Question:

Why do people get suckered into giving some one lyrics over the Internet?


I have seen soo many people ask for blues lyrics and people freely display them dont you know that If someone took those lyrics and used them and that song became a big hit they would lose out on royalties that should the theirs never ever give lyrics over the inter net unless you have secured a copy write first

Objectively, for someone to question them on their generosity is presumptuous and intrusive as it isn't any loss to anyone else, so why stress over it? Not trying to offend anyone.

An easy way to secure your right of ownership is to write down all your lyrics and music for your songs and mail them to yourself by registered mail. You will get the mail and sign for receipt and this will be on record and verifiable.

Don't open the package you sent/received!!


If someone uses your songs without acknowledging your rights and paying your royalties, you can use the registered mail as evidence and proof in court that you wrote the song and it is your property. I gave lyrics for two blues requests tonight. Don't think there's any chance of them becoming hits. LMAO!
Make that three! I guess the people giving them don't care. I think it's pretty much the fact that some people are idiots. I'm with ya.

Remember though .... we ar ein a country where the most recent statistics show that 58% of the population does not consider free dowlonading without permission to be stealling! Well, I havent given any original lyrics out, yet, but if i did I wouldn't worry too much. My stuff is all copyrighted.. Most of the lyrics given are in the public domain and are freely available on the internet. Even if by some remote possiblitly someone used them and that song became a big hit you would not be entitiled to royalties anyway, as you do not hold the copyright, Unlikely that anyone does, as most of those blues lyrics have been around for 60, 70 or 80 years.
Most "blues" songs are just old verses that have been around forever and are just strung together and are found in many different songs. What perplexes me is why people ask for lyrics on Yahoo Answers instead of conducting a simple Yahoo/Google search.
