Stella Lefty’s new song “Summer You Were Mine” incorporates elements of the Chicks’ Grammy-winning 1998 song “There’s Your Trouble”, after listeners spotted the resemblance following the release of her debut album. The original writers’ names were initially absent from public streaming credits because of what Atlantic Records described as a platform error, prompting questions about whether the song had been properly cleared.

Atlantic said the track had received permission from Sony Publishing in June, and internal label documents had already credited Tia Sillers and the late Mark Selby before the album’s release. Sillers welcomed the interpolation, saying it could introduce a younger audience to the original song; the practice, which adapts an existing melody or lyric rather than directly sampling it, has become increasingly common in pop music.
