I feel like the outcome of the case discussed here runs completely opposite to the outcome of the Marvin Gaye estate against Robin Thicke and the other writers on Blurred Lines, whereby the song, without any sort of similarity note-wise, was found to be infringing based on the "feeling" of the song, which seems incredibly problematic for anyone writing music nowadays. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blurred_Lines#Marvin_Gaye_laws...
