An Indiana man is accusing Britney Spears of plagerism, claiming to have written the song Sometimes. Steve Wallace filed a lawsuit against the singer and Sony/BMG Music Publishing Inc. on May 5th, stating that he wrote the song in 1990. In 1994 he sold it to producers, before entering the song in a music competition in Pennsylvania in 1997. Wallace also presented an email to the court from Spears stating, "I now know for a fact that you wrote sometimes. But there's nothing I can do about it. That's all I can say about it." Spears obtained a copyright for Sometimes in 1999. The song was released on her first album Baby One More Time and was also on her compilation CD Greatest Hits: My Perogative. |
