In 2023, Miley Cyrus had a huge chart-topping, Grammy-winning comeback hit with “Flowers,” a song that essentially seemed structured as an answer to Bruno Mars‘ “When I Was Your Man,” another big hit from a decade earlier., as Stereogum reports.
Billboard independently reported that the case says Cyrus infringed “When I Was Your Man,” but her lawyers say they only share basic lyrics you might hear in any song about a failed relationship.
What This Means Locally
