I just wanted them. They were mine. Kind of dumb, really, but I wound up owning these wonderful songs, so it's turned out great. There are hundreds of recordings of that song. Actually, if I were to sell that song today, it would be worth in the tens of millions of dollars probably.
Copyrights are very valuable.
I would not care to say, but it brings in a lot. But all the songs together bring in a lot more. And all these songs are in print. Every album I have ever made is in print. You probably didn't hear it, but it made a lot of money for the sync license.
