Cubs song

[edit]

Is it legal to publicly distribute and advertise a parody of Go, Cubs, Go? Not sure if there are copyright issues or if some entity owns the song. 147.126.10.152 (talk) 05:31, 15 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

We can't give you legal advice, which in any case depends where you are. In any case it's complicated. See Parody#Copyright_issues.--Shantavira|feed me 07:53, 15 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
