The plaintiffs are now reportedly seeking unspecified damages and an injunction against Cyrus from reproducing, distributing or publicly performing the song “Flowers”. The 31-year-old singer will have to release the summer hit from her album “Infinite Summer Vacation,” which is due out in 2023. Mars himself is not named as a plaintiff, only the company Tempo Music Investments, which is involved in Mars’ music. Bruno Mars released the song “When I Was Your Man” in 2012. Neither he nor Cyrus have publicly commented on the allegations.
Many music lovers have noticed the similarity between the songs on social media. Since the release of “Flowers” on January 13, 2023, there has been speculation about whether and how Cyrus references Bruno Mars’ lyrics in her music. Bruno Mars sings in the chorus: “That I should buy you flowers and hold your hand. I should give you all my hours when I have the chance. Take you to every party, because all you want to do is dance. Now my son is dancing, but he is dancing with another man.” In comparison, the text of Cyrus reads: “I can buy myself a flower, write my name in the sand. Talk to myself for hours, say things you don’t understand. I can make myself dance, and I can hold my hands. Yes, I can love me more than you can.”
With “Flowers,” Cyrus won the Record of the Year award, which honors singers, as well as the award for Best Pop Solo Performance, which was previously nominated by Bruno Mars. Last year the song reached No. 1 in the US for eight weeks and spent ten weeks in the top spot in the UK. The song is also part of her current perfume campaign. In the advertisement for “Gucci Flora”, which is visible from 2021, the singer and actress presents her own perfume “Gucci Flora Gorgeous Orchid Eau De Parfum”. The song “Flowers” will play in the background.
