Unfortunately, I received a cease and desist from Sony Music for using the original recording of "Tequila" and had to remove videos/mp3s from all platforms including Patreon. This is the first time this has happened and I'm bummed out about it.

I enjoy making these mixes but the last thing I need is to face legal action for using certain copyrighted songs. 

My apologies, and thank you for understanding.

Damn, sorry to hear about that, but I totally understand!

Matt Rose

Well that sucks.

JOHN FOSTER

Sony owns the rights to "Happy Birthday to You", so now everybody uses something different. Those Sony assholes want EVERY last penny! All that Beatles publishing! Paul M. will NEVER get Sony to turn loose of that stuff! Sorry to hear that you had to take that song down from everywhere, but we understand... Don't let it scare you from doing what you do best!

Jesse Holsey

It used to be Warner/Chappell that owned the Happy Birthday To You song John not Sony, In 2016 Warner got sued and once the 2016 lawsuit was over Warner had to pay back 14 million dollars it's now in the public domain.

Carlos Sanchez

No need to apologize. No one wants to get into unnecessary legal trouble. Copyright laws suck. Love your work!

Austin Camacho

OTOH kinda cool that Sony even noticed your use of the old tune. Your profile is high enough for them to see you! I remember the praise artists used to get for letting Weird Al satirize their songs. Maybe Sony will figure out that this kind of action makes them the bad guy to a lot of music lovers.

Robey Saylors

Dude, you’re the best, no need to apologize. We all love and appreciate you and your talent!!! Sony is the asshole here. You please keep doing what you do.

Brian Su

Don't be sorry, you've brought us all great joy

Felix Alvarez

Corporate scumbags, they should be thanking you.

Stephen Gunter

That's a pity. Which mashup was it used in?

Andrew Game

Man, that sucks. Well, thousands of people who aren't corporate stooges love your work.

Marcelo Duhá

No worries. We watched it, we enjoyed it. That's what matters❤️

Billy Comstock

What a joke!! I could see if you were selling it, but you’re not, i agree with everyone else, no apologies necessary, keep up the great work

Daniel Hinojosa

They're just pendejos, Bill. I am surprised that your Marvin Gaye and Ratt mashup is still on YouTube with all the Marvin Gaye estate suits over copy infringement happening.

Lisa Mallinckrodt

I'm sorry to hear that. Please don't let it stop you from making mash-ups. Love your work!

RTJ

That’s lame. They should be offering you a record deal

Joanna Wygocka

I'm listening to your stuff right now. It's amaizing how it moves at least three emotions at once and makes them dance like a fire of colours inside the already dancing body. This is fucking healing shit! Thank you so much!

They're only jealous that you've done a better job than their 'best' could do! :) Keep on rocking! Much love xxx

Brian Johnson

I should have downloaded it. It was awesome. Oh well.

Steve Adams

Can I say it? Screw corporate S@ny and others like them (YT) for blocking your work. Keep you the tremendously hard work that so many like myself absofuckinglutely love
