Ed Sheeran has denied copying Marvin Gaye's hit 'Let's Get It On'.
The 27-year-old musician is currently facing a court battle after it was claimed that his 2014 track 'Thinking Out Loud' bears a striking resemblance to the 1973 hit.
But according to documents obtained by The Blast, Ed has now denied that the two tracks share any similarities that would warrant legal action.
Ed states his track "is not actually similar" to 'Let's Get It On', and claims any possible similarities are based off common themes in music and not distinctive to Marvin's music.
The Blast says Ed is now filing separate documents to request that the case be dismissed entirely.
