Sure sounds to me like Ed Sheeran has again taken the key elements of somebody else's song. This time it's "Savannah Grass" by Kes.

Acoustic Version

      • Very interesting

  • By that logic you could say KES copied "Stand By Me" 

    Happens all the time!

    • Maybe he did.

      bugs

  • (Sigh). The tune is a basic chord structure that has been used time and time and time and time and...there is no similarity in baseline, melody or lyrics and any musician worth their salt know this fact. No one stole anything from anyone, you can only do so much variation using these basic chords which has existed before Savannah Grass was written. There is nothing distinctive for Kes to say they copied his tune. This is not the distinctive bassline of Sugar Boom boom which is recognised globally from the opening bars. No the said artists did not 'steal'  what is a natural chord progression. 

  • Yep they stole it. They will settle out of court. We won't hear a thing about it.

  • An acoustic version of the song was released yesterday...

  • Doh try dat Claude...Come better than dat...
