Public Domain Protest Song

Temple Alum Adam McKay (also writer/director of Talladega Nights and Step Brothers) is trying to provoke music consumers get loud, get pissed, and use our right to protest about what has been happening in the pubic domain recently isn't right.

Adam wants the public domain back, so he wrote a song. The Public Domain Protest Song Website launched today. The first lyrics of the song say, "This song aint copywrited. This song aint trademarked either. It's a public domain protest song!" McKay encourages users to remix, rewrite, mash-up and repost the song. But, even more he want musicians and people to get upset about how big corporations are taking advantage of the American people. The lyrics also say, "Profits climb and the jobs get shipped. Bottom 90% gets ripped." He wants people to realize we have the power to have our voices heard, we just aren't using them.

You can read about it at the Huffington Post too. The site launched today and when I visited it, they already had 437 people "like" them on Facebook. When you visit, also comment on how many people like it. Let's see how quickly this site gets major attention. More importantly, spread the word!
