Zsolti 2,688 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 What if this is Lady Gaga Now's idea of an april fools prank? They could have contacted BMI and get us all fooled with their 'no prank from us this year' tweet. Think about it. Please correct me if I make any grammar mistakes, I want to master English as much as possible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason why they don't include the artist credit for unreleased songs is because anyone (even non-songwriters) can be performing artists for that particular song.

The reason why they don't include the artist credit for unreleased songs is because anyone (even non-songwriters) can be performing artists for that particular song. Well the way I understand it is that an Artist credit credits the performer for that particular song. Like Born This Way has Lady Gaga and the Glee Cast since they also released their version of that song. That credit restricts anyone else using that song without permission (which is why it is registered in BMI in the first place). So since this new entry has Gaga as the only performer, I belive she is the only person permitted to perform/release this work. Unless I'm totally wrong who knows anymore Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Gaga is the only party entitled to release her own material sounds perfect to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least she knows when it's raining. It's like she has ESPN or something.

Well thats the whole thing, since she is is credited as a Artist on Room to my Heart, that means there are intentions of releasing/performing this song. Other unreleased material that was registered (like ARTPOP b-sdies) dont have an artist credit since there are no intentions of releasing them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
