    Copyright Law

    Farm Truck raised an interesting and relevant topic and I am starting this thread to discuss...we all want to be accurately informed as Christians so here we can discuss without any personal context...

    United States copyright law grants legal protection to various creative works, including songs or lyrics. Under The Copyright Act of 1976, copyright holders have exclusive rights to reproduce their creations for a specific length of time. Those exclusive rights are limited by the doctrine of “fair use,” which allows for others to reproduce a work in whole or in part for use in a parody without the copyright holder’s permission, provided the parody meets certain criteria.

    And she did the right thing. Have a friend who runs a record label in Nashville and we've had many a discussion over copyright issues.

    Also Leonard Cohen's original version has always left a bad taste in my mouth... have no idea why.
