[@everydaytyrone]

I can't believe how this musician is getting hate. Guys, the people behind the lawsuit are the writers of the song! And you don't have the right to tell whether it does or does not violate copyright, it's up to the people at the court. Stop spreading hate! Just enjoy the music!

[@ThemeParkProduction]

Agreed! People need to stop hating on Mark...

[@greimalkin]

I think it is a big deal, it takes a lot of work to think of things and it is not fair if a shady person (or perhaps worse, someone who does not think very well and actually thinks that they came up with that themselves when they didn't ) steals it and makes millions off of it.

[@everydaytyrone]

+greimalkin it is a big deal but it does not mean that people should go around hating on other people. There is already so much hate in this world it is pretty tiring.

[@everydaytyrone]

+greimalkin what I mean is let the court do their thing. Can't we just sit back and enjoy the music?

[@EmantheHeartbreak]

But why are you mad at Matt. He isn't the one suing ed lol

[@sandilem5944]

Who's here to see if really this song sounds like Ed Sheeran's Photograph?

[@jessicaali2111]

Me. The choruses are undeniably similar but the rest of it not so much. I'm really confused as to why he would rip off another song when he has written plenty of his own hits...also why is this just coming out now? Makes me sad.

[@lindseythibodeaux7604]

That's not really the standard for determining infringement. That a substantial segment shares 70% of the same notes and chord progression is kind of a slam dunk. Also Sheeran didn't write Photograph by himself; it was co-written with Johnny McDaid, which means either or both of them may have been responsible for lifting the chorus.

[@Julia68yt]

It's been "out" for as long as Potograph is. Matt's been having his fun with it during his own performances, too, although he's not the originator of this law suit. He only seem to have put his own cheeky twist on the affair by mashing up his and Ed's choruses on several occasions. "Eire Creative" did a professional video that has the chorus alternating between Matt and Ed: "Matt Cardle VS Ed Sheeran" [ fKAvfGvJWGA ]. Starting at 51s.

[@tiffanysmith6361]

Amazing. A man with a voice as pure as gold. To me he is a contemporary bard with rare skills. A clearmusic revival. A real pleasure to listen to. Curious for his next album.

[@susiesnowcap5574]

[@tinypanda5037]

Agreed, I don't hear it.

[@DavidPayne81]

I read the article on the internet and was skeptical, as I thought there wasn't that much similar with Blurred Lines and Got to Give It Up, but yeah, anyone who says they can't hear it is either tone deaf or just kidding themselves. It's exactly the same. Doesn't matter that it's a small part of the song. It the fucking main hook of the chorus.

[@danteduru8544]

I agree, I clicked on this song ready to believe there was no way they'd sound the same. The start reaffirmed that belief, however, during the chorus I felt like I was listening to photograph. I've never been able to pick up on bits that songs copy, and this one was just plain obvious. Most of the people saying it doesn't have any similarities don't realise that ed isn't being sued for copying the entire song, but rather just parts of it. They also don't want to believe that the allegations could be true.

[@reminem77]

but hey, this song has released 1 year ago but why he sue ed now? cuz he wait photograph to be popular enough so he can win a 20$million case. matt is a loser

[@courtney101cheese]

Lets not forget it's not actually Matt that's suing Ed, it's the songwriters so don't leave any hate comments towards him.

[@dirtye1214]

Another great fact about Matt, is all his songs are so poetic. Very rare to find.Some artist will start out that way in their careers, but tend to drift off the path. Matt is such a unique artist that i don't think it is possible for him to drift away from what and who he truly is.

[@faithblackwood8049]

I do not think they are identical they sound just a bit similar but like every guitar song has some of the same chords it is what they have to work with the chords go nicely together and can make a good song. I do not think Ed Sheeran should be sued for having a good taste in music and using some of the same chords that he uses. I personally do not like these lyrics but the song does have amazing instrumental talent.

misslolohannah I'm majoring in Music Business in college, I can tell you with absolute certainty that if there were any allegations being made quite a while ago, information would have been revealed shortly. When Tom Petty was taking action against Sam Smith, the information was released to the public within days of the initial accusations.

