Tsk 50 years~ Beatles going into Public Domain

1962-2012 50years!

Oh my.... time really flies... and it was really just shocking to know that the first single, "Love me do" from the Beatles has just gotten into the public domain and is free to use! oh my... i guess loads of people were waiting for 1st Jan 2013 and upload and publish their covers and remixes of this song. haha

Under the European law, a song's copyright expires after 50 years, and not the usual 70 years (in Sg), as i read from a site that its cause Europeans are estimating that an average lifespan of humans are at 35 years. lol. that is why they revised their copyright law, which is cool, to loads of musicians, and production companies. haha.

So here's a link to the ever popular hit song from the Beatles!


Pretty shocking, as usually all we know is classical music, now there's one from our era~ ah.
