Aerosmith to House GOP: Don't Use Our Song + bonus VIDEO response to Eric Cantor!

By GottaLaff

Paddy posted the original video here.

Now we have a response:


Inspired by Eric Cantor, I made my own salute to the House Republicans for not voting for Obama's Stimulus Plan.

Oh, and guess what?
Cantor's clip has been pulled from YouTube after a copyright infringement claim made by Stage Three Music, which owns the rights to "Back in the Saddle."

The GOP's use of the tune "was something we, as the publishers, didn't approve and would not have approved without going to the writers," Connie Ashton, director of copyright and licensing at Stage Three, told me. "Aerosmith did not approve of its use and also wanted to have it taken down," she added.

Will these staunch, law-abiding, Amurka-lovin' Republicans never learn?
