Gaye’s family is threatening to sue Thicke and his “Blurred Lines” collaborators, the rappers Pharrell and T.I., claiming their No. 1 song is essentially a remake of Gaye’s 1977 disco hit, “Got To Give It Up.”
The “Blurred Lines” collaborators took a preemptive strike against Gaye’s heirs by filing a complaint in a California court last month asking a judge to determine that “Blurred Lines” does not copy Gaye’s song or take his composition without credit.
after heard this news, I felt grey color of Music secenes.
If it has slightly similar points between some of songs, their family can say so.
What will happen after that, the both of fan of them are trying to listen their music. It could be activate music secene.
I think it is nice for old songs and new songs.
because now we(human beings) can listen only a little sounds.
if we have dolfins ears or something like that , it goes to bear differernt types music though.
actually, we can feel the sounds of that can't hear.
“The keys are different. The tempo is different. The structure is different,” Thicke’s attorney, Howard King, said at the time. “So from a legal standpoint, they’re not the same song.”
While they await the judge’s ruling, the “Blurred Lines” singers have found an ally in another music legend who knew Gaye well, Stevie Wonder.
“It’s not the same song,” Wonder told a TMZ reporter this week.
OKAY! Mr. Wonder is perhaps right. He is the legend of live.
“I’m a huge fan of Marvin Gaye. He is a genius. He is the patriarch,” Pharrell told reporters on the red carpet earlier this month at New York’s Fashion Week.
“If you read music, all you have to do is read the sheet music. It’s completely different.”
OKAY! if it differnet, why these are on articles?
an act of self‐advertisement？？？
