In recent years, tons of big hit songs have become subject to copyright lawsuits, as other songwriters claim similarities between those big hits and their own tracks. The latest target of one such lawsuit is Ed Sheeran, whose “Shape Of You” was the biggest-selling single around the world in 2017. Sheeran already gave retroactive “Shape Of You” songwriting credits to the writers of TLC’s “No Scrubs,” but when two lesser-known British songwriters took Sheeran and his collaborators to court, they fought back. This morning, the London High Court ruled that Sheeran did not rip “Shape Of You” off from Sami Chokri and Ross O’Donoghue, writers of the 2015 song “Oh Why.”
