Men At Work sued by kookaburra
It’s a sad and disgusting day today when the little flute interlude from Men At Work’s ‘Down Under’ loses a court case against the new owners of the song “Kookaburra Sits In The Old Gum Tree”. It’s not the melody, it’s a little filler, and it’s really just a small snippet of notes in a sequence, and it’s the 3rd, 5th & 6th notes of the scale, and there’s other stuff in the middle.
As a musician and an Australian, I’m bloody disgusted.
