By the way, Canadians seem to have this weird obsession with Americans. It’s a mix of an inferiority complex and a superiority complex.
People here really think they are better than Americans. I’ve lived here long enough to know.
And I really hate it. Can’t wait for the border to re-open so I can go home. My husband of 30+ years even knows that.
I want to sue Neil Young for having made most of his songs and having them played over the air. They definitely are air pollution and off-key, both death penalty crimes where I come from.
Yeah, but he said only love can make you cry, so if he’s crying about this, he must love Trump.
Go back to Canada freak
And SESAC if it is still around.
No Ted songs? What, you don’t think “Wang Tang Poontang” wouldn’t go over with the base? ;-)
I enjoyed the comments below the song, in your youtube post. A couple of those comments mentioned the good old days with Philly AM radio station WIBG, and DJ Hy "Hyski" Lit, in relation to that song. (Another famous local DJ there at WIBG at the time was Joe "The Rockin' Bird" Niagara.) There's a bunch of posts of both of those guys out there on youtube.
Another song they could play at the rallies (probably more fitting for Biden rallies, if he ever has one), where they likely wouldn't be sued, would be this one:
"Surfin' Bird" - The Trashmen
Correct, Mick Jagger publicly admitted there’s nothing the Stones can do about him playing “You Can’t Always Get What You Want” at rallies.
Doesn’t matter. My point is still correct. If he ‘publicizes’ his work and makes it available to anyone willing to pay royalties, he can’t withhold it from a specific group just because he doesn’t like them.
If he had a definitive case, he would have already filed.
I understand your point about the ‘letter’ of the law, and the legal definition of ‘public domain’, and I concede that. Thanks for pointing it out.
That said, I feel that this is part of the problem with the law these days. Legal findings are too often determined on the basis of the ‘letter of the law’ and not the ‘intent of the law’. You have to respect both, and find a balance - though I admit that this is difficult to do.
I have an aircheck of one of these broadcasts.
Buffalo Springfield?
“hasn’t done anything in 30 45 years”
He released something shortly after 9/11.
I’m not sure if a doctor prescribed him some anti-psychotic drugs, or he stopped smoking pot to come up with this:

“It’s funny when people sing along with “Born in the USA” thinking it’s a positive song but it’s really anti-American bitterness.”
I’ve said the same thing.
“Ditch “Rocking in the Free World” and get something patriotic. How about Lloyd Marcus’s iconic Tea Party Song?!”
Or play Kate Smith’s “God Bless America” and really watch some libtard heads explode.
