That's Pearly Shells

Jeez. Do people actually think that the lyrics to "Pearly Shells" were written by native Hawaiians? In English? If you want to complain about it, at least think it through first, and give the actual title of the original Hawaiian song, not the title as given by the authors of the English words.
If you are going to be aggressively politically correct and take offense on the behalf of someone who is not even complaining, at least try not to be a maroon about it.

Do you even know what public domain is? i doubt it!

@DJBell1986 No idea about the legalities of it. It's more the principle of not acknowledging the cutlural authorship of the song in any way and exploiting it for commercial purposes. I doubt the Hawaiian natives who's heritage created this song care much about our westernized "public domain." It just would have been nice, i.e. the right thing to do. They could have exploited the song (yes, that's what they did) while still acknowledging its origins in some way.

Sigh, what memories. Such a sweet song. Kudos to the C&H team for developing such a prize tune. Oh wait, they didn't. They ripped off a native Hawaiin/Filipino tune called "Pearly Shells" without giving due credit. Shame on you, C&H.

@sirmolio How old is the song? I am betting it's in the public domain. Also do you have any proof they didn't get permission from who ever owns the rights to the song if it's not in the public domain?
