purplemist7777	Did Brenda need to get permission from the Estate to have 17 days on her album? And Blue Limousine?

I don’t know how all of this works but i wanted someone to acknowledge your question because it’s valid. It is possible for some of the friends from the old days the estate turns a blind eye?

Cover songs do not require permission; that was one of Prince's biggest "problems" with covers, although I would be more inclined to think it was a control issue rather than permission, since he did quite a bit of cover work (especially live) post-WB. Only compulsory/mechanical licensing fees and royalties that are automatically taken out due to the licensing that's paid.

Thank you TrickyChristopher. That makes sense. I remember prince talking about that.