[@HungArs23]

Matt should be thankful? Crazy. Why he has to be thankful? The fact is always a fact, the chorus of both song is exactly the same And even if you are right that they have known it for long, this could not change the fact. Business is business, you made mistakes and you pay for it. Simple as that. Why do they have to take legal action right away after Photograph released if they can wait and see if this action is necessary? And if they know that the benefits will be huge if they can wait, only idiots dont do that. Stop defending Ed by saying he is genius or sth like that. Argue base on the fact, pleas

[@Julia68yt]

Ed's song got artificially hyped to high hell bc it was set to become a movie track, too. That also might be the reason why the label/Ed chose to let the issue drag on for 2 years without acknowledging efforts from the chorus writers (not Matt) to get in touch. coz slapping an officially disputed song on a movie might not have gone over so well with the film studio. Promo stunts have become a self-serving farce, and everyone cries how they're burning money doing it, still they can't help themselves. Matt otoh kept his head down bc he literally had better things to do when the law suit hit. He'd just started his UK tour and even tho he could've done with a bit of promo for that, he cut off all media outreach for over 2 weeks and focussed on making music. He's been pretty consistent with shying away from hyped stunts, too.

I love Ed Sheeran so much. I thought this was going to be like the lawsuit against Justin Beiber. I was prepared to hear one or two notes similar and feel like it was ridiculous like everyone else. But wow...that chorus is almost note for note. I don't know if Ed co-wrote Photograph (might have been a cowriter that came up with the melody), or even when he wrote the song (I know it was about a past relationship that was several years ago, so if he was to have written in whilst they were in relationship this song could have easily just hit the market). Regardless, I feel bad for both parties. As a songwriter myself, sometimes I hope a chorus I write isn't already out there!! But yeah...poor Ed AND poor Matt. Hope everything works out.

How did you find me? You came out of nowhere like lightning, It's kind of amazing how you found me, Through all the noise somehow. Oh, and how did you see me? Broke through the darkness, And you reached me, It's kind of amazing how you found me, Through all the strangers somehow. Funny because we all found this song through social media coverage on the lawsuit

[@wwelover3318]

Omg 😂

[@wendystet311]

😁😉

[@blurrypolar2926]

yup lol

[@decyliashylame]

Amazing 😂😂

[@rnentertainment3252]

Like an AMAZING coincidence

[@Starf3ll]

Love this song... and I am not appreciate musician who couldn't respect originality of creativity, ... keep move on Matt.. you deserve the best...

[@rightflipperleftflipper3188]

Matt Cardle is not the person who sued Ed Sheeran. In fact, he commented that Ed Sheeran is a very talented musician. Please stop disliking his video because he deserves better. Both songs' direction are different. I like both.

[@husnuljahneer]

Let’s give this good heart some likes guys. ♥️ Delusional ed fans are disliking for no reason.

[@efcfan4649]

2010 was my favourite year of x factor and I am only listening this for the first time now!! Why???

[@therunawaykid6523]

And that falsetto at the end eargasm

[@blackgothicrose89]

I started laughing hysterically when the chorus started. This is incredible. I hope Matt made bank

[@Julia68yt]

Since he isn't the writer of the actual chorus melody it wasn' his law suit. But the actual writers are now 15% owners of Ed's royalties, plus probably a decent amount for damages.

[@aprilhickman5969]

I really like both songs!!! I'm glad this song is getting exposer. It really is a nice song.

[@preetiagarwal5178]

How did you find me...? Inside the pocket of my ripped jeans.😂 . . I actually loved the song. It's really very underrated song.

[@VarunSharma-fh4vv]

Someone already commented this above..one more plagiarism case... smh.

