Fifth Harmony's Work From Home song goes viral due to Coronavirus


The all female singing group Fifth Harmony's song “Work from Home” is making a comeback in the age of the coronavirus. As more and more employers ask their employees to “work from home”, the song has become a rallying call and an inspiration.

Instead of feeling bad or sad about having to work from home, Fifth Harmony espouses the benefits of working from home and perhaps the same can be said about school at home n these scary times.


You don't gotta go to work--- but you got to put in the work ---You can work from home

Yes you don't have to go to work but since you have to work, why not from home. Of course we can't all do that.

Pharrell Williams and Robin Thicke found guilty

Pharrell Williams and Robin Thicke have been found guilty by a Los Angeles jury of copying Marvin's Gaye song to create the mega 2013 hit Blurred Lines. The pair must pay the Gaye family over 7 million dollars. This is not good for Pharrell Williams, the music mogul and The Voice judge who won several Grammy Awards. Robin Thicke, on the other hand had already said in court that he was drunk or on drugs when he co-wrote the song.

The duo was accused by the family of Marvin Gaye, of copying his 1970 music, "Got to give it up". This is not the first time for a copying lawsuit in the music industry and it could be a deliberate act or not. Pharrell Williams said that while he knew Marvin's Gaye's song as a youth, he did not copy any of it in Blurred Lines. The jury disagreed. Here are the two songs. I don't really see the similarities but then I am no expert in these things. What do you think?
