Maybe that doesn't.....but this WAS kind of funny. REM sued IBM
for its use of the song, arguing that it did not want to be associated
with the company. Though I believe IBM had recorded its own
version, REM felt that the song had become associated with the
band.
Turns out that REM's version is a cover of a relatively obscure 60's
or 70's tune. No word if REM turned over any part of any settlement
to the original authors.
