Is this like a whole gray area thing?
It makes sense with the context in universe and The Beatles exist in universe.
But in reality they also exist and I wouldn’t want to end up in legal trouble in the real world.
I mean if a character is singing their favorite song with their own voice while experiencing tragedy, people wouldn’t just disturb you and say “hey you can’t sing that it’s copyrighted!”
That would be stupid.
This whole thing confuses me. I might do a cover because I actually can play this song. And I can make a high pitched and choked up version on the piano which I’ve already done.
