Prince Case Has been Pending for Over a Decade

Prince has a case pending against him in Italy that has apparently been going on for ten years.
Bruno Bergonzi and Michele Vicino claim that Prince’s “The Most Beautiful Girl in the World” was stolen from them.
“Our song was first released in 1983, at the height of the Italian dance boom and it appeared on assorted compilations that were distributed internationally,” Bergonzi tells Billboard.com. “When we first heard Prince’s song we immediately took action, but this case has been dragging on for 15 years and it isn’t over yet, such is the slowness of the Italian legal system. We only decided to go public with our story now.” Source
I couldn’t find lyrics to their song anywhere but I’m willing to launch my own personal investigation. I used to really love Prince but in recent years he’s gotten under my skin.
