MANHATTAN, NY - Love crooner Ed Sheeran may soon be 'thinking out loud' in a Manhattan courtroom, as a jury will decide whether the multi-Grammy award-winning singer copied Marvin Gaye's iconic hit "Let's Get It On" for his chart-topping ballad. In the trial dubbed "Ed Sheeran's Copycat Court Extravaganza," the jury must determine if Sheeran stole from Gaye's sensual melody or if the dazzling ginger-haired charismatic singer simply conjured the silky love song from his everlasting well of musical genius. Sheeran is expected to testify at the trial and will assuredly use his charming British accent and lovable demeanor to convince the jury that the song emerged from his unparalleled songcrafting abilities. The trial is set to begin less than two weeks before the release of Sheeran's new album, which will certainly not benefit from the immense attention the controversy is already generating. The courtroom will be abuzz with anticipation as Sheeran steps onto the witness stand, likely armed with his signature miniature guitar to plead his case through song. Will his heartfelt melodies be enough to sway the jury, or will the evidence against him be too strong to shake off? Only time will tell in Ed Sheeran's Copycat Court Extravaganza. Not only is Sheeran's reputation on the line, but so are the royalties from "Thinking Out Loud," which have reached an astounding $20 million. However, it's the unwavering love from his fans that the singer-songwriter deeply cherishes, and the idea of disappointing them is what truly keeps him up at night. The trial is expected to run for several weeks, during which time the world will hold its collective breath waiting for the verdict. Will Sheeran emerge victorious, or will he be forced to pen a heart-wrenching ballad about the harsh realities of copyright infringement? Regardless of the outcome, one thing is for certain - the world will be watching Ed Sheeran's Copycat Court Extravaganza unfold.
