What To Know About The Filing
According to Billboard, Stone accused Mariah Carey of copyright infringement, alleging that she copied the 1994 track from a song he and his group — Vince Vance & the Valiants — created in 1989.
In a complaint filed on Wednesday (Nov. 1), Stone’s lawyers issued a scathing critique against Carey. From MiMi’s alleged “incredulous” stories about her hit song to her “hubris knowing no bounds,” the attorneys didn’t hold back!
“Carey has without licensing, palmed off these works with her incredulous origin story, as if those works were her own. Her hubris knowing no bounds, even her co-credited songwriter doesn’t believe the story she has spun. This is simply a case of actionable infringement.”
They also referred to Andy Stone’s original track as “a country music hit” that received radio play into the early 1990s. Additionally, they stated that there are significant linguistic similarities between the two Christmas songs.
“The phrase ‘all I want for Christmas is you’ may seem like a common parlance today, [but] in 1988 it was, in context, distinctive.”
Notably, Stone’s attorneys called Mariah Carey’s bop “a greater than 50% clone of Vance’s original work.”
“Moreover, the combination of the specific chord progression in the melody paired with the verbatim hook was a greater than 50% clone of Vance’s original work, in both lyric choice and chord expressions.”
PEOPLE cites court docs to report that Andy Stone is seeking a jury trial, along with $20M in damages. As for his initial lawsuit, the outlet says it was dropped after five months.
