  • The BLURRED LINES ARE REALLY NOT SO BLURRY
    The BLURRED LINES ARE REALLY NOT SO BLURRY. By Bill Pere We've all heard by now that a jury decided that "Blurred Lines" by Alan Thicke and Pharrell Williams was an infringement ion the song "Got to Give It Up" by Marvin Gaye, and awarded 7.3 million dollars in damages. You've probably also heard lots of voices on either side saying that the verdict was right or wrong. There really is no issue here. The verdict wrong because the jury untrained in music law, received no less than 47 pages of instructions from the judge, ( see them here: http://www.scribd.com/doc/258437531/Pharrell-Williams-Robin-Thicke-v- Gaye-jury-instructions-Blurred-Lines-trial-pdf#scribd) which were in many cases unclear, complicated or contradictory. So it is no surprise that the jury disregarded their instructions and the laws that applied to the case, and it did not help that they reportedly did not "like" the behavior of defendants. But legally, this was pretty straightforward. Yes, the two songs sound extremely similar. No question about that. However, they were supposed sound similar. And making them very similar in the way that it was done here does NOT constitute any type of copyright infringement. Period. There are two different kinds of copyrights that belong to a song. The first is actual SONG copyright, which is just melody + lyric (the 'c' copyright). That is the legal definition of a song, and that is all that Marvin Gaye claimed when he submitted his lead sheet for registration. All the other parts associated with a song, i.e.
