Like what would be the incentive to use blatantly copying if you know you're big enough to be noticed. He should really start using Shazam while writing his songs.

That's not how settlements work. It could be anything (whatever both sides agree to). But it's almost certainly not close to $20 million. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrawberryBlond 14,881 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Well, this was unexpected, I thought it was going to be Sia suing him. But here's the thing - I always find it highly suspicious when someone files a copyright lawsuit literally years after a song has been released. And when it's someone like Matt Cardle, you can't help but wonder if they aren't just looking to get back into the spotlight. It is truly very similar but at the end of the day, it's a generic acoustic guitar beat. There are probably other songs out there that are similar even though they had no intention in it. A lot of acoustic guitar songs sound the same. Which is why I can't understand why these types of artists keep getting signed because their sound is a dime a dozen, nothing stands out. Everything they make just sounds like rehashes of previous songs from artists like them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically speaking, I think only the lyrics of Cheap Thrills belong to Sia. The melody or production, rather, belongs to Greg Kurstin, her producer. And he seems like a pretty chill guy so I doubt he would. Why should Sia or Greg sue Ed? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, because the production from Shape of You is uncannily similar to the production of Cheap Thrills. I'd be fine if Ed had given Greg production credit on the song but he has not. And I seriously doubt that he and Steve Mac just so happened to produce the same melody that Greg Kurstin had 1 year prior. And then there's the fact that Ed has the nerve to say people steal from him in terms of music but the reality is that he steals from others. Inspired or not, give credit where it is due.
