This is n't the first time the pair have been accused of copyright infringement with the catchy summer anthem though, as earlier this year another band named The Sequence claimed the track copied their 1979 song'Funk You Up '. However, no lawsuit was filed for this case.
Šī nav pirmā reize, kad abus dziesmas "Uptown Funk" autorus apsūdz par autortiesību pārkāpumu. Šī gada sākumā grupa "The Sequence" abus apsūdzēja par tās 1979.gada dziesmas "Funk You Up" kopēšanu, taču tolaik tiesas prāva netika uzsākta.
