did you get the rights to release a cover version?

>>74843474
I can't just play one of their songs and release the album for free?

>>74843229
Old College Try always gets me

>>74843508
no

>>74843539
fuck, well I guess I'm gonna do it anyway

>>74843508
probably yes but in the US youre supposed to get a mechanical reproduction contract for 15 cents per play/download, which is compulsory, meaning musicians cant refuse even if they wanted to

1 John 4:16

>In the cell that holds my body back, the door swings wide
>And I feel like someone's lost child as the guard leads me outside
>And if the clouds are gathering, just to point the way
>To an afternoon I spent with you, when it rained all day

>>74843229
>I really want to have a MGs song on the album
>I haven't dived into the whole discography

why??

I'll look into it but I'm pretty sure I'm not gonna be topping charts or even giving this out to anyone besides some friends

>>74843615
I've listened to about half of the 400 songs they wrote. I'm gonna get around to it, I just haven't had internet for a while.

Grendel's Mother, Song for an Old Friend or Raja Vocative.

Just dive deep into it, guys. It's all good.

>I remember Lima
>I remember the good life

mfw I was born in Lima, Peru and lived through Sendero Luminoso's terrorism in the 90s. That song hits hard as fuck.

I honestly didn't think anybody would reply, so thanks to everyone for posting, I am writing these songs down too.

That's sad and cool. I might just cover for it something else. Or stick with it I don't know

I might not even be able to cover anything if this copyright stuff works the way I'm looking at it..
But whatever I'm glad I got some other songs to look at, and even a song or two I didn't know about. I'm done here
