The lyrics included on this page are by Bruce Blunt, who died in 1957. Copyright would therefore normally not expire until 70 years after this date, which would be in 2028. Is there any known reason why this does not apply here? Redtilewombat (talk) 04:01, 6 October 2024 (UTC)

After some more research, I believe this is  public domain in the US. It was published in 1927 and, according to https://imslp.org/wiki/IMSLP:Copyright_Made_Simple, "Any work first published before 1929 is in the public domain."
It will likely remain under copyright in the European Union, South Korea and Japan until 2028 as the lyricist died in 1957.
I believe the information given in the GA review above under "Copyvio check" to be incorrect.
I will leave the "copyright violation(?)" tag in the article for a more experienced person to review independently. Redtilewombat (talk) 09:02, 6 October 2024 (UTC)
