High Society - music and lyrics by Cole Porter
Jaiho from slumdog millionaire.
Vanessa Williams incorrectly answered a question about the title of a 1990s hit song by the group "The Black Eyed Peas." The specific question asked for the title of their song that featured the lyrics "I gotta feeling." Williams mistakenly chose an incorrect option, leading to her elimination from the game.
Alvin wants a hula hoop.
The song is Everybody Wants You by Billy Squier.
It's by Florence and the Machine, it's called Dog Days Are Over or something like that!
The writers get it.
It is important to determine who gets what and how when distinguishing between recording-artists royalties and songwriter/publishing royalties. Contracts should be drawn up and agreements shouldÊbe made between all parties inÊtheÊrecording industry Êbefore a hit song is produced
Song writers do not receive much in royalties for writing a song they receive about 9 cents for a song if it gets put on a CD and also get paid for when it's played in concerts, theaters, etc. But if they make on average about $5000 a year in royalties but $5000 is better than nothing. And if their song is a a million dollar record they receive a little over $22,000 for that song.
Depends on the price of the song now that its a variable pricing model and no longer a 99 cent/song. Royalties that the actual artist gets is under 10 cents. I believe the the most current move by the music industry through itunes makes it so that artists get 8 cents.. but it really depends on the original price of the song.
This was a question on an episode of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" I just watched. The song is called "Hail, Columbia". Who would have thought?
"Black Betty" is a traditional African American folk song, but the most famous version was recorded by the band Ram Jam in 1977. The royalties for this version would primarily go to the songwriters credited for that arrangement, which includes Allen Collins and James "Black Betty" McCoy. However, since the song's origins are rooted in folk tradition, the original creators of the song may not receive royalties. The specific distribution of royalties can depend on the contracts and agreements made by the artists and their record labels.

As of now, "White Christmas" by Irving Berlin holds the record for generating the highest royalties every year. This classic holiday song continues to be widely performed and licensed, contributing to its continued success in generating royalties.
The rapper, known for his hit song "Ice Ice Baby", was ordered by a judge to pay royalties for using the bassline to the song "Under Pressure" by Queen and David Bowie.
Basically, if you're having a song play streaming, which is the most likely, you'll have to pay royalties to Sound Exchange if you want to do it legally. You do this by buying a license which is probably based on the amount of traffic your site gets. They're the ones who handle royalties for digital music. http://www.knowthemusicbiz.com/index.php/BIZ-WIKI/Licensing-&-Royalties/Digital-/-New-Media-Royalties.html
