Good. Immensely flawed lawsuit to begin with.

[River 117,201]

I was hoping to see him retired

disappointed

As much as I wanted to see Ed Sheeran retired, I think this was the right call, the lawsuit was a bit dumb to begin with, like how many times are Marvin Gaye's people gonna sue everybody?

[PartySick 160,531]

Glad it failed simply 'cause it's not a precedent I want set...but we could have had him retire

Truly lose-lose for the rest of us

As much as we all hate Ed around here, thank GOD he won tbh. Would you want chords and note combos to be owned by the estates of old, dead musicians? Would you want Gaga (and everyone else tbh) to have to get special lawyer permission and pay a bunch of money to the descendants of some dead guy in order to put out any song?  The lawsuit set a terrible precedent

Aw, I really wanted him to quit music but also glad he won this stupid lawsuit... 

[Lanadelduck 1,999]

Really disgusting lawsuit.

He was never gonna quit anyway just more whining

[Dayman 6,179]

Thank God. I’ll buy a copy of his album just as a thank you for not settling the case out of court and pushing through and making the Gaye estate lose. Vultures bent on destroying the music industry just for a quick payout in court.

good, it was BS

[LaLuna 12,732]

I don't like his music but if you wanted him to be found guilty, then you're against songwriters everywhere, not just him. This trial was stupid to begin with.

[nATAH 49,739]

lets face it he wasn't gunna quit if he lost

if he lost this it would make room for many Gaga songs to be sued for using the same chord progression as other songs which many do  it was a rediculous claim
