Unhappy Birthday -Addendum

Following on from my earlier post and, as you may have read, Warner Chappell have lost their rights to the copyright in ‘Happy Birthday’. They can no longer extract a license fee for its public use and, in fact, could have to pay back millions of $ in royalties it has received over the years. A jolly good outcome for lovers of the song around the world.

Expect the famous refrain to pop up in numerous films and TV shows over the coming months…
