I like this version. Why isn't it entitled the correct translation, Wake Up? I guess that could be thought rude.
In 2006 the organist sued for a portion of the royalties and won. One wonders why he waited such a long time to do this. The case went all the way to the Law Lords.pinball1970 said:A last thing on Bach (for now) Whiter Shade of Pale used a progression and figure.
Not a chance he didn't know. Whiter Shade of Pale was a big hit in the UK and elsewhere. Everyone with even an ounce of hipness knew it. I expect the judge ruled in the organists favor because he/she dug that melody in their youth. ( I wish bands like Procol Harum could be successful today.)jedishrfu said:Maybe the organist didn't know what had happened. There was an American music composer who discovered his music was wildly popular on China's CCTV but he got no royalties from them.

He discovered it through use of the google-developed content id tool.

Locus Iste by Anton Bruckner.
If he wrote it did he not just get a %?Hornbein said:In 2006 the organist sued for a portion of the royalties and won. One wonders why he waited such a long time to do this. The case went all the way to the Law Lords.
He won a percentage of royalties and a share of composer credit.pinball1970 said:If he wrote it did he not just get a %?
As composer?
Or did he get one of those dodgy 1960s record company deals?
That's very sad but a beautiful story at the same time. Moon River breaks my heart, I don't even know what the words are but every time I was flicking through my ex song book, I would insist she sang while I fumbled my way through the chords on piano.Hornbein said:Ashokan Farewell
I performed this with a chorus on the night my mother died. Though I didn't know that until afterward. I like to believe that she passed away during Moon River. It was one of her favorites.
