OHMYGOSSIP — James Arthur says he won’t face legal action from The Script. Last year it was claimed the former ‘X Factor’ star’s song ‘Say You Won’t Let Go’ had a number of similarities to the Script’s ‘Man Who Can’t Be Moved’ but James insists nothing ever came of the controversy. He told The Sun: “Nothing ever came of it. There was no case. It’s 2017, there’s only seven notes in music. “Every blues song sounds the f***ing same. People get a bit wound up about these things for no reason.” In 2016, it was claimed that The Script had hired a music expert to prepare a report on the similarities between the two songs. A source said at the time: “‘Say You Won’t Let Go’ is already one of the biggest singles of the year so this is a real hammer blow. “There is no doubt the songs sound alike and have a similar chord progression. “James has just got back on the straight and narrow after a difficult few years and a lawsuit is the last thing he needs.” Meanwhile, James recently admitted he “hit the self-destruct button” when he first found fame. The star – who had a successful comeback last year – feels he succumbed to the pressure of his rise to fame and coupled with not being “mentally in a good place”, he found himself spiralling out of control. He shared: “I wasn’t really mentally in a good place before I did ‘The X Factor’. The pressure got to me – I was having these bad anxiety attacks all the time. The way that I would deal with that was by self-medicating; it spiralled out of control. I hit the self-destruct button.”
