Jimmy Page Found Not Guilty of Plagiarism with Stairway

[Picaro]

When I was a songwriter I was told never to send songs to publishing houses in Nashville, because if they like them, they will just rewrite them. This actually happened to me and the song was one of the largest c

This kind of news only makes me even more proud to be the country music listener that I have been since my first day on this planet because people in country music work for what they financially get. They don't try to score it through a lawsuit against someone else.

God bless you always!!!

Well it's hard to plagiarize country music because it all sounds the same

Not to me. A lot of it does sound the same, but there are plenty of differences too.

Well that right there is just it. Not every song is about beer drinking. Plenty of other subjects are sung about.

God bless you three always!!!

P.S. I actually think that these two songs sound alike.

The song that they made of it was called Jose Cuervo.

The only song by that name that I know of is the one that Shelly West did. Is that your song and it was changed by another person?

God bless you and her always!!!

Holly

P.S. Have you written anything else besides that song?

I wrote a lot of songs. Performed them myself, and other people did some of them. I do not live on the royalties or anything though.
