Buy a Dog written by Tom Luce, Matt Blackett, Larry Riggs, Brian Kroll
- Comments
- 2010 hit song by Selena Gomez written by Toby Gad and Lindy Robbins. A San Francisco band called Luce sued Gomez and the songwriters saying they lifted the melody of "A Year Without Rain" from their 2005 song "Buy a Dog". As a result, the four Luce bandmembers who co-wrote "Buy a Dog" are now credited on Gomez's "A Year Without Rain".
