What's the saying about laughing all the way to the bank? :)

I suspect that's easier for us to say than for the people who have a personal investment in the song. I also think it's a mistake to assume that the effect of something like that has a positive impact on the song's sales. It could easily have a negative impact.

Hi, Wolfstar :)

I agree. And in some cases, money might not have anything to do with it. The use of the song could be refused for artistic reasons.
