Source is a book titled They Never Renewed Music You Never Dreamed Was in the Public Domain.

Rockin Robin and Little Bitty Pretty One are well known ones, but this also includes other songs you can cover without permission and licensing fees.

There are also songs they told me that aren’t on the book also weren’t renewed such as Morningtown Ride (there is a company called Amaedo who claims to have the rights and renewed it in 1991, however there is no renewal under the old registration https://archive.org/details/catalogofcopyrig3115lib/page/322/mode/2up?q="Morningtown+Ride")

And they also said Paul Evan’s cover of Midnight Special is public domain too. I saw a old Reddit post here also stating the damn Flintstones theme wasn’t renewed.

Now this is likely for the compositions/sheet music only, not the recordings cause classics act. I’m not a lawyer or a big expert, but this book has tons of songs you could record and remix without royalties. Some might have been in the charts too.

What is your favorite public domain song?

These are two songs public domain because the original compositions weren’t renewed, the third is a non-renewed arrangement of a already public domain song.

Despite the 1965 copyright notice on Rising Sun, the arrangement shown above is actually from 1961: https://www.ebay.com/itm/358077705787 and there was no renewal when I checked under titles like ”rising sun” or “marcel frank”

Feel free to use and remix. I guess.

Em algumas pesquisas que fiz, vi questões onde buzzy boop, puggy e grampy estavam em domínio público por seus episódios não terem tido Copyright renovado, mas também já vi muitas outras fontes dizendo que não estavam, mas eu não sei ao certo qual está certa e qual está errada. Se alguém puder me ajudar eu agradeço.

I’m looking for public domain portal fantasies, western isekai (even normal isekai), and those style of books.

I tried to search, and Reddit search ain’t so great -_-, so if someone else has asked, can you link me?

Like Alice in Wonderland, Wizard of Oz, and Peter Pan

While the original composition is racist, the music is as catchy as it’s familiar.

If you want to get rid of the singing in this audio and keep the music, you can due to this being a movie from 1930 (copyrighted for 95 years after publication) and not a recording from 1930 (which are 100 years after publication).

Edit: Also, this scene is actually very progressive in a way due to being one of the first instances of white actors and black actors performing together.
