If I were to ever have heard Taurus without knowing about a lawsuit or if they were the original songwriters or whatever... if I heard that song, I would think, Oh some band is doing an adapted version of Stairway. And because I would think that, that's makes it signature to the song and copyrightable.
Yeah, it definitely comes down to a jury's interpretation. Too bad they weren't allowed to hear/see all the evidence in the first lawsuit.
The fact that you don't see it that way and I do highlights just how subjective the debate is.
Speaking of rip-offs, Shakira stole a melody line with one of her spanish songs. I think I'm going to YouTube her for a while.
