JAKARTA - Miley Cyrus is facing demands for her song that exploded on the market nicknamed Flowers. The claim was filed by Tempo Music Investments, a company that has a license of some of Bruno Mars' musical works.

It's no secret that Flowers was inspired by Bruno's song When I Was Your Man. Miley's work is the answer to the song by conveying it from the woman's side.

After a long time without a problem, the demands only surfaced on Monday, September 16 yesterday. They believe the song Flowers exploits several parts of the song Bruno Mars.

"It is undeniable based on the combination and the many similarities between the two recordings, that 'Flowers' will not exist without When I Was Your Man', the statement reads.

Launching Variety, the demands were not only aimed at Miley Cyrus. Several companies that participated in distributing Flowers were also targeted, such as Sony Music Publishing, Apple, Target, and Walmart.

The reporter will sue Miley and several related parties a maximum of USD 150 thousand per violation, or around Rp. 2.3 billion. This figure can swell if there are several violations that have been proven in court.

This incident is quite unfortunate, because Flowers is the work that brought in two Grammy trophies as well as for Miley Cyrus. For two decades of work, this is the first time he has won this prestigious award.
