A Brazil court has ordered that a song by British singer, Adele, be removed from radio and all streaming platforms globally over alleged copyright.

The judge, Vitctor Torres gave the judgment after a Brazil local composer, Toninho Geraes accused Adele of copying works from his 1995 album.

Toninho Geraes claimed that Adele’s 2015 song ‘Million Years Ago’, was copied from his 1996 classic, ‘Mulheres’, sung by Martinho da Vila, a Brazilian singer.

Geraes is suing for lost royalties, demanding $160,000 in moral damages, and wants a songwriting credit on Adele’s song.

The court also threatened Brazilian subsidiaries of Sony and Universal with $8,000 fine “per act of non compliance”.
