RE: No One Knows | Queens Of The Stone Age | Acoustic Cover

in #music6 years ago

Hmm... I guess I did not realize that we could just make money on here by covering other people's copyrighted material? From what I understand, it isn't such a big deal if you are a performing band and do a couple of song covers during a show, but to profit exclusively off of other people's creations? Is that right? Am I missing something here? Hence the reason I have not done an upvote with this one. Looks like you have already been pretty well rewarded for your efforts. A musician friend of mine, who does all original material , only made $700 in a year and a half of doing original material, which was great stuff. If anyone can correct me on this issue, and prove me wrong, I will happily share song covers on here until the "cows come home", I mean, my kid needs to eat too. Great job on the covering the song, by the way. It isn't my intent to insult, it is just my intent to understand what I can and cannot get away with on here. If filming my musician friend doing song covers is going to feed my kid better than writing about truths, why bother seeking and spreading truth? Thanks for sharing. <3

Do what you gotta do man! I am just doing what I can to get my name out there for now so that when I do release my original music I actually have people who want to hear it! I love music with everything in my being.... If this is all I can do for now then thats what I am going to do. Please be patient with me. Original music is coming. And I can't wait! But this is what I can do right now. I hope people will enjoy it!

I will want to hear it when you do! Just don't cover any of my boyfriend's songs, though. Not that it would be easy to do. He can't play them. He had to hire extra-dimensional beings to do the music. His writing hasn't been the same since he fell into that vat of LSD along with a TV set that was tuned into Adult Swim. If you do choose to do so, we will find a way to mutually benefit. Thanks for the response. Take care. Much love! <3 (poof) she's gone!
