Because MJ (well his estate) and Sony/ATV own the copyrights, Paul has to pay for the right to perform the songs live. In 2006 McCartney said, "You know what doesn't feel very good, is going on tour and paying to sing all my songs. Every time I sing 'Hey Jude,' I've got to pay someone." In this case since Paul owns the copyright to pretty much all of Buddy Holly's songs then he didn't have to pay to perform this song.

must say the fake paul mccartney is pretty good
-
@bagohotdish correct! I said that in my original post ---> "Just realized...he has to pay royalties for his songs but he probably owns the rights to this song....he owns a great mayority if not all of Buddy Holly's catalogue"
-
Paul McCartney actually own's Buddy Holly's publishing catalogue. He doesn't owe anybody anything.
-
@hitgu1 unortunately not. its different if you're a famous musicina playing a concert for money than an amateur playing for fun. even if a grocery store plays someone's music they have to pay them its that comlicated these days. becuase the music industry rights and money and stuff is so complex, that's one reason The Beatles lost rights to many of their songs early on as well as Paul later.

@hitgu1 I'm no copyright/publishing attorney, but from what I've read about it, technically performers should pay royalties to the composer and publisher when there's a profit being made. Paul's obviously charging money and making a profit to have people hear his performance. So with the Lennon/McCartney catalog I guess Paul pays himself? as co-composer but also has to pay publisher - MJ's estate and Sony/ATV. And it totally applies when he sells DVDs of his concerts.

@crazy4beatles any one can perform any song live with out paying
-
Great song - terrible acoustics.
-
@katrin2801 both.

its on DVD- Paul played it at the 1979 Buddy Holly tribute concert where lots of famous musicians gathered to sing Buddy Holly's songs including Paul,Linda,Wings, Bob Dylan, and more
