Thank you so much for sharing this! I like to be informed of legal rules to respect and I also appreciate that you reminded everyone to please do one’s own research as well.

I had a karaoke scene in my first book and studied how SGR in Love, Lists and Fancy Ships described songs in its karaoke scene without using lyrics. The key is to focus on the feelings evoked by the songs rather than the lyrics themselves.

I’ve paraphrased lyrics before, and I’ve invented my own lyrics. I think capturing the feel of a song is a good aim!
