I guess to the desperate Nashville writer, its worth it to try anything to give him an edge. If the publisher says no, well you werent going anywhere anyway.
I always wondered what is the worst that could happen if getting sued for plagerism? Nobody knew you, now they do. You made more money because people are now listening because of the suit. Your name gets out there.
If Im writing a song, and it sounds an awful lot like Travis Tritt, it either A, sits doing nothing. or B, becomes a hit, I get sued, but still get half the money it makes. Not a bad deal. Its a twisted way of looking at it, but its the truth.
Steal somebody elses hit, and you become a hit songwriter too.
Looking at it like that, it shows that you could steal something 90%, and still not do anything with it, cause you dont have a way to make it a hit. Think of that one... you HAVE a hit song, you already know its a hit minus a few lines or beats here and there, and you still cant get it out there.
And if these publishers were so sharp, why is their a plagerism suit every week now?

"Sometimes reaching a goal earlier than planned is a great achievement. It shows you have worked hard, pushed ahead and made it happen. However, sometimes reaching a goal far past your original deadline, long after you wanted to complete it, and after the accolades you might once have gotten for the achievement are over, it is an even greater achievement. This shows you never gave up, due to adversity, deficit, criticism and those little life detours that end many dreams and goals. In many ways, this is a reason for even more pride!" -Brian Austin Whitney
