Jury selection is set to begin on Monday in Manhattan federal court for a trial over claims that British pop superstar Ed Sheeran owes a share of profits from his hit “Thinking Out Loud” for copying Marvin Gaye’s “Let’s Get It On.”
Heirs of songwriter Ed Townsend sued Sheeran, his label Warner Music Group, and music publisher Sony Music Publishing for allegedly ripping off Gaye’s classic, which Townsend co-wrote.
