It worked for Jim Cummings' short "Thunder Road"
Which song?
But i don't have to pay for the rights or something? I will not play the song on the short film but i'm planning to mention the story and some of the lyrics
Sure. I do it all the time - I have two on my desk right now. Circle of life was sparked by Three Dog Night's 'When I Die' and 'Our Time' sparked by the song 'Volari' by ...? Just be careful about incorporating the actual work into the score without authorization.
Okay Doug, thanks a lot!
