Concerning Robin Thicke

ET Canada noted of the Robin Thicke copyright trial

--
Mind you, Robin's defense team unveiled an unusual strategy to help present its case. While on the witness stand, the 37-year-old singer performed a piano medley featuring several known songs: U2's With Or Without You, The Beatles' Let It Be, Alphaville's Forever Young, Bob Marley's No Woman No Cry, and Michael Jackson's Man In the Mirror.

Although musical interludes can liven up any legal proceeding, the medley was designed to show many songs share similar chords and melodies without copying each other. To further the point, Robin noted that Blurred Lines relies solely on A-major and E-major, while Got To Give It Up uses eight different chords.
