The song Happy Birthday to You has universal appeal
Scenario Summary The song Happy Birthday to You has
universal appeal. Almost everyone knows its lyrics and melody, and it is sung
to millions of people on a daily basis. However, what many people do not know
is that the song Happy Birthday to You is copyrighted. The song was written by
two sisters from Kentucky in the late 19th century. They copyrighted the song
many years later in the 1930s. Afterwards, the copyright to the song was sold
for a large amount of money. Since then, the copyright to the song has changed
hands several times. Nonetheless, the copyright still stands and is not set to
expire for quite some time. As a result, any time the song is sung in a public
performance, the copyright holder is entitled to royalty payments, which bring
in millions of dollars every year for the copyright holder. Your
