Licensing A Song
There are many examples of artists that have used another artists song
and made it their own. This is 100%
legal as long as the proper steps are
taken.
The new artist must get permission from the original artist and get the
proper license to perform that song.
This is called a public performance
license.
The new artist must also receive a special license, called a mechanical
license, from the copyright owner,
which is usually held by the artist
and publisher.
