Oh who are they kidding. Zeppelin's entire act was a ripoff of Deep Purple.

best. Internationally it becomes even more fuzzy - just ask Andrew
Lloyd Weber and the Puccini Estate.

Weber steals from himself. By the time you've heard three of his scores you've heard most of his tricks already.

Roger Waters hates Weber.... Roger claimed Weber had lifted the main riff from Echoes for use in Phantom.

Roger even said in the song "It's a Miracle" -


We cower in our shelters
With our hands over our ears
Lloyd-Webber's awful stuff
Runs for years and years and years
An earthquake hits the theatre
But the operetta lingers
Then the piano lids comes down
And break his fucking fingers
It's a miracle

awesome.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised, but it made me do a double-take anyway...

There is a "Kidz Bop" version of "What Does The Fox Say"

Bolero is finally public domain.

I didn't realize it wasn't. But it's clearly public domain now.

This means you can legally film yourself having sex to that music and not worry about copyright strikes against you.

Well, I meant you could have sex with your partner while Bolero plays in the background, and film it without worrying of copyright strikes, but I suppose if you can get yourself off while literally fucking the music, more power to you.

Great. One wonders if you're thinking about Bo Derek or Dudley Moore at that point?

Hmm... Dudley Moore in blackface... it isn't working for me.

Well considering he's dead....

Fairly so, yes.

Schroedeger's Dudley Moore.

Hmm... Dudley Moore in blackface... it isn't working for me.

Ok then, how about Bo Derek, in blackface, and in drag?

Definitely not doing it for me.

Is there a case to be made for Dudley Moore's Law, having to do with racial inequality in shrinking memory requirements?

Dudley Moore has PSP (progressive supranuclear palsy) so he's kind of experiencing Moore's Law in reverse.

Had. Died in 2002.

Ok then, Zombie Dudley Moore?
