Hello!
I translated the song “Cold Water” by Tom Waits into Italian. Through the Italian sub-publisher which deals with the rights of Mr. Waits and his label in Italy, I requested recognition of my Italian adaptation to be able to publish and distribute it.
My adaptation was approved by both authors of the song. If you need I have the authorization by the sub-publisher. In this document is made clear that my adaptation “Acqua fredda" and its lyrics are an alternative title and lyrics to the original work.
I believe this is a cover with Italian text authorized by the authors and publisher. Can I proceed with the publication?
The song was also already released in March this year with another distributor, so there shouldn’t be any problems. But I want to be sure!
Hi @cantheproducer thank you for your reply.
I have already read every section of that article of this topic, I don’t know if you need this document from the sub-publisher that authorized me the publication of the song (and how can I send you if you need it), or if I can proceed directly to point 1 filling all the right information (composer, lycist and publisher) during the upload.
Thank you very much for your time
Nic
