Apparently I sang "Hooked on a feeling" so good in the intro to my Ape Out video that it got copyright claimed. Where's my Grammy?pic.twitter.com/VMy8kD3lFy

In the Crazy Monkey Man video? He sang 4-5 lines of the song with signature vocalisations in the same order and arrangement as the copyrighted song. 4 words is fine, 4 lines is not. LMFAO couldn't copyright "Every day I'm shuffling" because it was too short and too common.
Parody would need changing of lyrics at least. He sang the song at the start of the video when it's proven the first 3-5 seconds of a video are the most important for getting and keeping viewers. He basically performed a copyrighted song to make his video better, making him money
Ah, I was thinking of a totally different video where he just blurted out "hooked on a feeling" - I'm not actually 100% that it was even Sean I'm thinking of now, haha.
