Possibly the song off-recognized in English, "Happy Birthday to You" didn 't the song starts out as good birthday wishes. The air of this beloved songs was closed in 1893 by Mildred Hill sisters of the teacher at school and from the hill of pie. The two teachers wanted a greeting monotonous referred welcome their young instructs the school every day. They came with air that is simple universally sung to the words of what is now "Happy Birthday to You." In its original form, however, the song went like this: Good morning to you, good morning to you. Good morning, dear children, good morning to you. In fact, these words are often still sung today in quell'stessa air in elementary schools around the globe. Since it is likely every child knows the English-speaking, the air is perfect for just about any simple lyric poetry. When the words, Happy Birthday to You "were added to the air remains something of a mystery. What is known of this is that by 1935 that the birthday song was transformed into one in this part of popular culture that its copyright was bought by publishers of music Summy Company.The still holds the copyright today. Undoubtedly, Summy has seen a profit-generating potential in the small humble birthday song. So far, the company has not spedetto police nab song for each singer of romantic songs not guilty and confident that tie off the air dear to a birthday party. , However, receive copyright from many sources. Technically, the entire public performance of the song requires that copyrights are paid to Summy Company. Every time I heard that he made into a film or any for-profit contrary to the provision, you could also feel the change clinking in the pockets of paintings by Summy. Canadians, on the one hand, they can sing freely without fear of clinking process. This is because in Canada, the copyright to extend only 50 years after the passage of the author. "Birthday" happy, provided the public domain in Canada in 1985.Many people are surprised to learn that "Happy birthday to you" is actually owned by a private company. This is the consternation of many of the song 'fans voted for s. After all, the song 's predecessor, "Good morning, everyone," is currently the public domain. Songs that the same air with lyrics it is known CONUN more closely and you risk you have to pay people to Summy.Ordinary miffed that, thanks to some changes in the law on the Rights of Author in the 70s and 90s, Summy 'rights s the birthday song were extended. Was intended for the public domain in 1991, Summy will continue to profit from it until 2030. Many people consider that the legitimate birthday song belongs to the public, especially since the sisters of the hill have not benefited from the original ever. If you would have wanted to be is another question. The sisters of the hill just stated to write a catchy and easy - and sing-to-remember the song for the children. It 's highly unlikely that one or the other teacher has ever the notion that their number would turn humble in what is today. The times have changed considerably since 1893. What was once a simple gift to the school has brought in just over a century, becomes an digenerazione monster, much discussed by its proponents.
