sizes=\"(max-width: 417px) 100vw, 417px\" \/>During this current political campaign season, and some others in recent years, we\u2019ve seen several recording artists who have balked at the use of a particular song they have recorded when is has been used at a political rally.\u00a0 As recently as this summer, for example, the Rolling Stones and the estate of George Harrison have insisted that Republican Presidential nominee Donald Trump stop using songs each had made famous many years ago.\u00a0\u00a0This was also seen in the past when some advertisers used iconic pop\/rock \u2018n roll hits to feature their clients\u2019 products and services.<\/p>\n<p>As a passionate devotee of 60\u2019s music, particularly that from the \u2018British Invasion\u2019, I rather enjoy hearing these familiar, favorite tunes pretty much whenever they are played.\u00a0\u00a0And, I enjoy these songs as much for the words as the melodies.<\/p>\n<p>Which I suspect is a fairly good reason we see advertisers and campaign managers choosing certain songs as part of the messaging they want to convey and the communications they want to accomplish.\u00a0\u00a0If they enjoy it because of a catchy or relevant title, phrase or verse, they\u2019re usually right that other people&#8211;particularly those of age ranges similar to their own\u2014will also have positive responses when they hear their favorite, familiar riffs and refrains.<\/p>\n<p>All of which then brings these diverse passions of the music these artists created \u00ad\u2013 even if was quite different three, four or even\u00a0<em>five decades ago<\/em>\u2014on these recent collision courses in which an artist\u2019s vision or intent and the intrinsic value a listener, or advertiser, or campaign manager may have.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0And when you think about it, the artist and the advertiser (and of course, their clients) at one point or another all have a genuine interest in making money, profiting, and building their business.\u00a0 The politician?\u00a0 He or she are pursuing positive name-recognition and ultimately votes.<\/p>\n<p>And for people like you and I?\u00a0 Well, we seem to want a certain song (or two) to come on the radio when we\u2019re driving so we can sing it out at the top of our lungs, or perhaps to enjoy again a fond memory. \u00a0Or we might want that song played at a time to pay tribute to someone we admire a great deal at a special occasion, such as a wedding, retirement, birthday or anniversary.\u00a0 Many people also exercise vigorously to their favorite songs!<\/p>\n<p>As you begin to consider the many ways in which we include music from professional artists, you also begin to see that the artists of today recognize the same thing that the artists of the past have:\u00a0 We enjoy music, in some cases certain music very much and to the extent that we will pay for the ability to hear it again when we want to hear it the most.<\/p>\n<p>I do not attempt to defend any one politician, campaign, advertiser or manufacturer\u2014but I have to ask this question for all of them\u00a0<em>and for all of us<\/em>:\u00a0 If we are offered and then pay for a legal product, in this case music, and that price includes the ability (licensing) to use the product to promote another lawful product or information campaign, should the very artist who enjoys the freedom from censorship to write, sing, record and sell that music have the ability to dictate who should be allowed to have it or use it?\u00a0 Does that presumed authority not begin to rapidly encroach upon roughly the very same dangers that other forms of censorship risk us all to?<\/p>\n<p>While every artist must have the privilege to think and create and present their ideologies in one form or another, be it sculpture or sound, canvass or dance, we the recipients of these created works must be diligent to preserve the availability for us to present them in turn as a representation of our own, more specific feelings, beliefs and ideals.<\/p>\n<p>The special relationship we have with our artists is one that allows us to bring infinitely greater value beyond the price to appreciate these creations, and is as imperative to our freedoms as the standards that define our community.\u00a0 That fundamental privilege to speak freely must be as completely available to the person to repeats the words of another\u2014even in the original voice\u2014as the artist who crafted it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During this current political campaign
