Rafael Bittencourt was elected one of the auditors to prove the plagiarism
Rafael Bittencourt, guitarist of Angra, is preparing a technical report that want to prove that Adele's song "Million Years Ago”, is a plagiarism of the Toninho Geraes song "Mulheres".

“There are too many coincidences for it all to be nothing more than pure coincidence”
