Regardless of views on his stuff, what an absolute joke this lawsuit is.
Really?
Multi millionaire I was homeless once Ed has completely ripped off this bloke. He would have been happy with some credits. I hope he wins this even with Eds Ipswich roots.

I’ve only heard Ed’s song - I take it that they are similar?

Are you serious? Using a similar combination of vowel sounds in a vaguely similar cadence for about three seconds in the post-chorus of a song is "completely ripping off this bloke"?

Inasmuch as they both briefly repeat the sounds "oh why", a phrase coined, as everybody knows, by the legendary Sami Switch.
That's the whole point. Unknown struggling artist Sami switch sends sound clouds of his stuff to people in Eds circles and then out of nowhere his work appears in possibly Ed Sheeran's most successful song. If a Successful artist samples music they have to pay for it. Very rich successful artists shouldn't just take from unknowns and not give them any credit, even if it's one second of their work.

I think you need to listen to the 2 songs again. It's blatant

"his work"...honestly. You know there's only a finite number of chords and notes in existence, right? At a certain point everything is going to sound a certain amount like something else. If copyright is distilled down to a level whereby any failed artist can lay claim to a three-second passage of vowel sounds and expect a co-writing credit when they hear something vaguely reminiscent somewhere else, creative industries might as well chuck in the towel.

If Mr Switch released his song now and it got to number one but it was him who copied Ed Sheeran, he would sue his b0llocks off. You keep calling him failed but that's more of a reason to fight for something that's been taken from you. It seems like there's a lot of it going on in the world right now. Big person wanting something that's not theirs but will take it anyway. I think Ed should just pay seeing as he likes to tell everyone where he came from. He also has history of this as well. He's ripped off several artists. Even his latest one withe Swift is apparently a rip off of a lesser known Eagles song.

I put these 4 chords together, and everyone nicked them...
