Guess we'll find out in a few weeks, though. With a band as big as Weezer, I’d guess that Activision won’t let it stay up — regardless of changes you might make to the song.

E.g. weezer write and play all of their songs in standard tuning on a guitar but with all of the strings tuned down half a step in E flat opposed to E. If we get a weezer song and transpose it up, will it still be an illegal cover? What’s gonna happen if you create a cover, but it’s in a different key, like a semi-tone or tone higher.

But what happens if you have an original song that is super popular through the system. Does the Behemoth that is Activision Blizzard then own your soul?
