Hi, if I enter a recording A of a song B that takes its lyrics from a poem C, I create recording A, works B (type song) and C (type poem). C points to an artist as its writer/lyricist, B points to a composer and to is-based-on C. A is-a-recording-of B. Viewing a medium containing the recording A, I am nicely shown the composer but not the lyricist. In other words, the chain is chased one level, but not two. I'd really like the poem's author to be show. She would be, if she had directly collaborated with the composer... A workaround would be to duplicate the lyricist relation in work B, but duplication and relationship clusters are frowned upon. These are other examples of a similar is-based-on relation: * Using the music of a song with different lyrics (derivative's lyricist should *replace* base's) * Using the music of a song with additional/translated lyrics (derivative's lyricist should be *added* to base's) Any thoughts?
