I'm not planning on releasing this on CD. I would just like it to be available for TV/ film use. As far as publishers, I've found several different publishers for this song. Probably because the music libraries/ publishers that use this for film want the PRO publishing royalties. Kind of complicated. This song does pass the composer time requirement for becoming public domain, but like "Happy Birthday", may be more complicated than that simple time formula. My publisher decided not to pursue the copyright status, because of the time and cost attached to it. That being said, there are many versions of this song done by many artists. I heard an instrumental version on the TV series Coach. John

"If you are stuck in your musical composing, be unreasonable. Change your environment. If you are stuck in your lyrical efforts, instead of forcing the same old words out, force yourself to do unreasonable things." -Brian Austin Whitney
