Ed Sheeran has been ac- cused of ripping off the Mar- vin Gaye classic “Let’s Get It On” for his Grammy-winning hit “Thinking Out Loud.” Structured Asset Sales is suing the British singer-songwriter for a whopping $100 million.
According to the lawsuit, “Thinking Out Loud” report- edly features the same “melody, rhythms, harmonies, drums, bassline, backing cho- rus, tempo, syncopation and looping” as Gaye’s 1973 track.
“Let’s Get It On” was writ- ten by Gaye and Edward Townsend, who passed away in 2016. Structured Asset Sales bought one-third of the copyright for the song, which reportedly amounts to $100 million.
In 2016, Townsend’s family reportedly tried to sue Sheeran for implementing “elements” of Mr. Townsend’s song, however, they were unsuccessful due to a federal judge dismissing the complaint.
