TUNESAT Lennon Ono PR 6-4-12 John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s Lenono Music & Ono Music Select TuneSat to Monitor Songs on Television and the Internet June 4, 2012 – Lenono Music and Ono Music, the publishing companies that control the solo material of John Lennon and Yoko Ono, are using TuneSat to monitor the use of their iconic songs on broadcast TV stations and websites around the world. TuneSat’s proprietary technology will fingerprint all of the works from these catalogs and track their use on hundreds of broadcast channels in 13 countries as well as streaming audio, video, podcasts, flash, and other multimedia files on millions of websites. They will then be able to view detections in real time via TuneSat’s secure web portal, providing them with full transparency and accountability of when and where their music is used in each instance. “John and I were both extremely detailed artists that put a lot of thought into not only how our music sounded but also how it was presented,” said Yoko Ono. “With the sheer number of broadcast TV stations and websites popping up around the world, it’s impossible to keep track of where and how our music is being used without the use of technology, which means it is often used in ways we don’t support. Now with TuneSat, I will be able to monitor the use of our tracks no matter where they’re played and make sure they are represented in the proper way.” “John Lennon and Yoko Ono are true legends. It’s a privilege to work with them at TuneSat,” said Scott Schreer, CEO and founder of TuneSat. Added Chris Woods, co-founder and TuneSat COO, “Up to this point, the rise of technology has meant that content owners have lost more and more control and knowledge of when and where their music is being played. TuneSat is excited to reverse that trend by using our technology to restore that control and knowledge to two of the biggest names in the music business.” Since launching in 2009, TuneSat has helped rights holders of all sizes recover millions of dollars in revenue that might otherwise have been lost due to outdated reporting procedures and copyright infringement. With headquarters in New York City and satellite offices in Europe, TuneSat is actively monitoring hundreds of TV channels and millions of websites around the world. TuneSat serves many of the world’s premier publishing companies, record labels, broadcast networks, production companies, film studios, advertising agencies, and production music libraries, along with many composers, artists, managers, music supervisors, and others who need to monitor and protect copyrights. The Zappa Family Trust currently uses the service to monitor the extensive catalog of legendary rock star Frank Zappa, and NBC Sports uses TuneSat to track music usage during the Olympics, including Beijing and the upcoming London games. John Lennon and Yoko Ono are two of music’s most iconic modern artists. Following his tenure with The Beatles, Lennon released a flurry of hit solo albums, including John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band, Imagine, and Double Fantasy, many of which were collaborations with Ono, his wife and musical partner. Together and separately, the pair produced songs including “Imagine,” “Give Peace a Chance,” and “Happy Xmas (War Is Over)” that carried a message of love and unity that continues to reverberate today. Since Lennon’s death in 1980, Ono has fought to ensure that the music they created would live on, working with record label EMI to remaster and rerelease all eight of Lennon’s solo albums in 2010 to celebrate his 70th birthday. The project also included the creation of a single-disc greatest hits collection, a 4-CD collection based on the key themes of Lennon’s music, and an 11-CD box set featuring all eight Lennon albums, a disc of previously unreleased home demos and outtakes, an EP of non-album singles and B-sides, and much more. About TuneSat LLC TuneSat employs its exclusive audio fingerprint technology to deftly detect music use on television broadcasts and the Internet. Led by tech-savvy composers and producers Scott Schreer and Chris Woods, TuneSat detects music in even the noisiest of broadcast environments, including under dialogue, sound effects, or voiceovers, and provides unrivaled, accurate reporting to its clients. With a TuneSat subscription, access to worldwide detection data is available 24/7/365 through a secure online portal. Detailed reports provide valuable information about when, where and how much music was used. TuneSat is actively monitoring hundreds of broadcast channels and millions of websites around the world.