[@erinwolf1563]

[@neilhubbard698]

Matt Cardle is a talented artist in his own right and he should be more popular than he is because he sings songs from the heart. Im not a massive fan as such but this song is fantastic and the stupid politics that goes on in the music industry, is not stopping Matt from doing his own thing which is a lesson to us all. anthotyher artist that has more talent than Fame and success is Dencie person form five star. There are many taklented people but such people enjoy their music.....

[@emilyelizabeth7891]

Ed is a king , music is here to bring joy, stop being obsessed with money

[@KilisKitchen]

Thank you for such a beautiful song.

[@angellydon5822]

omg the chorus is legit photograph

[@westonhamilton8073]

Who is here for the lawsuit? You know you are, no one else was here before.

[@syaf9610]

Who's here for the original chorus.. Matt voices always touch my hearts.. 😭😭😭

[@asiriperera7735]

I love this song!!! The first time I heard it was in 2014 when my dance group did a choreography for it.... For me, nothing can replace it.

[@AECPH]

I'm here for Ed but this song is Amazing! Like literally.

[@kanishkaparashar1922]

We can't blame Matt Cardle THE CHORUS SOUNDS VERY MUCH SIMILAR. I don't think he did this coz of jealously. Seriously Sheeran fans (I'm one too) cannot accuse this man like this.

[@Commander_Cat]

matt is not the one suing.

[@punkumang305]

its the song writers suing Sheeran not Matt.

[@whitelordroth9967]

+umang punk Matt's one of the songwriters lol

[@jsdail]

The song writers are greedy bastards.

[@handizzle2606]

True but they could've sued Ed ages ago,probably doing it now after Ed is more popular. -_-

[@tingnice338]

Just Beautiful. An acoustic version of this song would sound so cool too!

[@Venserql]

I heard this song in a mall and the melody was stuck in my head for days. Then I found Ed Sheeran's Photograph and thought that was it. I was waiting for it to take off in the end but it never reached the highs so I was puzzled. I was searching for alternate version and covers until I finally figured out I had the wrong song and it's kind of amazing how I found it in the end.

[@Julia68yt]

+Venser Ed's been very naughty.

[@Vinesy]

How has it taken two years for the writers to realise Ed Sheeran has ripped this off. Photograph was a huge song.. I don't get it

[@fetus_yoda]

Yeah. The chorus is practically the same. Instantly recognisable. I don't understand why it took them this long...

[@anniep9025]

Coz it isn't ripped off. Aside from one line which is vaguely similar if you really listen for it, Amazing is just a very bland pop song that sounds just like a bunch of other bland pop songs. Not Amazing at all - even the name is unoriginal!

[@harlekkin5500]

Whatever. Keep denying the bloody obvious.

[@caliguuurl87]

Probably because of the movie trailer.

[@fetus_yoda]

Annie are you serious? Grow up. Apart from the lyrics the chorus is exactly the same. Clear your ears out.

[@wanjac]

*Congratulations* you both are in my uni's syllabus now under intellectual property infringement. Now i have to study bout you both for exam. Life's great

[@LisaGTrueCrimeGuru]

They should have Shape of You and that Oh Why song! Also the New Zealand National Party's Lose Youself ad.

How did the exam go?

[@wanjac]

@ can't remember the exact question, but it was okay

[@ericjordan9090]

luckily for him he is instantly famous all over again. his song will probably be in the radio next week because of the lawsuit and news articles

[@UkuleleKaya]

I love how everyone is here cuz of Ed Sheeran and not for Matt Cardle... Ed Sheeran just gave Matt Cardle thousands of accidental views.

[@Blahblahblahblah1599]

Everyone wanted to hear the original.

[@hunginh344]

Yeah I actually don't know who is Matt Cardle. It's because I really admire and love Ed music. And the fact that he is sued for stealing people music sounds irksome to me.

[@Blahblahblahblah1599]

Matt Cardle won the X Factor. You think it is annoying when people get caught doing something illegal? Let me guess, you are a Hillary Clinton supporter.

[@madhatt3r29]

lol I'm with you on that

[@nguyentrikhang6608]

yah , me too ... love Ed :")

[@H-H-H.]

