Hi John

Mike and You will have to explain what a publisher does to earn 100% of an unrecognized songwriter. crazy A Nashville publisher shouldn't earn 100% because the songwriter isn't recognized yet, what's that got to do with it. crazy

So please explain.

What do I earn being the songwriter??
What does my producer earn for his take on the music??
What does my publisher Mike Caro earn??
What does the Artist earn??

If Reba recorded "Don't push my button" and their was 30 million copies sold, what would I earn out of those 30 million copies sold, what would all the others earn???

Okay, how about Mike 50% goes to you, but out of your 50%, 10% of your 50% goes to Mental Health, smile and I'll do the same, that means will both end up with 40%, and Mental Health will earn 20% VERY WORTHY CAUSE! grin or 45% & 5% to Mental Health. smile

I DRIVE A HARD BARGAIN! smile Even though I think Mike is worth 100%. whistle

hugs Michele
