it’s tricky, my sharona!

zugegeben, ich bin ja auch kein freund des mainstream radios, aber wie bitteschön kann einem denn it’s tricky von RUN DMC entgehen?

in a 49-page complaint filed last month, The Knack’s front man Doug Fieger and lead guitarist Berton Averre claim that Run DMC illegally copied parts of their 1978 hit “My Sharona” into Run DMC’s 1986 hit “It’s Tricky.” Although the statute of limitations for copyright infringement is three years, Fieger and Averre claim they had never heard Run DMC’s song — one of the most famous rap songs of all time — until August 2005.

kleiner rechtlicher spass am rande: die klage richtet sich gegen online-anbieter, weil die das stück ja bei jedem download erneut kopieren. stop the madness…
