ED SHEERAN BEATS ‘LET’S GET IT ON’ COPYRIGHT CASE AT APPEALS COURT: ‘BASIC MUSICAL BUILDING BLOCKS’

Ed Sheeran’s “Thinking Out Loud” did not infringe the copyright to Marvin Gaye‘s “Let’s Get It On,” a federal appeals court ruled Friday (Nov. 1), saying the two songs share only “fundamental musical building blocks” that cannot be owned by any single songwriter.
