A complaint for copyright infringement regarding two songs “Amazing” by Harrington and Leonard and “Photograph” by Ed Sheeran and John McDaid has been made along with a demand for a jury trial on June 8, 2016. The defendants’, Edward Christopher Sheeran, John McDaid, Ed Sheeran Limited and labels such as Sony have made deliberate infringement of “Amazing”. They have harmed the plaintiffs, HaloSongs, Martin Harrington, and Thomas Leonard as Harrington and Leonard were not properly credited for their contributions to “Photograph.” The chorus of “Photograph” has a number of simlarites as “Amazing”. This essay analyses both the songs choruses and will prove that the original has been copied to a reasonable degree. It will also provide evidence that “Amazing” is in fact an original song and that Ed Sheeran had access to the song at the time of the composition. The songs have been transcribed into C major for comparison. “Amazing” (AG) is an indie pop song in the key of C major. The duration of the song is 3:59 minutes and is played at 86 BPM using acoustic and electric guitar, strings, drums, bass and piano. “Photograph” (PH) is in the key of E major and is an acoustic pop …show more content…
Early January 2011, Harrington and Leonard sent the chorus only version of AG to Mr. Howes on request. They notified Mr. Howes (co-writer) that they retained all rights to their original version of AG. Later Mr. Stannard (co-writer) contacted them to send the multitracks of AG to Howes so Cardle could create a similar version of AG with the same name, “Amazing 2”. After hearing “Amazing 2” Harrington and Leonard recognized that the entire tracks chords, melody, lyrics, structure and instrumentation was the same as their original version. “Amazing 2” was credited as co-written by Messrs, Harrington, Leonard, Howes, Stannard, and Cardle. The song was released as the third single on Cardle’s debut studio album,
In this image, a sewage worker is seen cleaning the drainage system, with his bear hands, without the use of either any equipment’s or protection. On the first glace, the image depicts the idea of health risk, because the man is exposed to such contaminants, which for him is work. He is looking up from a dirty drain, covered in filth, which shows that he is clearly used as the subject of this image, whom we are engaged to more as he is making eye contact with its viewers. This picture only includes one person into the frame, as the other man’s face isn’t available to see in this picture, which is man that is holding the bucket. Holding a bucket either emphasise the idea that he is helping the sewage worker, either to get the dirt out or to put the dirt in the drainage system.
We do not have the big band sound, but instead rock band with one vocalist, electric guitars, string bass, drum kit it seems. Here then are a few things in the list that tell us more about this songs production technique: 1. Distorted sounding guitar introduction (00:00 – 00:08) can only be heard on the left side. 2. What is the difference between a.. Flower’s vocals (00:09) in the middle, while the drums can be heard on the far left.
Track 1 (“Excursion”): This song began with the bass guitar. The vocals started at 0:14, which intrigued me. The words seemed to have deep meaning to the vocalist. In particular, “get in the zone of positivity” was uplifting because of the area in which these people might have grown up. The only thing I disliked about this track was the monotone voice of the vocalist. Starting at 3:26 there was what sounded like a saxophone group imitating each other. At 3:46 there
...ack is up tempo, featuring the guitar, keyboards and drums. It is a verse/chorus tune that makes great use of all rock elements. This was written by Jon Bon Jovi and Garland Jefferys. With the intro and end of the song instrumental, the harmony between the instruments is very important. The execution by Bon Jovi on this track was exactly right.

Some people think that if they could only change one aspect of their lives, it would be perfect. They do not realize that anything that is changed could come with unintended consequences. “The Monkey’s Paw” by W.W. Jacobs and “The Third Wish” by Joan Aiken both illustrate this theme. They demonstrate this by granting the main character three wishes, but with each wish that is granted, brings undesirable consequences. The main idea of this essay is to compare and contrast “The Monkey’s Paw” and “The Third Wish.” Although the “The Monkey’s Paw” and “The Third Wish” are both fantasies and have similar themes, they have different main characters, wishes, and resolutions.
While some differences between Ventura College and the colleges that Andrew Hacker and Claudia Dreifus wrote about in their essay are evident, the similarities are salient. Ventura College meets the characteristics that Hacker and Dreifus described in their essay, Ventura College has a low tuition rates, small class sizes, and all students have access to counselors and instructors. The only difference between Ventura College and the colleges that Hacker and Dreifus talked about is funding. Ventura College doesn’t cost a lot of money to attend, but is experience it provides actually worth the price?
