    The song is mine. I wrote it with June, I sing it, I created the melody, I recorded my vocals in my studio, and they do not own it.

    That’s not enough to “own” a peace of copyrighted material or work. This depends on the license and contract. Note, I am not arguing against his opinion that this work is his own, I just argue that the given reasoning can be not enough (depending on the situation). He claims to be the owner and to get paid, but WE as the reader who don’t have all details don’t know if that is really his right (to get the money). From the outside it looks like another victim of capitalism. But really, without all the details, I would not automatically empathize based on claims. I wish him good luck, if there are no bad intentions behind it.

      I think his point is that it should he enough for him to own the song, but copyright is dumb.

        I personally don’t think that “Copyright” itself is bad idea. In example without Copyright, we could not have Open Source rights like the GPL. However I acknowledge that there are negative effects of the Copyright system and companies and lot of people misuse it to make money or to hurt.
