I thought she sold her catalog when she was done with the Mac in 1998? Everywhere was used in a commercial so it appears to be true. Did she buy them back? How can she sell all the songs again?
We demand answers!!!!

We need answers, because this scenario makes ZERO sense.

OMG now Michele is going to pounce on me to try to find that 1988 Billboard article I had stating Christine sold her publishing.

I’m no completely sure what selling a catalog means. When I read about Dylan selling his catalog, it meant the new owner will not have to share any future earnings from this contribution with Dylan. In addition, he lost control over the copyright of all the songs he has created during his career.
Are these always the same terms? It’s the same with Christine songs? What happen if the band (well, I’m being polite, if Mick…) want to reissue Rumours (don't laugh, it's always possible)? Do they have to ask Hypgnosis permission? Or just share the revenue with them? Same with live songs, if Fleetwood Mac (whatever lineup with Christine) play her songs live, they need Hypgnosis permission? How does all this work from now on?

Villavic, I don’t believe if FM performs songs live that they have to pay the songwriter, or Hipgnosis. What I believe Hipgnosic can do with any catalogs they’ve purchased is get royalties if the songs are used in movies. For example, if the next Guardians of the Galaxy movie includes Little Lies, then Hipgnosis would receive payment, not the songwriter(s). Also, they would have to grant permission for the movie to use the song. So what can happen, and why some people get cranky about songwriters selling their catalog even though it’s none of their business, is that Hypgnosis can sell the song for commercials. Imagine You Make Loving Fun being used in a commercial for a dating app, or Over My Head for a bankruptcy commercial.
I’m sure there’s much more to it, but those are the things that are most commonly associated with selling catalogs. Basically, they sell the rights now instead of leaving the estate to deal with it. I don’t blame any of them one bit for selling catalogs of songs that are nearly 50 years old. Get the cash now and divvy it up in their wills. Last edited by bwboy; 08-10-2021 at 10:25 AM.. |

She could have simply purchased the rights back at some point in time, right?
McCartney said he contemplated buying the rights back from Michael Jackson several times over the decades.

If so, isn't it weird that none of us has ever heard about it? I mean we share everything FM that we ever come across... how DARE Christine do something without our knowLEDGE!

There's a lot of information above on this. I think in my opinion: Not all of it, and not all the rights.
