Singer-songwriter Miley Cyrus is facing a lawsuit over the alleged similarities between her track ‘Flowers’ and Bruno Mars’ hit track ‘When I Was Your Man’.The lawsuit has been filed in a Los Angeles court, and was put in motion by Tempo Music Investments — which owns a share of the copyright in Mars’ hit after it acquired songwriter Philip Lawrence’s music catalogue, reports ‘People’ magazine.Among the accusations, the suit states that “the opening vocal line from the chorus of ‘Flowers’ begins and ends on the same chords as the opening vocal line in the verse of ‘When I Was Your Man’”.Tempo Music Investments wants Cyrus, and the defendants listed in the suit to stop reproducing, distributing or publicly performing ‘Flowers’.
