Summary

[edit]

Rationale of fair use for "Back to December" sample

[edit]

This is a sound sample from a commercial recording. Its inclusion here is claimed as fair use because:

  • It illustrates an educational article that specifically discusses the song from which this sample was taken. The section of music used is discussed in the article in relation to the song's lyrics, musical and vocal style, and may contain part of the song's chorus.
  • It is a sample of no more than 30 seconds from a much longer recording, and could not be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording or to recreate the original recording.
  • It is of a lower quality than the original recording.
  • It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted sample of comparable educational value.
  • It is believed that this sample will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original recording.
  • The audio sample is a copyrighted work. U.S. copyright laws apply to this work. Should a free or public domain sample be located, it should be used in place of this audio sample.

Non-free use rationale for Speak Now

[edit]
Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description A 30-second sample of "Back to December", a song by singer-songwriter Taylor Swift, taken from her 2010 album Speak Now
Author or
copyright owner
(C) Big Machine Records
Source (WP:NFCC#4) Speak Now album
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) Speak Now
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) It illustrates an educational article that specifically discusses the song from which this sample was taken. The section of the music used is discussed in the article in relation to the song's production (orchestral strings) and lyrics of the refrain, which received critical commentary.
Not replaceable with
free media because
(WP:NFCC#1)
As a sample from a copyright musical recording, the sample is not replaceable by free content; any other sample from the same recording would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. Using a different sample would be misleading as to the identity of the work.
Not replaceable with
textual coverage because
(WP:NFCC#1)
A music piece shall best be illustrated with a sound sample, since text alone cannot convey the production.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) The sample lasts for no longer than 10% of that of the original recording
Respect for
commercial opportunities
(WP:NFCC#2)
It would not likely to replace the original market role of the original copyrighted material as it is only 30 seconds of song of 4 minutes and 53 seconds in length and at a lower quality than the original.
Other information The audio sample is a copyrighted work. U.S. copyright laws apply to this work. Should a free or public domain sample be located, it should be used in place of this audio sample. The use of this excerpt is in good faith, and that its inclusion enhances the quality of the article without reducing the commercial value of the recording from which it was extracted.
