The funniest thing about that entire episode is that Robin Thicke and Pharell were the ones to initiate the original suit.

LOL.

I listened to just two seconds of it and heard nothing other than Marvin Gaye.

A clear and hardcore rip off if there ever was one.
It sounds like they sampled the actual track.

Yap this..
If this song is a rip-off then 99% of the music what is released today is also a rip-off..

You would have to be musically deaf to not notice the bass line is almost an exact copy.

And to see how certain you are about it is just amazing.
Trust me you are not musically inclined.

those two numb nuts should have never taken it to court and settled! When I first heard the beginning of the song, it reminded me of Marvin's song.

They tried to land a pre-emptive strike in getting the courts to recognize "Blurred Lines" as an original composition, which in turn would have made it more difficult for Gaye's cash grabbing family to sue. Obviously, ballsy move failed...lol.

I learned to play on two instruments while studying theory also. But of course you are a well known music producer writing songs for Madonna and others so who am I talking to :D

No way they have to pay anything to the family of Marvin Gaye... Songs are similar but not the same, so everything is ok...

you are reaching... every baseline is almost identical.. there hasn't been an original baseline since bootsy...

If that is the same than every single reggae song in history is also a rip off.

First, I'm going to spell this shit correctly myself before I continue.

Bass.

There!

No, every bass guitar line is not almost identical; that's nonsense.
But in general a bass line is not protected many times because it is part of a genre.
The genre in question here is, depending on who you ask, pop/dance/R&B.
However none of those genres are associated with a particular bass line.

Now consider "12 Bar Blues"; the bass line is not protected because it defines the genre and it has a historical precedent as it was used freely without challenge.
None of that applies to Marvin Gaye's song.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cPVbWjrU_Zs



The 12 bar progression like in Chuck Berry's "Johnny Be Good" is another example of a
genre being established through a history of free use.

they are similar but in no way should have his family been awarded 7million for it.
