Ed Sheeran Denies He Stole A Song For Tim McGraw & Faith Hill Track

Ed Sheeran is fighting back against accusations that he stole a song and turned into a track for Tim McGraw and Faith Hill.

Australian songwriters Sean Carey and Beau Golden filed a lawsuit in January claiming the Tim and Faith tune, “The Rest Of Our Life,” which Ed co-wrote, represents "blatant copying" of their 2014 song "When I Found You.” But now Ed is fighting back.

Ed’s lawyers just filed docs in the case, insisting the songs aren’t similar, and arguing that he didn’t ask for permission from Carey and Golden because the Tim and Faith tune is an "originally and independently created musical composition."

Ed is asking a judge to dismiss the case.
