    Music lyrics - where do I get permission?

    Hello all,

    Do I need permission to quote part of song lyrics on a print? If so does anyone know where I can get permissions/ licenses in the UK?

    I'm finding this all a bit of a minefield.

    many thanks

    You need permission and licensing if the song is under 90 years old. This page will give you a start. Personally I wouldn't bother unless you are doing a 100,000 print run with £10 profit on each shirt. Contact the publisher of the song not the recording studio or music label. Applies worldwide. Better still write your own.
    The real secret is to wisdom is to listen to the wise and follow their advice
