When You Love Somebody Horn Riff

I swear Prince blatantly stole the keyboard riff from Billie Jean on this song. I also feel like nobody noticed because it's actually such a half-assed effort that nobody even cared....

Also in Michael Jacksons song "Hollywood Tonight" I swear I hear the keyboard riff from When Doves Cry...starting at :34 seconds.

Maybe I need to get my ears checked, what do you guys think?

I c where u're coming from but i'm not sure any of those two "rips off" were intentional.
