The melody of "Over the Moon" is suspected of plagiarizing the British group Blue's old song "All Rise". The CCTV Spring Festival Gala crew revealed that Phoenix Legend also participated in the fifth rehearsal of the Spring Festival Gala, but the crew decided to take down the song during a subsequent meeting because after investigation, the crew found that the song contained 19 suspected plagiarisms. Regarding the controversy caused by the song's alleged plagiarism, Phoenix Legend's manager Mr. Deng firmly denied it.
Some people believe that the male rap part of "Over the Moon" is almost an exact copy of Blue's song "All Rise", and even the length is the same, 21 seconds. He Muyang responded: "He did draw on the popular rap rhythm, but it would be a bit arbitrary to say that the rhythm is similar to plagiarism."
