Ed Sheeran wins copyright case over claim he copied part of Marvin Gaye's Let's Get It On for Thinking Out Loud

The British singer denied he stole parts of Gaye's song for his hit single, saying he would end his music career if he lost the case.

But Sheeran told a lawyer for the claimants: "If I’d done what you're accusing me of doing, I’d be an idiot to stand on stage in front of 25,000 people."He discussed what would happen if he lost the case: "If that happens, I'm done, I'm stopping.
