The Ship Song
author: Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds
Come sail your ships around me
And burn your bridges down
We make a little history, baby
Every time you come around
Come loose your dogs upon me
And let your hair hang down
You are a little mystery to me
Every time you come around
We talk about it all night long
We define our moral ground
But when I crawl into your arms
Everything comes tumbling down
Come sail your ships around me
And burn your bridges down
We make a little history, baby
Every time you come around
Your face has fallen sad now
For you know the time is nigh
When I must remove your wings
And you, you must try to fly
Come sail your ships around me
And burn your bridges down
We make a little history, baby
Every time you come around
Come loose your dogs upon me
And let your hair hang down
You are a little mystery to me
Every time you come around

"If the [iTunes music store] was forced to absorb any increase in the ... royalty rate, the result would be to significantly increase the likelihood of the store operating at a financial loss — which is no alternative at all," Cue wrote. "Apple has repeatedly made it clear that it is in this business to make money, and most likely would not continue to operate [the iTunes music store] if it were no longer possible to do so profitably." Apple's share of the digital music market continues to hover over the 75 percent mark — and is expected to top 85 percent this year — but its profit margin on iTunes sales is thin, and an executive told Fortune that he had no doubt an increase in prices per track would result in fewer total purchases from the store. Apple pays around 70 cents per track to the record companies, and those companies turn over 9 of those cents to the music publishers who control the copyrights on those songs.
