How did the Rolling Stones make $5 million from a song they had nearly nothing to do with? The Verve’s “Bittersweet Symphony” uses a sample of a Stones cover (which is really a wholly new composition), while the Stones original is itself based on an uncredited interpolation of a gospel standard…yet for 20 years the only musicians getting paid from “Bittersweet” were Mick & Keith. One of the biggest songwriting ripoffs of all time, in an industry rife with them, but happily there is a (bittersweet) ending. #shorts #songwriting
