Ed Sheeran breaks silence as he WINS copyright battle over Shape of You after being accused of being a ‘magpie’
The Sun says ED Sheeran broke his silence today after WINNING a copyright battle over his hit song Shape of You.
Sheeran, 31, and his Shape Of You co-writers denied ripping off songwriters Sami Chokri and Ross O’Donoghue and their 2015 song Oh Why.
Chokri and O’Donoghue claimed the chorus of Sheeran’s tune, which goes “oh I oh I oh I”, was nicked from their chorus “oh why oh why oh why”.
But in a ruling today, Mr Justice Zacaroli found the singer had not even heard the “Oh Why” song before writing his own hit and concluded he “neither deliberately nor subconsciously” copied the phrase.
