Just when singer Ed Sheeran said he's taking a break from social media and music, trouble comes his way.
Looks like he's being sued for $20million which is £13.7M over copyright. In this case the attorney just won the Marvin Gaye lawsuit over infringement on Blurred Lines.
The 25 year old singer has been accused of making a 'note-for-note copy' of a Martin Harrington and Thomas Leonard song called Amazing, released by X Factor winner Matt Cardle six years ago.
Ed's song Photograph came out in 2014 as part of the No. 2 album Multiply and has most recently been used in the soundtrack for big screen romance Me Before You.
I wonder what Matt Cardle thinks? Well turns out that the singer is not involved in the lawsuit, instead Harrington and Leonard have called in representation from Richard Busch, the attorney who won $7million (£4.8M) on behalf of Marvin Gaye’s family against Robin Thicke and Pharrell Williams in March 2015.
Good luck Ed Sheeran.
Well I still want to watch the movie 'Me Before You' the trailer looks great and just seems like a very good but emotional story line. Will you be watching this movie?
Take a listen to the two songs -
What do you think?
