However, if he paid for someone else to write the song, got rich off singing it, and then 20 years before he died, the full ownership reverted back to the person who he paid to write it, he'd understand that. He's a smart boy.
There is a difference between being the person who created something, than one who is the face behind selling it. That's like having an actor whine if he stops getting paid for a movie he was in, when someone does a remake later and his part is played by someone younger and new. The actor didn't write the lines, he just said them while being filmed. There is a difference. No need to get pissy about it.
