Tom Petty tells Bachmann "Don't Come Around Here No More"

Rush pays for his bumper music every time he plays it. I forget who the artist is but she's a lefty, takes his check and signs it over to lefty causes. Rush says without him these causes would probably go bankrupt. :)
 
Martina McBride appears to be very much alive.

Again, it would depend on how much of the song was used. Let's say, there was this leftist band that sang a song played on Rush Limbaugh's show (BTW, there is), so long as he played only a portion of the song he could continue to use it as his bumper music without having to pay royalties. The same would be true for Michelle. It depends on how much of the song she used.

In this case it is likely that Tom has the right to tell her to quit using his song, especially if she used more than a small portion of the song at introduction, however it isn't an absolute right, it depends on exactly how much of the song is used.

You'll see this in usage on American Idol often, they'll allow their singers to sing only a portion of a song, and they know exactly how much can be used without permission, believe me. When a full song is used they need to get permission, they usually refuse to pay for that until near the end of the show... Hence you'll get portions played, but not full songs unless it is from a list of "free use" songs where the copyright is free, until the show reaches the point where the audience is voting and where they deem it worth the cost to pay the royalties.

what authority mentions that it is only a matter of how much the song is used?
 
Well I ain’t never been the barbie doll type
No I can’t swig that sweet champagne,
I’d rather drink beer all night
In a tavern or in a honky tonk or on a
4 wheel drive tailgate

I’ve got posters on my wall of Skynard,
Kid and Strait
Some people look down on me but I don’t
give a rip
I’ll stand barefooted in my own front yard
with a baby on my hip

Cause I’m a redneck woman
And I ain’t no high class broad
I’m just a product of my raisin’
And I say “hey y’all” and “Yee Haw”
And I keep my Christmas lights on, on my front porch all year long
And I know all the words to every Charlie Daniels song
So here’s to all my sisters out there keepin’ it country
Let me get a big “Hell Yeah” from the redneck girls like me

Hell Yeah
Hell Yeah

Victoria’s Secret, well their stuff’s real nice
Oh but I can buy the same damn thing on a Wal*Mart shelf half price
And still look sexy, just as sexy as those models on TV
No I don’t need no designer tag to make my man want me
You might think I’m trashy, A little too hard core
But in my neck of the woods I’m just the girl next door...

Hell Yeah!

Do you think Bach-to-Mom's male master Marcus would approve of this song?

Doesn't sound as if Martina is submitted enough. She's also pretty scary looking, IMO, as are other inbred trailer trash favorites like LeeAnn Rimes and Taylor Swift.





 
"for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching ... , scholarship, or research."

Yeah, a campaign probably couldn't be considered that, if it was used for the campaign specifically.

She could actually use the whole song if she was criticizing the song in a speech... Tom wouldn't be able to do a thing about that. :D
 
LOL, Dumb Yankee pwned ; Gretchen Peters, the woman who wrote 'Independence Day' - which is about domestic abuse, BTW, had something to say:



Conservative radio talk show host Sean Hannity started using the chorus of this song as his introduction music in 2001.




Regarding Hannity playing this song, Peters has this to say: "They have to pay me every time they play it, and I don't have any control over whether they play it or not. I can't make them stop. I don't agree with the guy on anything. But they do pay me. I guess I feel it kind of puts me in slightly better position to support the causes I believe in. I know that he's using it, I know he's completely disregarding what the song's about. It has nothing to do with patriotism or anything like that. But that's an old story. That's a really old story. I think it was Reagan who used 'Born In The U.S.A.' for his campaign song. And I wanted to say, Hey, have you listened to that song? It's about the Vietnam War - hello?"

The same authority, if the song is recognizable as the original and is used for commercial purposes, she would have to pay. Hence we get into a "general public" rulings. It would be better to ask your local radio show who uses bumper music for their talk radio. They have to follow that portion.

Basically, because the song isn't played to make money (it isn't a music show), they can play a portion of songs as bumper music. How much would constitute a violation? I'm not sure.

Anyway, my post previous was in answer to yours, I was going to concede the point, but since you are such an ass here and acting like I didn't answer you, I'll not do that. Why don't you look it up? Give a couple calls? Maybe I'm wrong, but you will still have acted like a total jerk after I had conceded the point.

It's possible, Rush plays more of the song than most radio shows do. However, not all radio shows pay royalties to play bumper music, and they are able to do that because they play only a portion and aren't using the song itself to make money.
 
From Dumb Yankee's (s)hit list:

Alice Cooper - has-been shock rocker whose last hit was in Christ-knows-when. Currently slinging foot-long wieners called "Big Units'.




Lynyrd Skynrd - 70s tribute band with exactly one (1) original member still milking the oldies circuit. Original (dead) members were drunken drug addicts, just the ticket for GOP values. Last hit was last a long time ago, in the last century.




Ted Nugent - deadbeat dad who once got guardianship of an underage girl so he could screw her. What a role model. Last hit was....70's? Nobody remembers.




Beach Boys - original members mostly dead, main songwriter is insane. Another nostalgia/tribute band; last hit was in 1988.




Frank Sinatra - Dead. Was pals with mobsters.




Hank Williams - Dead. Was a bigger drunk than Billy Barstool.




Johnny Ramone - Dead. Was a drunken drug addict in a group self-described as "punk".




Jeff Baxter - Minor sideman whose last hit was in 1978 or thereabouts. Has been moonlighting as a defense contractor since the 80's.

I think you are stretching the bounds of fair use beyond their limits by claiming that radio broadcaster of music for needle drops/bumper music are fair use. It seems to me that radio broadcasting is a commercial purpose and that introductory music/needle drops/bumper music are the use of copyrighted works for commercial purposes such that fair use probably does not apply, however short the snippet is.

Actually no, I'm not "stretching"... Talk radio, like this website, usually would fall within fair use practices. Now, a music station wouldn't. If they used "bumper" music, as a music station and not something that is purposed as "editorializing" or "educating", which most talk radio shows would fall under (and which would put them within fair use), the music station would have to pay, I am not sure about the bumper music for radio stations though. I may be wrong and they may all pay royalties for their bumper songs. I was going to concede the point, but after Yurt decided to act like an ass I decided against it.
