    If you got royalties everytime your 30 year old song was played, wouldn’t you promote it to death?

      Nah, at a certain point you don’t need any more money and it’s just pathological hoarding.

      As a hectomillionaire three times over, she probably passed that point before she even released that particular song.

        spoken like a true poors.

        right up there with “money can’t buy happiness”.

        you’re right, at some point it’s not about the money. it’s about the legacy.
