Members Forever8 Posted April 18, 2021 Members Share Posted April 18, 2021 Looks like Christopher Cross has a grievance or two with GH using "Think Of Laura" back in the day.

Members Forever8 Posted April 18, 2021 Members Share Posted April 18, 2021 I think it is more to this story per usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members FrenchBug82 Posted April 18, 2021 Members Share Posted April 18, 2021 Yes. The legal liability for doing that would be huge. Playing it once without authorization might be a mix up. But keep doing it after the owner of the copyright asks them to stop? No way a big corporation would take such a legal risk considering how much of a gimme a legal case it would be for the victim. Which also brings up: if that was the case, it would have been an easy legal case for him to make for a lot of money. Why would he have done nothing about it? Show-business can be shady but I don't believe this story as told. There has to be more to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members carolineg Posted April 18, 2021 Members Share Posted April 18, 2021 It's a strange thing to bring up 40 years later lol. There has to be more to the story. Maybe he didn't get paid, but GH's use of it helped it become popular, therefore helped record sales. Idk, it seems like the actual use of it on GH and the popularity and eventual record sales would be worth more than royalties from a soap opera? I guess ideally he'd get both, but GH certainly doesn't have the money to pay him now lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members te. Posted April 18, 2021 Members Share Posted April 18, 2021 The easy guess is that his record label owned the rights to the song/master tape, hence could license it to ABC. If there's money to be paid, then corporations are going to go after it. I'm sure Cross got paid in royalities, but maybe didn't receive a direct check from ABC. Plus, his label were likely glad to get the exposure, but I can imagine that his management (and himself) wasn't thrilled with the idea of him becoming some singer best known for putting out songs about fictional characters after Arthur's Theme (ironically, it was his last hit single).

Members Taoboi Posted April 18, 2021 Members Share Posted April 18, 2021 On Monday 4/12 and well...at least it appears to be picking up again. But REALLY?? They let Peter do THAT. A great cliffanger for Friday. And got a reaction for sure. Here for Liz having doubts. Here for a Scotty/Jason teamup (with some Dr. O on the side). And I guess they are going with that SORAS Spencer. Of course by doing that I am going to suspect he is behind who is terrorizing Ava. YASSSS, ANNA!!! TAZER THAT CREEP!!! Though...that look on Peter's face was out of the B&B Liam School of Reactions. So...they are going there. Sasha is gone so it will be a Michael/Willow/Chase triangle. It has not bored me as much as others, but I hope it brings out the Q in Michael again which we have not seen since he disowned Sonny and Carly.

Members Taoboi Posted April 19, 2021 Members Share Posted April 19, 2021 9-13-21 OH? So this is the voice you all were talking about with Peter. Yeeeah that is like nails on a chalkboard. Not scary at all, but it makes me want to slap him a la Cher and tell him to snap out of whatever is making him sound like that. That said...at least WR is committing to playing Peter as the villain. Fully. Now KILL HIM OFF. LOL. There's a lot of great individual scenes going on that I'm liking. But whoever decided to make Portia look more homely need to quit downplaying her beauty. I admit I love that they have been slowly playing this beat with Chase realizing he does not feel well while the other characters are slowly realizing what Peter done in that regards. I can't say I am not curious to see where it goes. On a shallow note, BrookLynn's bodyguard...HELLO!!! It made me miss the days of when Sonny would always have a bodyguard on Carly and how she used to hate that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AbcNbc247 Posted April 20, 2021 Members Share Posted April 20, 2021 Curious as to why they didn't show Bobbie and Florence Gray being ambushed and taken back by Nikolas' men. I thought GH had the budget for stuff like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victoria foxton Posted April 20, 2021 Author Share Posted April 20, 2021 I think they blew their budget with the 5 inmates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members slick jones Posted April 21, 2021 Members Share Posted April 21, 2021 William Lipton spent too much time with RoHo. The faces he's making are so awful. He didn't always do this, did he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AbcNbc247 Posted April 21, 2021 Members Share Posted April 21, 2021 On the bright side, WL doesn't sound like he's going on a manic rant every time he speaks, so maybe he didn't take that much advice from RoHo Please register in order to view this content Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ranger1rg Posted April 22, 2021 Members Share Posted April 22, 2021 i don’t see a bright side here. Lipton’s acting choices are bad, and he’s really regressed as a performer. I don’t know what the hell he’s doing, honestly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
