Ed Sheeran says he’ll retire from music if he loses Marvin Gaye plagiarism lawsuit.

The singer is currently being sued by the estate of Ed Townsend who co-wrote the song “Let’s Get it On” with Gaye in 1973.

During the hearing, Sheeran, 32, took the stand and was questioned by his lawyer Ilene Farkas. At one point, he was asked what he would do if the court finds “Thinking Out Loud” to be too similar to “Let’s Get It On.”

“If that happens, I’m done, I’m stopping,” Sheeran said.

“I find it to be really insulting,” he added. “I work really hard to be where I’m at.”

Do you think the songs are similar?
