Wow... this is the first I'd heard about the Michael Bolton v. Isley
Brothers (or whoever owns their IP) case... I wasn't familiar with the
songs to compare them, so... one visit to Napster was all it took. Here
they are for the rest of you to compare:
http://evolution-control.com/mp3/The%20Isley%20Brothers%20-%20Love%20Is%20A%20Wonderful%20Thing.mp3
vs.
http://evolution-control.com/mp3/Michael%20Bolton%20-%20Love%20is%20Wonderful%20Thing.mp3
I can't say that I see the same similarity. Sorta, kinda; but for the
most part they're pretty different. Anyone that's written a song probably
wouldn't find them too similar. Anyone that hasn't -- say, for example, a
jury -- might.
Sheesh.
