my beef aint the money making or really the answer song (even tho the answer song has the most offkey and worst written lyrics ive ever heard) it the fact that a popular, legitimate music site would carry a blatantly wrong article :confused:
That is because they are going by the "legitimate" information given them by the "legitimate" record companies involved. I don't know whether both songs are owned by the same people or not, but everybody involved realizes that the most money can be made on either record by perpetuating the myth. The original song is most likely bullshit...which is why the true ex girlfriend thinks it's great...and the answer makes heaps more money by prolonging the life of the original as well as feeding off of that life for itself, while kicking back a hefty sum for the owners of the original. The absolute best way for ALL involved parties to capitalize off of this is by perpetuating that myth for as long and as loudly as possible.
