I'm confused. I think you are talking about writing your own stuff and then protecting it in case anybody ever hears you performing it and steals it.

I'm talking about using somebody else's song, e.g. Everybody Loves Somebody, doing my own rendition of it and putting on a CD to sell. I believed there were copyright laws and you have to pay royalties to whoever is the rightful owner/author of the song. I'm worried about doing a CD of 15 cover songs and then getting burned by copyright fees.

Thanks.


You're right....sorry didn't read your message carefully enough re: doing covers....anyway there's some copyright info for those who want it.
