Sesame street always was known for their great music spoofs. This one was almost a very expensive one. According to Norhtern Songs (the company who owned the publishing rights to all beatles-songs) this one resembled the original a bit too much. So they decidet to sue Sesame street for $5.5 million, In comes Micheal Jackson, buying all the rights to every single Beatle-song, and dropped the charges.
I would love to see this go to court, since to me it is very clear that this is a 1) a parody, and 2) doesn’t resemble the original ‘let it be”. How can you sue a band called the Beetles?
No song about the letter ‘B’ could be done better than by…All hail the king. BB King!
of-course if you want to sing the entire Alfabet, no better deal than ‘the Genuis’. He knows every single letter.
