+ | In 1995, two Italian songwriters, Bruno Bergonzi and Michele Vicino filed a lawsuit against Prince for plagiarism. Bergonzi and Vicino claimed that '''The Most Beautiful Girl In The World''' borrowed heavily from a song they wrote called ''Takin' Me To Paradise'' and released by Raynard J. in 1983. The Rome Court ruled against Bergonzi and Vicino in 2003 but they won on appeal in 2007. This judgement was confirmed in Italy in 2015, acknowledging Bergonzi and Vicino as co-authors of '''The Most Beautiful Girl In The World'''. Although this decision is only limited to the Italian territory (where the song is banned for distribution), it impacted the status of [[Album: The Gold Experience|The Gold Experience]] in other countries. After [[Prince]]'s passing, his [[The Prince Estate|Estate]] made all his albums available on streaming plateforms and re-released many of them physically (through [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warner_Bros._Records Warner Bros.] or [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legacy_Recordings Sony's Legacy Recordings]), except [[Album: The Gold Experience|The Gold Experience]] because of this legal action. | ||
