I saw a couple of American Idol concerts (yeah well, it was fun), and was surprised to hear the top 10 perform the chorus of Prince's America a few times, as an addendum to another song. I wonder if he knows they are using his song?
I doubt it is a copyright violation (not that I have an actual clue) but given Prince's proclivity, don't you imagine he'd think so? <Moderator: It's legal to perform cover as long as the license fees are paid from what I understand.... Interesting side note that those Karaoke Joints have to pay licensing fees for the music so I am guessing it's the same premise -Derek> ------------------------------------------------------------------------- NewPowerNewYork Mailing List website: Www.NPNY.Org ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe?
