Boing Boing has picked up the story that Australian cricket supporters, The Fanatics, are being threatened by EMI because they say they “breached copyright because it included altered lyrics to songs such as Go West by the Village People and Daydream Believer by The Monkees.” (quote from an ABC article)

I found a copy by hunting through Google. If you want to see how ridiculous such a move by EMI is, then you can grab it here.

I suggest everyone download a copy, print it out, share it, post it to your blog or website.

UPDATE: Here is a torrent of the PDF.

UPDATE: The Fanatics have announced that EMI have retracted the threat of legal action.

After a slight misunderstanding with our good friends at EMI, we’ve been reliably informed that the songbook isn’t in breach of any copyright laws and in turn the songbook is once ahead downloadable and fully legal.
