Plagiarising somebody else's tune to write a hit single is usual a one-way ticket to a law suit. But when the tune you borrowed is in the public domain, for better or for worse, you can 'plagiarise' as much as you like!

0:00 Pachelbel’s Canon
3:43 Queen vs. Vesti La Giubba
4:36 Elvis Presley
7:06 Radiohead vs. Chopin
8:24 The Beatles vs. Moonlight Sonata
9:50 Whiter Shade of Pale vs. Bach
11:38 Minuet in G
13:00 Eric Carmen vs. Rachmaninoff

📍NOTE: I have edited out the section about Jimi Hendrix's music entering the public domain in 2040 as it has been brought to my attention that the current US copyright law is only applicable to works released after 1976. So Hendrix's music will actually enter the public domain closer to 2065.

An extra special thanks goes to Vidad Flowers, Daniel Long, Bruce Mount, Toot & Paul Peijzel, the channel’s Patreon saints! 😇
