It's either called "Money" or "For The Love Of Money" by The O'Jays. It was originally released in the late 70s.

I didn't really notice. I remember Pink Floyd did a song called Money in the 70s. I think I would have noticed if it were the PF song. I don't understand how different bands can copywrite the same song name.

Yeah ... I'm pretty sure it's "For The Love Of Money."

Pink Floyd wrote "money" which is an entirely different song than "for the love of money" performed by the O'Jays. Try doing a search for songs about money or with "money" in the title and it would have to be 00's if not 000's of songs. Popular subject. I may be wrong but, I think that it's the content of the song (lyrics and music) that are copywrited and not necessarily the name? I believe multiple songs could have the same name and be considered protected work by the respective artists. I've never been wrong about anything before but I could be mistaken about this?

Yeah the PF would have been much cooler but oh well.

As far the copywrite laws go..You cant copywrite song names but you can albums and band names..As well as lyrics and melodies..

It is "For The Love Of Money". Great tune.
Also by the O'Jays, and appropriate here, "Back Stabbers".
