I won't buy back songs from Jackson: McCartney
Indo-Asian News Service
London, Oct 7 (IANS) The former Beatle Sir Paul McCartney says he will never buy back the rights to his songs with the Beatles from Michael Jackson.
According to contactmusic.com, he says he hates having to pay for songs he himself wrote. Michael Jackson supposedly bought the songs behind McCartney's back in 1985. Jackson is now rumoured to be selling those songs to help clear his debts.
McCartney seems to be reluctant to pay for those songs since the money will be reverted back to him anyway.
He says: "Bono rang me and said, 'Did you hear? He's selling the songs. You should buy them!' Everyone else thinks I should too. But the thing is, I do get some cash from the publishing already. And in a few years more of the rights will be automatically be reverting to me. The only annoying thing is when I tour America I have to pay to play some of my own songs."
