In this video, Berklee Online course author Dr. E. Michael Harrington describes how to distinguish between fair use and copyright infringement through examples such as “Something in the Way She Moves,” by James Taylor, which George Harrison borrowed for a popular Beatles song. Dr. Harrington also explores cases involving the Dixie Chicks with their song, “Sin Wagon.” Another song called “I’ll Fly Away,” written by Albert Bromley, is the complete opposite of “Sin Wagon”; they have completely different ideas behind them. The Dixie Chicks wanted to use “I’ll Fly Away” to create a parody. They were sued for those three words, “I’ll fly away,” even though parody is fair use, which is legal. Dr. Harrington cites a peculiar example of Miles Davis and Jimi Hendrix as well. He explains how even though a title is not copyrightable, if the title is also a lyric, then it is copyrightable. Parody, according to the Supreme Court, means you have to take from the heart of the song because the listener has to be reminded of what the song is about. If you state a melody the same way another artist did (such as the Beatles), the same number of times, this is direct copying. It is debatable whether or not this is fair use.
