Because there’s a set of copyrights to protect the writers of songs for the lyrics/melody that they've created, you can receive a claim if you sing a song a cappella (regardless of the quality of your vocals--although, tbh, we were impressed). More info: http://goo.gl/ESkbsb
That's BS and you know it! they are just abusing your system. you can play/sing/hum one note of a song and they would try to copy right it. claims should only be based on if they use the actual music! other wise people that don't use youtube would be getting sued for it as well!
That's not the law. Lyrics and melody have their own copyright. Single lines usually don't, but Jack sang 4-5 lines with signature vocalisations. Courts have ruled in the past that this isn't fair use. This isn't abuse, it's the law, unfortunately.
yeah, never said it was the law. yes, he sang a few lines from the song. But it is also different than the song. IE the OOGA OOGA CHAGGA, wasn't still going while he sang the few verses, no actual music was playing, and he was slightly out of pitch. which youtube admitted to. 1/2
So therefore despite you being able to recognize the song. It is completely different version of the song and should fall under the fair use law. IMHO that is. other wise people out on the streets humming/singing copyrighted songs should be sued for copyright infringement then.
It would be considered a cover of the song, which usually includes some modifications, and unfortunately you need a 'mechanical license' for covers: https://bit.ly/2U21sCw Also:https://bit.ly/2CI6YE3
Oh I know all this. I'm not disputing that. I'm just saying it's wrong, and considering how old these laws are. They should be changed.
I agree, but being realistic they're not changing any time soon and the more we just hate it the fewer people understand and get in trouble. I'm actually surprised Jack didn't know this, a creator his size should have a lawyer.