This song deserves 1.2B views

[@MaldoDave]

All of you saying Ed Sheeran ripped this song are just saying it because there is a lawsuit. I'm not a fan of Sheeran's music but as a musician I have to say the similarities are minimal and just by coincidence. I invite you to listen to the Axis of Awesome "Four Chord Song" and see how every pop song ever fit into the same four chords. This lawsuit isn't going too far. (My opinion).

[@mikeydurden]

If the robin thicke blurred lines lawsuit could win this definitely could.

[@newpianotutorials]

Note how it's the same bloodsucking lawyer bring the case to court

[@Bboi3294]

disagree :) the similarities is so big it is easily noticeable if you listen to both songs wholly.

[@htghjk226]

If you truly believe that the similarities are so minimal that they are insignificant , you either haven't listened to the song or you are an awful musician.

[@Mister008Gaming]

Couple of things: 1. Don’t leave dislikes on this video because of things that don’t have to do with this song’s singer. The songwriters sued Ed Sheeran, not Matt. 2. As far as I’m concerned, Ed is guilty of plagiarism. I say that as a fan of Ed Sheeran. 3. This isn’t the only song Ed has been accused of plagiarizing. There’s others like Let’s Get It On, Oh Why, etc.

[@jamescanares4396]

At last! Controversy that introduces me to more good music!

[@Julia68yt]

This channel has lots of it, too. Definitely check out the cover of "Uninvited" and you will get the full measure of this guy :)

[@ruankh]

deeply in love with his voice... something absolutely incredible!

[@brena4665]

The original Photograph song. Love Ed Sheeran. Hes a legend but Matt Cardle owns this song. Fab song. Love Matt

[@kateFGMP]

I was like: It sounds nothing like Photograph, untill 0:50 - 1:08. And that It is

[@jamiengo2343]

kateFGMP that would be the chorus lol

[@Julia68yt]

and pretty much everything from 1:45 to 4:00. Because that's what choruses do.

[@gachadxnizzx3689]

1.25x playback speed

[@myrarodriguez8202]

😂

[@kezziekz]

yes

[@carolclare1281]

This is a beautiful song. Photograph is definitely a copy of this

[@killahsam718]

7 thousand Ed Sheeran fans gave this song a thumbs down because they obviously didn't listen to the song. I love Ed Sheeran but this song is"Amazing"

[@thesamuelong10]

come on m8, i am a fan of ed sheeran but liked this song so much

[@synthesizerpatel7405]

There are literally millions of songs in existence, some will inevitably share similarities. And of course songwriters will inevitably get influenced by other songwriters, both consciously and subconsciously. I don't think that's a reason to kick up a fuss. Unfortunately, with Marvin Gaye's family suing for Blurred Lines and Tom Petty accusing Sam Smith of plagiarism, I think the precedent has now been well and truly set; from now on songwriters will feel like they're treading on eggshells and will constantly be asking themselves "Oh wait, does this part sound too similar to this song?" and "Is that chord progression too close to that song?" It could seriously affect the quality of songwriting. Artists will end up altering a catchy melody for fear it sounds vaguely like one in another song, whilst others will just not bother writing songs out of fear of being accused of plagiarism. I hate greedy, deluded people and the people making these sort of claims are greedy and delusional.

[@sunday461]

It's kind of creepy how you said nearly exactly said everything I had on my mind. But seriously, preach dude.

[@adeang6071]

Couldn't have said it any better, why don't people just chill out and enjoy the music...

[@lastsaiyanleft]

The whole Marvin Gaye family is just a cluster fuck of greed.

[@jellyboy123]

i agree with you 100% this type of thing should stop. I write songs and the song writing community are paranoid you can't bring out a song unless someone sues a person its gone out of hand.

[@thomasDSoundDesign]

artists can no longer can answer the question "who are your influenced you?" out of fear of being sued.

[@teczdn]

origin of Photograph. I like this one and his sound more. Clean and Pure.
