The trial settling the case of whether Ed Sheeran’s “Thinking Out Loud” plagiarized the Marvin Gaye hit “Let’s Get It On” will never likely slip into concert mod…
Under examination from his attorney, Ilene Farkas, Sheeran described the composing of the song in 2014 as a quick and not deeply thought-out process. He said he had just emerged from the shower when he heard Wadge playing guitar chords and was drawn to join her start developing them into a song. “I remember thinking we have to do something with that,” he said, according to ABC.
In contention is the plaintiffs’ assertion that “Let’s Get It On” and “Thinking Out Loud” are rooted in the same four chords.
