British singer, Ed Sheeran, has released a new album titled 'Subtract' soon after winning a copyright lawsuit in the USA over Marvin Gaye's song 'Let's Get It On.' The lawsuit was filed by the heirs of Ed Townsend's estate, claiming that Sheeran's 2014 hit single 'Thinking Out Loud' was similar to Gaye's hit track.

Sheeran had threatened to quit music if he lost the lawsuit but emerged victorious and immediately released his new album. Speaking after his win, the singer said, "We’ve spent the last eight years talking about two songs with dramatically different lyrics, melodies, and four chords which are also different and used by songwriters every day all over the world."

"These chords are common building blocks which were used to create music long before 'Let’s Get It On' was written and will be used to create music long after we are all gone. They are in a songwriter’s alphabet, our toolkit, and should be there for all of us to use."
