Here's what they supposedly stole - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MKC5cdGBY04 The Rolling Stones did not sue this band, The Verve were sued by ABCKO/Allen B. Klein, who pretty much owns the rights to all Stones' material written before 1971. The Verve does receive sales and recording income for this song, just not any royalties as composers. "After 'Bittersweet Symphony' became a hit single, the group was sued by former Stones manager Allen Klein (who owns the copyrights to the band’s pre-1970 songs...). He claimed the Verve broke the agreement when they supposedly used a larger portion than was covered in the license ..." |

phlattop Mar 08, 2013 - 09:52 | I read somewhere that they approached Mick and Keith about the songwriting credit when they got nowhere with the Stones' lawyers . Mick and Keith's hands were tied so they abided by the law. rdo wrote: I disagree. If I were on the jury, I would have sided against the Verve too. They just need to get permission, that's all it takes. This is a good song, but credit has to be given when and where it is due. |
mostling Mar 08, 2013 - 09:48 | excellent transition from Travis 'Sing" to the Verve. These are some of my all time Brit favorites. |

Lazarus Jan 04, 2013 - 18:00 | absolutely brilliant song... one of the top 10 of the 1990's... |
metod Dec 19, 2012 - 08:13 | Maybe too overated or overplayed on other stations...but this song is really good, |
dew34 Dec 15, 2012 - 15:10 | Sounds like This Will Be The Last Time by The Stones. |
maryjanne Dec 04, 2012 - 09:02 | It's insane how the musics on this radio play on a sequence that makes perfect sense together! Its was playing Travis - Sing before this one and 2 seconds after listening to it reminded me of Bitter Sweet Symphony. Who came next??? I love you so much guys! |
