Sam Smith Ordered to Pay Tom Petty Royalties Over 'Stay With me' [POLL]
This story has flown under the radar for three months.  Back in October Sam Smith was ordered to pay royalties from his debut hit single 'Stay With Me' to rocker Tom Petty because it shared chord progression with a Petty tune.  Listen to 'Stay With Me' and 'I Won't Back Down' and be the judge. Do you think they sound similar?
