  • He doesn't need Sony's permission to sing it...only to record it and sell it...I wish he did need permission though...that was TERRIBLE! (just my opinion)
  • It was taped May 8th, 2009. He would have needed Michael's permission, I think.
  • It really depends on the school and what the performance was for (I suppose I could watch it again and find that out). Anyway, almost all schools purchase something (I can't remember for the life of me what it's called as I'm writing this), but they purchase it from ASCAP (American Society of Composers, Authors & Publishers). This allows them to use copyrighted materials within the school (for example someone singing in a school auditorium at a talent contest, the music used by the marching band, etc....conversely, rights do have to be bought for musical productions). It is the same thing that bars purchase so that they are covered with bands come into their establishments and play covers. The bands don't pay rights to perform them, they don't ask the artists for permission and they are breaking no copyright laws because almost every bar that has live music is covered (look for the sticker on the door...you'll be amazed 'cause you never saw it before!) The only time copyright laws are broken in any of the above cases is if it is recorded and sold.

    This is a freaking disgrace.
  • I don't know if that boy is breaking the law, but when I studied at school and at the university, we often sang somebody's songs for school events, and MJ's also, and it never occurred to anyone that we were breaking any law.
  • bleh.. oh adam, dont you dare try to be Michael. ya dont come close, boy. Michael is indeed, the King of Pop, Rock and Soul!

    Michael has class. Adam does not know what that is.
  • I don't know if that boy is breaking the law, but when I studied at school and at the university, we often sang somebody's songs for school events, and MJ's also, and it never occurred to anyone that we were breaking any law.

    That's because you weren't
  • I really wonder..is this insulting..
    or sooooo damn bad, that it is already funny?

    just a proof that no one can replace MJ...
  • nobody can sing mj songs but the man himself the master ,shut up adam my ears are bleeding <!-- s:shock: -->:shock:<!-- s:shock: -->
