The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.

Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

They get money from it now. Richards and Jagger were against the lawsuit but they didn't own their song at the time. After Klein's death they got the royalties to go to The Verve.
"In 2019, ten years after Klein's death, Jagger, Richards, and Klein's son ceded the rights to the Verve songwriter, Richard Ashcroft."
Klein was a total POS. Jagger thought the man was smart until Klein gave himself the rights to their music, hence this lawsuit. Jagger convinced John Lennon he to get The Beatles to sign with him, McCartney wanted nothing to do with the man.
Wasn't Klein the manager defending George Harrison against the plagiarism claim against "My Sweet Lord" (vs. "He's so fine"), then Klein switched sides and was the plaintiff on behalf of the "He's so fine" writers?
Or something like that.
Oh wow I hadn't heard about that.
Copyright abuse IMHO.
Lets listen: This is how it sounds WITHOUT the sample // Bitter Sweet Symphony #theverve.
That was great. I learned about this in a copyright for music class in school but hearing this way really shows you what extent they sampled it.
I have no speakers right now. Does it sound basically the same or is it wildly different?
It is way less busy (in the background) w/o the samples. The tune you hear in your head when you think about this song is still there.
They got the fame but not the money. I guess you could say (puts on sunglasses) it was bittersweet. Yeeeaah!
They got the money.
Fun trivia: the Verve's music video "the drugs don't work" starts where the music video "bittersweet symphony" ends.
“Crosley Bendix Discusses the U.S. Copyright Act” (audio-only, YouTube)
Holy shit, someone else actually knows/remembers the Crosley Bendix reviews! I love the Squant review.
Never heard that Rolling Stones song before. Very interesting but of trivia there. Thanks for sharing!
They do had some nice songs outside of Bittersweet Symphony though.
Mildlytart Orchestra is definitely a banger and one of their hidden gems.