  • Happy Christmas (War Is Over!)
    HAPPY CHRISTMAS (WAR IS OVER!) On March 20th 1969 John Lennon married Yoko Ono. Knowing their marriage would be a huge press event, John and Yoko decided to use the publicity to promote world peace. They spent their honeymoon in the presidential suite (Room 902) at the Amsterdam Hilton Hotel for a week between March 25 and 31, inviting the world's press into their hotel room every day between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. It was their non-violent way of protesting against wars and promoting peace. Their second Bed-In took place in Montreal, Canada on May 26th 1969. During their seven-day stay, they sang the peace anthem "Give Peace a Chance", and recorded it in the hotel room on June 1st. On December 15th 1969 John and Yoko spread their messages of peace with billboards reading "WAR IS OVER! If You Want It - Happy Christmas From John and Yoko". These billboards went up in twelve major world cities : New York, Los Angeles, Toronto, Rome, Athens, Amsterdam, Berlin, Paris, London, Tokyo, Hong Kong and Helsinki. Although “Happy Xmas (War Is Over)” was apparently about the Vietnam War, it proved a universal message understood worldwide. VOCABULAIRE : 1.

  • The Beatles and the Crisis of Self-Identity
    Sosland Journal 77 THE BEATLES AND THE CRISIS OF SELF-IDENTITY Jared Gutzmer “Ringo- a lovely performer. George- a mystical unre- alized talent. But John and Paul, Saints John and Paul, were, and made, and aureoled and beatifi ed and eternalized the concept that shall always be known, remembered and deeply loved as The Beatles” -Leonard Bernstein The Beatles are one of the most popular bands of all time. This is an undisputed fact no matter the location. They were so popular that in America, they had to stop touring due to the screaming fans which caused the band not to be able to hear themselves. Never before was there a group that was so incredibly popular in history. This popularity and other fac- tors led the members of the Beatles to change as individuals and as a group as they matured musically and mentally. Their identity shifted from a group identity to a self-identity. From the Beatles fi rst album, Please Please Me, to their last, Let It Be, the shift in their identity can be seen through their music and the appearances that led to individualism and eventually their downfall. 78 Sosland Journal The Music “It would not seem quite so likely that the accompany- ing fever known as Beatlemania will also be success- fully exported. On this side of the Atlantic it is dazed stuff.” -Jack Gould, New York Times television critic The Beatles music and lyrics changed drastically from their fi rst to last album due to adapting to a changing soci- ety, musical maturity, and their increased popularity.

  • Apple Label Discography
    Apple Label Discography 100-800 series (Capitol numbering series) Apple Records was formed by John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr in 1968. The Apple label was intended as a vehicle for the Beatles, their individual recordings and the talent they discovered. A great deal of what appeared on Apple was pretty self indulgent and experimental but they did discover a few good singers and groups. James Taylor recorded his first album on the label. Doris Troy recorded a good soul album and there are 2 albums by John Lewis and the Modern Jazz Quartet. The Beatlesque group Badfinger also issued several albums on the label, the best of which was “Straight Up”. Apple Records fell apart in management chaos in 1974 and 1975 and a bitter split between the Beatles over the management of the company. Once the lawyers got involved everybody was suing everybody else over the collapse. The parody of the Beatles rise and the disintegration of Apple is captured hilariously in the satire “All You Need Is Cash: the story of the Rutles”. The Apple label on side 1 is black with a picture of a green apple on it, black printing. The label on side 2 is a picture of ½ an apple. From November 1968 until early 1970 at the bottom of the label was “MFD. BY CAPITOL RECORDS, INC. A SUBSIDIARY OF CAPITOL INDUSTRIES INC. USA”. From Early 1970 to late 1974, at the bottom of the label is “MFD. BY APPLE RECORDS” From late 1974 through 1975, there was a notation under the “MFD.

Brown Department of Mathematics and Statistics Dalhousie University [email protected] Ryan B. Song School of Engineering and Applied Sciences Harvard University [email protected] Abstract The songwriting duo of John Lennon and Paul McCartney, the two founding mem- bers of the Beatles, composed some of the most popular and memorable songs of the last century. Despite having authored songs under the joint credit agreement of arXiv:1906.05427v1 [cs.SD] 12 Jun 2019 Lennon-McCartney, it is well-documented that most of their songs or portions of songs were primarily written by exactly one of the two. Furthermore, the authorship of some Lennon-McCartney songs is in dispute, with the recollections of authorship based on previous interviews with Lennon and McCartney in conflict. For Lennon-McCartney songs of known and unknown authorship written and recorded over the period 1962-66, we extracted musical features from each song or song portion. These features consist of the occurrence of melodic notes, chords, melodic note pairs, chord change pairs, and four-note melody contours. We developed a prediction model based on variable ∗Address for correspondence: Department of Statistics, Harvard University, 1 Oxford Street, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA.
