@IamFelicia269 @adambetters @AP Influence, vibe, whatever you want to call it.

Using your line of logic, Sheeran, Marvin Gaye, Elvis, The Beatles, Nat King Cole… anyone you want… should be 1) sued by and 2) paying copyright back-royalties to Beethoven’s descendants.

[michael brennan @michael1brennan]

@IamFelicia269 @adambetters @AP He was absolutely influenced by Marvin Gaye… what modern musician hasn’t been in some way? But you cannot copyright your influence, and therefore cannot win a lawsuit over it without actual evidence of infringement.

That’s all.

[michael brennan @michael1brennan]

@IamFelicia269 @adambetters @AP If intellectual property is infringed upon, you absolutely need permission.

Vibes, inspiration, and generic four-chord progressions are not intellectual property. That’s what this ruling states.

Sheeran didn’t infringe upon any intellectual property; no permission is needed.

[michael brennan @michael1brennan]

@IamFelicia269 @adambetters @AP This court decision specifically proves that he doesn’t need permission.

[michael brennan @michael1brennan]

Good. This is the right call. Now reverse the Blurred Lines decision. There are a finite number of combinations of music.

The Gaye estate is a flock of vultures. #EdSheeran

BREAKING: British singer Ed Sheeran didn’t steal key components of Marvin Gaye’s classic 1970s tune “Let’s Get It On” when he created his hit song “Thinking Out Loud,” a jury has decided. https://t.co/3zwam8QtCi

This song is everything to me and it doesn't come out for a week.

Jonas + Yacht Rock + Waffles = 🤯

#wafflehouse

[Jonas Brothers @jonasbrothers]

"Waffle House" was born from a simple but powerful idea: When you sit down with the people that matter most, anything is possible. This song isn't about a restaurant, it's about coming together with the people you love and making your dreams come true. https://t.co/xSWccSiyN1

[michael brennan @michael1brennan]

This is the best song I've heard in years and I will die on this hill. @The1975 #OhCaroline

[michael brennan @michael1brennan]

@jonasbrothers Like Waffle House needs to drop ASAP

[michael brennan @michael1brennan]

Cinderella stories make sports fun. PERIOD. #FDU

[michael brennan @michael1brennan]

Kelsea Ballerini on SNL right now. Wow. Absolutely crushing it.

Rolling Up The Welcome Mat is my favorite album of 2023 so far, hands down.

[michael brennan @michael1brennan]

This is hands down Mike Breen's best "BANG". What a moment!

[Stephen Curry @StephenCurry30]

7 years to the day... a moment I'll never forget. It's only right the 👑 of the "Baaang Baaang!!" got the first pair!! Mike Breen, thanks for everything you've done for our amazing game. We had to bring these back for y'all 🙌🏽
