The jury in the Ed Sheeran copyright infringement case — about whether Sheeran’s smash single “Thinking Out Loud” copied the classic Marvin Gaye song “Let’s Get It On” — deliberated for about five minutes Wednesday evening before the judge sent jury members home. The jury sent a note to the judge requesting that it break deliberations for the night and the judge granted that request around 5:10 p.m. The jury is expected to continue deliberations Thursday morning at 10 a.m.
Sheeran’s legal team has argued that the melodies are different and the elements used in both songs are common in pop music. Earlier, an attorney representing the family suing Sheeran asked the jury Wednesday not to be “blinded by the defendant’s celebrity.” “Mr. Sheeran is counting on you to be very, very overwhelmed by his commercial success,” attorney Keisha Rice said in her closing argument Wednesday.
