plagiarism in the 1950s. It was one of the first lawsuits for plagiarism in music. Some Romanian sources indicate that Stein won the case, but the ASCAP/BMI publishing database to this day still credits "Johnny Is The Boy For Me" entirely and solely to Les Paul, Paddy Roberts and Marcel Stellman. In 1988, Belgian band Vaya Con Dios recorded a cover of Piaf's "Johnny, tu n'es pas un ange" in French on their debut album Vaya Con Dios. On the record, the song was attributed to Édith Piaf, Les Paul and Francis Lemarque. In July 2001, nine years after Stein's death, UCMR-ADA (Romanian Musical Performing and Mechanical Rights Society) sued Vaya Con Dios for plagiarism because the band paid royalties to Les Paul instead of Stein. In 2009, the song was featured in the Ubisoft game Rabbids Go Home, performed by the Moldovan gypsy brass band Fanfare Vagabontu. In 2010, the Israeli artist Yoni Eilat recorded a Yiddish cover of the song, "Vint un fayer" (), for his album "Tzigayner Neshume".
