Chapter titles with song quotes.
Related to my previous question. The first iteration of my novel had chapters start with quotes from songs and the lyricist's name attributed the next line down. What are the mechanics of that? Do I seek permission from the source or is an attribution enough? I removed them until I found out the legality of it.

I think only music in the public domain is free to use for commercial purposes. Other songs are subject to copyright protection and you would need permission from the artist and their label if you want to use them in your own work.
