SONG TITLE(S) with time durations: *

If you’ve co-written all the songs on the album, you need to list every title correctly spelled out (as on the CD); or write in all the titles if the info below is the same. If you have several songs on an album with Lydia, and these have different publishers or differ in other info, you need to submit one form for each song title.

So, for example write "SONG TITLE" (03:33)

INFO ON HOW TO DIVIDE ROYALTY SPILTS

We usually split the royalty 50-50%. That is, 50% to the text writer, and 50% to the composer, unless otherwise specified. If you have a different understanding from this, now is the time to tell me. The same applies for the PUBLISHING interests. If Lydia has also composed music with you, then she will be further entitled to another 25%. So, for example this would be:

LYRIC WRITER:
Lydia Lunch, ASCAP (#1596819): 50%; Publishing 50%
COMPOSER:
Other Person, BMI (#1234567): 50%; Publishing 50%

- or -
