"The Knack sued Run-DMC in 2006, claiming that "My Sharona" was sampled without their permission. It was settled out of court."
I'm curious as to why they chose to wait 19 years to file a lawsuit. The song was made in 1987 and wasn't some completely unrecognizable random song from a largely unknown group either. I guess their royalty money was running out.
