article: Bregović's Plagiarism
The songs in question: The first one is from Arizona Dream. The second one is the track by Enrico Macias, that Bregović was sued for plagiarizing.
A little additional context on the inclusion of the Enrico Macias clip above: we talk in the episode about a suit against Goran Bregović by Enrico Macias which claimed Goran plaigerized Enrico's "Solenzara" for his "In the Death Car" – the suit was settled in favor of Macias in 2015 for one million euro.
