Judge rejects Sheeran's lawsuit request

An American judge has rejected English singer and songwriter Ed Sheeran's request to dismiss a lawsuit accusing him of lifting from Marvin Gaye's 1973 classic Let's Get It On for his 2014 smash Thinking Out Loud, Reuters reported.

In a decision made public last Thursday, United States District Judge Louis Stanton in Manhattan said a jury should decide whether Sheeran, Sony/ATV Music Publishing and Atlantic Records should be liable to the estate and heirs of the late producer Ed Townsend, who co-wrote Let's Get It On with Gaye.
