Tom Petty and Jeff Lynne are being credited as co-writers for Sam Smith's grammy award-winning, 'Stay With Me' because the song shares similar chorus patterns with 'I Won't Back Down."
Petty released a statement saying, "About the Sam Smith thing. Let me say I have never had any hard feelings toward Sam," Petty wrote. "All my years of songwriting have shown me these things can happen. Most times you catch it before it gets out the studio door but in this case it got by. Sam's people were very understanding of our predicament and we easily came to an agreement" -For more info, check out Rolling Stone. Watch the video below and hear the similarities.
