The song “photograph”, released in 2015, is one of the mega-hits of Ed Sheeran.
However, the refrain melody of “Photograph” was actually written in by Martin Harrington and Thomas Leonard for the song “Amazing”, performed by Matt Cardle, published in 2012. After an amazing $20 million lawsuit, Ed Sheeran finally came to an agreement with the original songwriters in 2017.
The melody of “Photograph” inspired many other musicians as well.
