The heirs of Marvin Gaye have no plans for a new trial. But they find that the hit Happy Pharrell Williams also smacks of a Marvin Gaye number appears.
Tuesday won the relatives of Marvin Gaye still a plagiarism case by Pharrell Williams and Robin Thicke. A US jury ruled that both musicians a song of the deceased soul singer had plagiarized.
Now the heirs argue that the world hit Happy similarities with Is not that peculiar , a song by Marvin Gaye in 1966. “I’m not going to lie about it, I think the songs are alike,” says daughter Nona Grey in an interview with US television channel ET. The ex-wife of the soul legend, Janis Gaye, shares this opinion.
But they are still considering legal action. “We’re not,” said Janis Gaye. “Today we are happy.”
Pharrell Williams and Robin Thicke incidentally appeal against their conviction for plagiarism. They maintain their view that “Blurred Lines” an original song is theirs, and not a copy of Got to give it up .
