In an almost bizarre turn of events, pop superstar Ed Sheeran is accused of ripping off a song by the Candlebox/Live offshoot band “The Gracious Few” by using a guitar riff for his song “Blow” that appears to be very similar to a the The Gracious Few song “Honest Man”.
Orlando speaks with Candlebox lead singer Kevin Martin to talk about the irony, his opinion on whether the riff is identical and who Kevin thinks came up with the “Blow” version of the guitar riff.
You be the judge – do they sound similar?
