A disagreement because Bing pronounced Istanbul as Ishtanbul? Actually it's Ishtanbul was Conshtantinople now it's Ishtanbul not! Conshtantinople. Mustn't forget our sht's?

People: You do realize that Copyright Laws were not as tight back then as they are now? It was an environment where people played off each other's beats and swing lines. Jazz influenced so much of the music of that era that to say someone copied someone is tantamount to The Muppets copying Fraggle Rock...

This song is a rip-off of "Putting on the Ritz". Seriously, did they think we wouldn't notice?