Although both protagonists in the stories go through a psychological disorder that turns their lives upside down, they find ways to feel content once again. In Charlotte Gilman's "The Yellow Wallpaper," a nervous wife, an overprotective husband, and a large, damp room covered in musty wallpaper all play important roles in driving the wife insane. Gilman's masterful use of not only the setting, both time and place, but also of first person point of view, allows the reader to process the woman's growing insanity. The narrator develops a very intimate relationship with the yellow wallpaper throughout the story, as it is her constant companion. Her initial reaction to it is a feeling of hatred; she dislikes the color and despises the pattern, but does not attribute anything peculiar to it. Two weeks into their stay she begins to project a sort of personality onto the paper, so she studies the pattern more closely, noticing for the first time “a strange, provoking, formless sort of figure that seems to skulk about behind that silly and conspicuous front design” (Gilman). At this point, her madness is vague, but becoming more defined, because although the figure that she sees behind the pattern has no solid shape, she dwells on it and

In many circles of the world, various groups of people distinguish themselves from one another through religion, language, culture, and sometimes gender. People also develop stereotypes about a particular group of people in order to identify them. However, most of the time, these stereotypes hold true for only some members of a group. Sometimes, these stereotypes are just plain misconceptions that do not even apply to the group it claims to. Stereotypes are placed on people because it is a way to easily identify what type of person or ethnicity an individual is. At one point in time, these stereotypes may have been true; however, in today’s modern society, most of these stereotypes are outdated and false, which leads them to turn into misconceptions. Usually, stereotypes are utilized to humiliate and degrade the person or group; they also do not provide any beneficial outcomes. Stereotypes focus on how a particular group acts because of the radical ideas and actions of the few, how a particular group looks, or how that group is physically lacking in some way. These stereotypes often lead to conflicts because the group does not appreciate the way it is being perceived. Seldom are the stereotypes placed on a group of people truthful and accurate. Some hardly even apply to the particular group people it claims to. It is true that how people are perceived has a big impact on how other individuals interact with them; however, people are not perceiving these groups correctly.
Most modern fairytales are expected to have happy endings and be appropriate for children, nonetheless, in past centuries most were gruesome. Consequently, fairytales have been modified throughout time. The stories “Beauty and the Beast” by Jeanne-Marie LePrince de Beaumont and “The Summer and Winter Garden” by Jacob and Wilherm Grimm share similarities and differences. The two stories are distinct because of the peculiar year they have been written in. LePrince de Beaumont’s story is written in London of 1783 and Grimm’s in Germany of 1812. At the time, wealthy people in London, were educated and had nannies who would read to their children; whereas, in Germany, the Grimm brothers created their own interpretation into a short story. Because many high class parents in 18th century London would not be able to spend time with their children, nannies would read “Beauty and the Beast” to them since they were intended for children and considered appropriate. In “The Summer and Winter Garden,” the Grimm’s’ story was mostly based to entertain misbehaved children and teach them the valuable lesson that everyone should be treated with kindness. The Grimm brothers’ goal in rewriting this short story is to better children’s behavior which worked quite well. Since these stories have been re-written for children, it would be safe to say the reason why parents expose the two stories to their children is because they both portray the same moral: good things happen to good people. The two interpretations of “Beauty and the Beast,” although written in separate countries, share important similarities and differences even though the authors have different interpretations and came from different cultures.
While it's apparent that artists of the modern age owe much to the artists in the Renaissance, there are many differences between the two. There are some similarities however much of what the artist is expressing, and how they present their concepts are entirely different. Renaissance art appears to be more of a historic record, and heavily influenced by reason and mathematics. Modern art on the other hand tends to convey ideas, and emotions, leaving interpretation to the viewer, instead of being straight forward.
Through time due to advancements in material and painting techniques combined with the ever-increasing talent of the artists, paintings representing people have become very lifelike and are extremely realistic. Some painted portraits have as much detail as modern photographs. However, there are also paintings of people that are representational in which the artist is trying to convey a message. This paper discusses the two types through the comparison of two paintings, Abaporu and Portrait of a Lady.
