This is brilliant! You should release it as a charity single! I even have an idea of how to avoid any copyright problems: One of our baiters who lives anywhere other than in America and has a common name could volunteer themselves. Then Georgie could email the mugus, and ask them to write a document to transfer any possible copyright stuff to his "executive musical assistant" (our non-american baiter), and then mail this document to one of our American dropboxes. Then this baiter could transfer the copyright to SP or whoever. Do we have any lawyers here (no, Nigerian barrister buisness partners don't count) who could work out how to do such a thing? |

That would be a good idea if I knew how to do that, but there might be legal problems in that I only know the lad is a scammer, the others for all I know are not, so they might be able to make a claim if it was released, although, I am sure I could get a written document with all their signatures allowing for it to be distributed at the producers whim |
Getting the lad to give me copyright over the 2 tracks will not be a problem I shouldn't think |

^^ Not to sound like an idiot here, but wouldn't you have to get permission from whoever actually owns the rights to the song? Not just the folks singing it? |

This is interesting, I was just looking for mechanical licence agreements when I cam across this question and answer:
http://www.straightdope.com/classics/a1_324b.html
Quote: |
Dear Cecil:
I remember reading once that the group the Diodes recorded "Red Rubber Ball" to get back at its composer, Paul Simon, for saying that he hated punk rock. This brings to mind a question: must a group or singer get any sort of permission before recording somebody else's song? Or do you just have to pay royalties after the fact? Is asking permission beforehand just a professional courtesy? --Curly L., Fair Lawn, New Jersey
Dear Curly:
Surprisingly enough, if somebody is determined to do a cover version of your song, it is well-nigh impossible for you, Joe Composer, to stop them. In general, the right to record somebody else's song is called a "mechanical license," and usually it's negotiated in a routine manner between representatives of the copyright holder and the would-be cover artiste. (Outfits like The Harry Fox Agency in New York generally handle the publisher's side.) However, in the rare event that negotiations fail, the copyright laws contain provisions for a type of mechanical license called a "compulsory license," which, in effect, give anyone the right to record any song he or she wants to, as long as notice is given to the song's copyright owners within 30 days after the recording is made and before it is distributed. Compulsory licenses were written into the copyright laws in 1909 in an attempt to break up a monopoly in the piano-roll industry--an industry which has since been pretty well broken up, period. So why negotiate at all? Mainly because the law dictates higher royalty rates and stricter payment schedules for compulsory licenses than you can obtain with the negotiated kind.
But hey, you say, I've just written a couple of can't-miss tunes that I'm sure will rocket to the top of the charts as soon as I can get them recorded. Do I now have to worry that music industry vultures will steal them before I can make my pile? Don't fret, bucky. The composer's one inalienable right is to decide who will record his song first. Bob Dylan pulled this one in the notorious case of "Mr. Tambourine Man": the song was originally set to be issued in a version that Dylan had recorded live at a folk festival, but Dylan wasn't happy with the results. Unfortunately, his contract with Columbia didn't give him the right to decide on what material the company released, so Bob didn't seem to have much of a choice. But then, the Poet of Our Generation remembered his first issue rights and denied a mechanical license to his own record company. The album was killed.
Meanwhile, the Brothers Four, a once beloved folk group that had fallen on hard times, had recorded a highly commercial cover version of the song--a guaranteed comeback. But when Dylan's anticipated first version failed to appear, the group was caught between the proverbial rock and a hard place, unable to release their dynamite single. It sat in the vaults until Dylan issued his approved version some months later--but in the meantime, the Byrds had recorded their cover version, and that was the one that went to the Top of the Pops. Such are the vagaries of fortune.
For a more detailed discussion of licensing (and lots of other stuff besides), see This Business of Music, by Sidney Shemel and M. William Krasilovsky. Of this extraordinary volume even Cecil is in awe.

Great stuff. I was wondering who is the scammer in the video? there is a guy who who seems to have the camera focussed on him a lot (green clothes with the straw hat). Is he the one? or is it the director guy in white with a walking stick? |

Sp I think that some type credit or mentioned has to be given to the
music composer
I will have to ask my cousing who is on vaction and lives in Mexico.
As mentioned before permission has to come from the composer of the lyrics,
and I believe that there would be no problem with that. |

I have only just come across this forum and I have been having a good old lurk around. I must admit this is one on the funniest stories I seen for a long time.
I must admit to a slight feeling of sadness for all the in the choir who are not scammers. (OK guilt trip over)
Well done!
PS Have you thought of making a torrent for the zip file. This may help in the distribution |

You might want to tell your mugu that it is not typical for a manager of a group to strut around onstage like a peacock on acid during his groups performance.
I loved one of the gals in the chorus, who looked like she was bored out of her mind, and ready to kill the dimwit that thought up this idea. |

One problem with the Lad's production was a complete lack of the singers making the letters with their arms!
Was he instructed to do that and just blew it off?
Other than that, it was Awesome! |

There will be a slight delay in uploading the video to YouTube. I need to change my account type to allow videos longer than 10 minutes in length. Hopefully this will be activated by YouTube shortly. |

We were going to gong them out but gave them a score of 4
Superlative baiting. |

Order the mugu to use a digital miniDV camcorder for the next video because analog tape is sooo outdated.

WOW WOW WOW WOW
That is simply too amazing for words. What a stunning coup!!!!!
Aside from the worn tape or other electronic details. someone needs to tell the cameraman to simply clean his lens. That schmutzy blob on the left is pretty distracting.
This lad is going to have a lot of 'spaining to do when this all crashes down on his head!
Kudos to SP, this is literally world-class! |

I think all the "oh, hes gonna get beat up" is probably exaggerated.
In reality, he's probably going to blame the entire thing on greedy foreigners, and everyone will probably believe him. |

Not when GWB emails all the people in the choir and their next of kins (I have all their email addies) explaining why their dreams were shattered, because the lad has been found by CIA/FBI to be a proven 419er.
[edit]
Hey, I just noticed someone put this in my sig:
